Hunter's comment

Finally, someone, had the guts to explore the potential of water cooling PSUs and for the first time to mass produce a good quality (80 PLUS certification) water-cooled PSU that really can bring PC enthusiasts to a whole new level. RGB lighting and sleeved modular cables. Top quality for a top price! This beauty is not cheap... 699 USD!

There is also a Limited Edition (of which I am not sure if ended already) that comes with a standalone water cooling kit to cool the PSU, in case you don't have one already.

I would say it's just the beginning but being able to sustain 600W with zero noise and good efficiency is usually hard. Plus, you have the ability Power Overclock, squeezing an additional 200W (up to 1400W total) if using water cooling.

Water cooling is more of a aesthetical feature rather than any solution to a cooling problem. Power Supplies before are working fine and they don't post any overheating problem.

PROS :

  • If your PC has water cooling system already this is a nice addition to one of your tube outlets running in the water pump
  • 1200W is enough to power any monster gaming pc out there, 700W is even enough to power 2 GTX 1080 GPUS
  • In-box cables - This is a big plus especially some PSUs need to have cables that you need to buy separately

CONS :

  • Price - 699$ for a PSU is definitely not an attractive price especially if you are on a tight budget. 699$ is so expensive that you can buy 1 graphics card and a motherboard already
  • No leakage guarantee - One thing is you don't want to see is your Pumping Station leaking out water from your CPU, seeing that this PSU has no leakage guarantee will make me think twice.

This PSU is pretty expensive for 699$ even if it is 1200W, you ca even buy one platinum PSU at half the price.

For now yes... still aesthetical with some minor capabilities (like overclocking power stuff and other marketing directions on that sense). But whenever noise is a problem, there is no fan that can solve the problem, I mean.. at high-end consumption. Also, this PSU is not for the average consumer (meaning 2x 1080 is not a reality, but instead 3 or 4 might be more, or combos between AMD/Nvidia like I have and or other stuff), so the reason for the price.

Either way, I liked your plain and simple pros/cons. Some I admit they are a bit harsh... given that this is a "unique" mass-produced product on the market. But, giving that a thought. You are still right.

Very interesting hunt but price is too expensive :x

I agree. For me, it's just something no one ever attempted (successfully) to mass produce. Some other stuff too, but highly selective.

Congratulations!
