turboplex USB - departure into a new era?
Thursday, March 16th 2006, 3:57pm
It is three years ago that the turboplex USB was handed in to the german patent office.
Download the patent document
It was a time where nobody was thinking about the combinaton of a cooling block with the pump. Aqua Computer entered absolute new ground. Such a product is technically very challenging because no vibrations should be audible.
Meanwhile some competitors like Intel have similar solutions, so Aqua Computer want to give you an insight in their development. The photo shows the level of development before approx. 2 years.
The capacity of the pump can reach 3 meters pressure head and the water rotates directly over the ground plate. The cooling capacity beats all available waterblocks with a passive design.
However, a soundless operation have not been achieved yet.
Just the question: how many audibility is acceptable?

Quoted from "Stephan"
Regarding the hypersys a new revision will be released until middle of the year. But it's a different design to the shown version.
The turboplex in the shown version will not be released. The pictures a more than two years old and the design has changed since that time. But maybe we will release the current version.
Do I see an Aquabox and an Aquaero LT stuffed into the exterior housing?
So how about some specs on the TurboPlex as to noise generated and more importantly something to backup the claim that it will beat any waterblock on the market?

looks very nice... heres an idea.
You should try and make one very quiet one (that isn't particularly powerfull). Then one that is quiet (no louder than a normal pump - e.g. 1046) but is really powerfull. This I would buy without a doubt - the quiet one i would use for a media computer.
Good luck (use my ideas
)
