That’s the trend in the industry making use of water or liquid cooling system to make your computer’s hardware components and peripherals to stay cool in order to achieve best performance.
We’ve seen the world’s fastest RAM, the water-cooled hard drive and now it’s the mainboard this time, by ASUSTek Computer. They’d just launched a few days ago its ROG (Republic Of Gamers) series of motherboards - Biltz Extreme/ Blitz Formula.
These newly announced motherboards feature the company’s Crosslinx Technology, which is dubbed as providing increased performance for dual graphics. The Crosslinx is best for eliminating graphics data bottleneck found in other x16, x4 solutions, which are definitely needed for increasing performance for smoother gameplay. As mentioned, the board’s cooling system is making use of water to achieve the cooling purpose instead of fan. This water-based cooling system simply produces no noise, which is a 0db design. The building block of the cooling system consists of the Fusion Block system and a chipset waterblock that adds onto a power user’s existing watercooling circuit to achieve better cooling effect.

[...] It seems to be a new kind of cooling method for your computers, going to hit the industry instead of the water cooling method that we’ve seen before. The new cooling method is ionic cooling, which was developed by researchers over at Purdue University. And it’s claimed to be 250% more effective. The method consists of a “wind engine”, which needs high voltage for generating positively charged ions and then these ions are spread by wind toward a negatively charged wire. If this “wind engine” is attached at one end of a computer chip and the wire is at the other end, the ions will effectively sluice across the chip and keep airflow clean and constant. [...]
