I love water cooling all except the price :P

This is actually super cool. You get most of the customization and reuse of a custom loop but with the convenience and price of an AIO. If they end up making a CPU block you could maybe have a complete loop for less than $500.

jesus christ that hang nail is insane

It will all come down to licensing costs and licensor support. Lynk need to make this super-cheap and work proactively to create models for coolers for all new GPUs.

This is the coolest thing ever. I would love to see this come too market. The ability to just swap the cooling block is genius. I would buy this in a second.

As a Open watercooling loop person this is amazing. :) Thanks A Lot Roman.

Oh, good, this is getting more coverage! I hope this takes. Thanks so much!

They need to make those connectors easily available for custom builds as well. One of the reasons I decided to go with Alphacool Eisbaer + Eiswolf was that it was super easy to just get more connectors from them and expand the loop with an existing random radiator I had extra.

This is great, and I hope that LYNK find a way to go it alone and make this a standard that ALL manufacturers use. I'm air cooled all the way, but if this path was available, I'd consider it. :)

This is such a cool concept. I have tried custom water cooling once and then reverted to CPU AIO and GPU air cooling after about a year. This may reignite my hobby...

What an amazing idea. You could potentially sell your old plate, and buy the next one to offset the cost too. I love this.

Thanks for also helping these people get some coverage. I saw someone else mention them(I think Paul) and this product. It looks interesting.

This will be incredible! All the positives of water cooling and few downsides.

Saw this on Pauls video, good job giving it more breadth.

Interesting idea. Two potential problems. 1) graphics card manufacturers will probably try to charge a massive premium for a the cards as water cooled cards are regarded as high end. 2) keeping the radiator if you try to sell on the card will make it very difficult to sell, and the buyer would need the radiator, so you would either have to incude it in the sale (removing one of the perks of the system), or the buyer would have to buy one separately, and i doubt many would be prepared to do that, so selling the card on might be an issue.

This is a fantastic idea, I hope it makes it to the DIY market!

very cool! we have needed this for a long time! i will be buying one when i can finally get a card that is worth buying.

The only problem I see is keeping it filled, as you change blocks you will be losing fluid, so unless the block is pre filled with fluid witch I wouldn't recommended as there is no way of knowing how long it was kept in storage. Or if the new block came with a temp reservoir that you could hook up to cycle more flued into the system and then remove the reservoir and hook back up to the block.

This is looking really good.

This is really cool. I love this! ^^

This looks awesome!

I've been waiting a long time to see something like this.

This makes the Mo-ra look like a sound investment. It's huge and quiet and doesn't take up space in the case. - and it will last for many builds.

I think it’s a great idea 💡 thanks for sharing with us

Probably the most exciting cooling product I've seen in a long time.

Really like the idea and hope they can bring it to market.

I like how they save space by having the pump integrated into the radiator. Great for a SSF build .

This looks like it can be adapted to be the quick clean and simple solution to water cool any pc system from novice to expert who doesn't have time to do a custom loop anymore. Those connectors seem very clever I hope someone with a good customer focused attitude like Artic pick this up and run with it.

This is amazing, hope LYNK will sell the LYNK+ direct to consumers for DIY. Vendors seem to like selling underspecced AIOs but charging top tier card money (e.g. GB 3080/90). Would love to see this available in market asap, saves me going custom for 7900xtx

This is very exciting, really hope it makes its way to mass market

This looks like something I would DEFINITELY buy.

I love this concept!

When Roman explained the process to expand the loop I got really excited thinking about possibilities!

Gute Arbeit mit deinen Videos

that's dope !! hopefully release date gonna be soon enough, easy to mount, and price tag not inflated 🙏

Amazing engineering!

This is awesome.

This product concept is BRILLIANT! 🤯

Love it, I used to use those large hydraulic quick disconnect fittings, they look very similar to the internals of the Link ones, they worked great but were to big and cumbersome, I like this, its far more compact, hopefully they do a similar setup for the CPU as well, then we can choose to do one large loop or two separate smaller loops.

I like this concept. Interesting indeed.

Just what i am looking for, lets hope it comes to market

Very excited

Really like this

This is really cool I would love to turn my msi gaming x trio (4090) into a water cooled card using this tech.

