Advanced water cooled GPU solutions

High-performance GPUs are the most sought-after component by gaming enthusiasts for their ability to drive a visually rich and ultra-smooth gaming experience. To ensure maximal performance, GPU water cooling is essential. We worked closely with our OEM partners to ensure our AIO GPU solutions provided the most value for users. They are often overclocked right out of the box for long and exhilarating gaming sessions at peak performance.

What is a GPU?

GPU is an abbreviation of Graphics Processing Unit which is an essential part of your computer. The GPU is used in a variety of applications, including gaming, 3D rendering, and video editing. They are also used in many high-performance computing applications. Improving the performance of your GPU can provide a significant performance boost for your PC.

Why is a water cooled GPU important?

A water cooling solution is important to improve the performance of your graphics card. Furthermore, a water cooled GPU does not only improve your graphics card but can also help to improve the overall performance of a computer. It also prevents the GPU from overheating and potentially damaging the computer.

How does GPU water cooling work?

GPU water cooling works by circulating water around the GPU to dissipate heat. The water is typically circulated through a radiator, which helps to dissipate the heat.

Asetek’s GPU water cooling enables Next Gen Architectures from AMD and NVIDIA

A high-performing GPU is important for several reasons. First of all, it allows for more realistic and smooth graphics in video games. Secondly, it can speed up the processing of complex graphics algorithms. Finally, it can improve the overall performance of a computer.

Due to the ever-increasing demands of the latest graphic solutions from both AMD and NVIDIA, the importance of water cooling for GPUs is on the rise. NVIDIA 30-Series Ampere and AMD 6000 Series RDNA2 graphic architectures each bring an immense gen-over-gen performance spike nearly twice that of the previous generation. These considerable gains have led to a ravenous set of GPUs, commanding up to 350W TDP. The added power consumption produces added heat, and that’s where Asetek’s legacy GPU water cooling comes in; GPU water cooling uses water instead of air resulting in an improved and quieter experience.

What is thermal throttling?

Thermal throttling is a process where the performance of your computer decreases when it gets too hot. If a GPU cooling solution cannot manage the thermal load then core temps will rise above the solution’s designated TDP. This leads to GPU throttling, and here you will experience a cutback on the performance of the GPU. Core clocks and VRAM performance are reduced until the heat load is under the thermal limit. This causes the user to experience a noticeable dip in framerates, uneven frame pacing, and an overall loss of immersion while in your favorite games.

Does GPU water cooling prevent GPU throttling?

Water-cooled GPU solutions from Asetek have easily managed these extreme thermal loads to provide the best way to combat GPU thermal throttling. A water cooling solution for your graphics card is crucial to keep GPU temperatures well below the thermal limit. This successfully combats GPU throttling to maintain peak performance. The result is seamless motion that keeps you in the game and boosts productivity for creative professionals. Smooth, consistent, and virtually silent operation are other added benefits of Asetek’s GPU water cooling that extends the life of the GPU.

What are the benefits of a water-cooled GPU?

1) Water cooled GPUs are more effective at cooling the GPU than air cooled GPUs.

2) Water cooled GPUs can be overclocked more easily than air cooled GPUs. 

3) Water cooled GPUs produce less noise than air cooled GPUs. 

4) Water cooled GPUs are more durable than air cooled GPUs. 

5) Water cooled GPUs typically have a longer lifespan than air cooled GPUs.
