ADATA, also present at CES, has unveiled its first hybrid heatsink prototypes. The company is compacting an AIO in the form of an aircooling heatsink… A wataircooling of sorts!
The concept of wataircooling is becoming a reality at ADATA!
Basically, the company is taking up a concept already in Apaltek‘s catalogue, an AIO in the form of a tower. As you can see, this has a copper base at the bottom with a stack of aluminum fins just above. There are also channels for liquid circulation, and a pump to circulate it. The pump is mounted at the top of the heatsink.
When it comes to ventilation, the company opts for its Vento Pro windmills, Nidec Gentle Typhoons produced under license. These can be found on Amazon at a price of ~€26. In short, this ventilation will blow on the fins to cool the CPU.
It remains to be seen when this solution will be available. Note that ADATA claims a cooling capacity of 280W with this solution. However, if this heatsink lives up to its promises, it will save us a great deal of space, as dissipating 280W with aircooling means that the dimensions will soon be very large!
