    Tul announces Thermaltake cooled X800 GT

    The X800 GT Evo's cooling system comprises everything a normal watercooling system would have. It has a radiator, reservoir, waterblock and pump, all scaled down to fit in as small a space as possible.

    That's really cool and clever (as said, good for crampt cases) but I have a feeling that this wouldn't me much more efficient than an arctic silencer

    I don't really see the advantage of moving a heatsink equivalent to an artic silencer a few expansion slots further.
    On top of that it adds a complete but tiny watercooling system, and a quite small fan which should be quite noisy to reach decent cooling performance.
    But still, that's just speculation on one picture.

    It would be good for a SLI setup IF it was efficient enough...
    For those setups with few slots between the 16xPCIE slots where the artic silencer cant fit...

    Interesting idea and very compact for water cooling, however it's a pitty they didnt choose to cool the memory aswell - like the DD NV water block. That would really have set it off as a good product I think.

    Wonder how it does if it was adapted for CPU use? Like an Athlon 64 3000/3200 venice?