I still think they should come out with a reservoir and CPU block for this. No fiddly fittings or bending of acrylics. Just click em together.

Would be cool if that hotspot was in the high 50's, maybe low 60's.

Pretty interesting concept. It would kind of essentially convert the way a GPU is sold to the way a CPU is sold. Almost eveyone who buys a CPU, buys a cooler for it (or has to depending on CPU choice). I look at the block on the GPU with this as kind of like the CPU TIM. So you buy a GPU and then a cooler to fit to it, just like CPUs. As a concept anyway. In this situation that wouldn't be as modular in the sense that you could use different cooler brands at that point. However, the concept is there. Which in some ways sounds like a bad thing, having to now buy your own cooler for your GPU, but you'd get better cooling and be able to transfer your cooler to your next GPU upgrade easily. It would pay off in the end for sure.

Very interesting. My only concern is being able to refill it. Otherwise this is one of those ideas that could be a game changer. I'm sure there are other concerns that others might see as well, but given the current state I'm sure they could be worked on and improved.

I love this solution and I hope video card manufacturers partner with them to include this as an option. I would even pay more for a copper version with addition fin cooling.

Id liked to have seen how the combining of the radiators worked, Id also like it if they set up some CPU blocks to be compatible with the system.

I have never considered water cooling my GPU until I saw this product. It looks really good. This is why I watch and subscribe to your channel Roman. That as well as your cats, of course... :P

I Need this in my Life ! TAKE MY MONEY!!!

I was sorta scratching my head for a lot of this until the end when you mentioned the AIO being a one-time buy. That's the headline here. Really good idea.

Interesting concept

Good for environment, good for our pockets = Companies don't like. Less consumerism.

very cool!

that is AWESOME! do they have an idea of when it will be availble on the market?

I love it , more accurate sensor placement also inside of block sensor / stand alone power system for sensors 3.3 / 5 +- fluxes darn Naomi unit taught me this. Give the sensor pcb a stand alone power brick for no sync issues

We want this !

People(maybe just me?) have been wanting GPU coolers to be reusable like CPU coolers for so long. This would absolutely be revolutionary if it catches on! I do prefer air cooler tho, imagine reusable air cooler on GPUs. Heck, a tower style GPU cooler. Twin tower build.

The main thing I was wondering about is filling it up, is there a fillport and how easy will it be to refill for an unexpected customer? Most cheaper aio I had to dispatch at one point as they started running out of liquid and it not being worth the time to refill the loop after years of service. Refilling was just too much work without a proper fillport.

Cool idea

Amazing but could we (easily) replace the pump if it fails? This would be even more awesome if they'll also make compatible CPU waterblock, one step further to reuse the "AIO" part! Just saying, if it's really land to consumer market and push it a little further, they could literally bury air-cooling with this...

i first saw this in pauls hardware video and absolutely this will be a success a no brainer and very likely it will become as used a part a the current CPU AIO`s.

Dang. I had to run a few quick benchmarks to see what temps I was running now, and on a custom-looped liquid-metaled 5700xt pulling 187 watts on the core in getting GPU@52c and Hotspot@72c. They are pulling far more wattage for similar temps. I'm deeply impressed. This could easily compete with the best and simultaneously be something my wife could put together. Aces.

Thinking outside the box and everyone wins. We need more hardware manufacturers with this type of foresight. Helps them, helps us all!

I already wanna buy it 😊

Really looking forward to it. LC from other company are insane. Please have RGB and non-RGB model as well

Exactly like in a factory. Pipes with cool water running on the walls, and if you buy a new machine you just connect it to the cooling system and you're done.

Alphacool did this 10 years ago having the GPU block out of copper and everything else out of Aluminium. Even did AIO versions

Id say will the one of the best product's out , I can't wait till it goes to Market.

Totally onboard with this piece of smart engineering. Acer you ready to enter the market ?

interesting idea

That modularity is begging for a CPU block. A plug-and-play full loop would be sick. Seems like the future of cooling. Can't wait!

This is excellent. I currently own a 7900xtx but I would wait until I buy the next gen card.

