corsairh50-sbAs computer processors get faster one of the inevitable side effects of the increase in performance is that the processors run hotter. Many PC enthusiasts already know that to overclock their CPU too much means that they need better cooling and liquid is often the first step taken past air cooling.

Corsair has announced a new high performance liquid cooling system called the H50. The system is completely enclosed so there is no refilling or messing about with coolant near your computer. The device is compatible with both AMD and Intel processors and features a 120mm radiator and a copper plate for the CPU.

Cooler Master HyperZ600 BlackCooler Master may be most well known for its cool computer cases, but it also makes a line of other gear including cooling products and more. As CPUs have increased their performance, the cooling demands have increased. This means cooling products are larger and often much noisier.

Last month I talked a bit about the limited edition Cooler Master Cosmos Black case bundle. Cooler Master has announced that a special, exclusive HyperZ600 CPU cooler will be part of the bundle with the Cosmos Black. The cooler is all black and adds new cooling features in addition to the black color scheme.

Cool yourself with a water-cooled shirt

Cool yourself with a water-cooled shirt
This shirt is cool as far as temperature goes, not cool as far as looks. Unless you’re into a sort of old mattress look. It’s a t-shirt with a water cooling system to keep you from overheating. It’s got an inlet and an outlet on the fifty feet of rubber hose that connect to a pump.

The water circulates and you get to sit in the summer heat without needing air conditioning. It was actually designed to be used by race car drivers. No word on price, but it’s probably pretty expensive. You could probably make your own and actually give it some style. Even the still-suits in Dune had more style then this shirt, plus you could drink your own fluids.
