Today, Corsair unveiled its Hydro
Series H50 CPU Cooler at Computex that it designed hand-in-hand with the guys
at Asetek for about six months.
According to TweakTown, Asetek
contacted Corsair about a year ago to discuss plans for reselling one of its
CPU coolers. Corsair thought of a better idea, and decided to work directly
with Asetek to improve the design. As a result, the Hydro Series H50 was
formed.
Corsair showed off a thermal comparison
between a Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme and the H50 running a Core i7 on the EVGA X58 SLI Classified at 3.97GHz with 1.25v under load with Prime95. The TRUE managed to keep the CPU at around
79C while the H50 kept it at a much cooler 64C.
TweakTown published a video preview
that can be found here.