If the price is right this could be great. It's basically a less costly take on the discontinued EK MLC Phoenix system I've had customized in a rig for 3 years. I do really like the hidden QD connectors and the air pockets are very interesting. My EK system has permeated coolant and even though it has a standard fill port on the radiator reservoir, getting bubbles out is an hour long circus routine. It's hard to believe this will never need servicing but perhaps an AIO glycol mix solves that. The nice thing about the EK setup is it's all standard parts and connectors. I have the original nickel-copper GPU block feeding into an Optimus CPU block and an additional 360 rad. Even the integrated pump could easily be swapped out if it fails. I got it on clearance but the full price for these was ridiculous which is why it never took off. This will need to be very competitive or I fear it'll be extremely hard to justify.

very neat

With my Gigabyte 4080 there is a large hole (for the GPUs Aluminium fins in the bottom end casing for air to pass through (its facing up plugged in on the far right of the GPU) , by adding 3 intake fans at the bottom of my case under my GPU, and 2 intakes on the right side of my PC, and 1 more fan sitting on the Graphics card flush on top of the hole. I managed to knock 12 degrees Celsius off my GPU loaded and idle by doing the above, drawing air from the bottom of the case - through the GPUs aluminium fin stack to the fan on top of the graphics card drawing the air through the fins. Cheers.

I have the Eiswolf2 and wondered about adding the CPU AIO with compatible quick connect.

A radiator with integrated pump barrow makes several with a standard waterblock has the long term use with user replaceable parts. If this isn't half the price of the custom AIO already available can't see it as a option.

Making a connector with G 1/4" threads on one side and these quick connects on the other would allow you to use these cheaper cards in a custom loop, which would be pretty great.

Fluid temp will be thermal transfer indication

Holy shit this is very cool. Seems very well though out also. Edit- where to buy NOW ?!?!? Good shit Roman.

This is very interesting and would be an easy way to get into custom loops in a way. If they also made CPU blocks and a reservoir that went with this, along with bigger rads for both 120 and 140 fan sizes, that'd be awesome. Only downside with this currently is selling on the GPU. You'd need to have the Lynk+ set up or whatever it's possibly called in the future. A kit could be made to allow for GPU block to be adapted to a usual custom loop but would need to also have an aluminium CPU block and rads or have a liquid that is ok with mixed metals. I'd be very interested in seeing what comes of this though

Love it. My only question is how easy is it to fill the loop. Other than that this seems bonkers

That splinter gave me anxiety

If they can make this single slot, it would be really cool.

I'd love to see them partner with arctic for this. Modularity of the design is good.

Cheaper water blocks - I'm all for it

amazing idea. however you did not explain how to fill the loop with coolant?

Where was this when I was looking for an AIO-like pump+rad+res combo 2 years ago for my hybrid watercooled laptop mod! All that stuffing around trying to get a 3D printed bracket for a DC-LT could have been saved

Yes, take my money, please!

i really like this. i don't care about aio for the cpu, but for the gpu i find it necessary. only thing bothering me is the scenario where you chain the radiators together. as the connectors have a 90º bend, that would result in a 180º bend or a strange zigzag, which sounds impractical.

Knowing the pc market this will be moderately priced and still be more than an entry level buyer will want to spend

That's actually cool! The water blocks for custom water cooling have insane stupid pricing and are pain when it comes to maintenance. This solution on the other hand seems like something what we've been missing for years. It looks like a new golden standard for all the AIOs.

They should power the pump and fans through the GPU power and have the cable inside one of the tube sleeves, they already have connectors on the quick disconnects, so the pump and fans can be controlled by the GPU, also fewer wires.

I think they have missed something - 2 pumps in series increases the pressure in the system but with a unit only having to overcome 1 water block it means that multiple pumps (when using multiple rads) will need to be regulated to compensate. I also thought that pumps were more efficient as a pull (post rad) rather than a push (pre rad) config even in a closed loop

Nice AIO!

Great idea. Down the line the "GPU Plate" will end up copper/nickel/acetate with RGB. The only way to get REAL savings, though, is to be able to buy a video card WITHOUT an air cooler on it. Can we do that now? Thanks for bringing this to our attention, Roman.

i imagine they already have a cpu block in develpment as well imagine you can keep reusing the parts upgrading where needed but then may as well be a custom loop?
