    The only thing dumber than the concept as a whole is whoever approved the PR picture with only 1 of the 2 water blocks connected.

    Unfortunately we live in a time where there's a market for this RGB stuff. There are people that go nuts for it. :(

    While ram does not get very hot and water cooling certainly does't do anything for performance I can still understand this move for astetics. However if you are going to build something like this at least include some high end memory and not some middle of the road 3200 hynix memory.

    RGB is like uPVC windows were like in the 80's; marketing gold dust

    Corsair's "RGB RAM minus the actual RAM" wins the dumb product award for the rest of forever

    Well for anyone getting a water cooled PSU now you can also cool your RAM.

    Why are they putting a liquid cooler on C16 3200MHz RAM?
  • rahvin - Wednesday, January 9, 2019 - link

    That was my thought as well. Get some C15 in there at a minimum.

    Throw it on the pile of stupid ideas that came out of 2019's CES. Its a pretty big pile already, but I'm certain we can make room for a useless RGB RAM cooler.

    Well, can't they create all chips (Mobo, CPU, PSU, RAM, GPU, etc.) water-proof and make it submersible, say you can immerse the entire system in a aqua tank with running water in a closed loop for better thermal management :)

    Up next: water cooled USB ports.

    I want a water cooled 3,5" FDD!

    Pretty lousy ICs for a $250 16GB kit. I was expecting 3200MHz C14.
