Kingston’s new Viking-like memory cooler

Liquid-cooling never actually go big in computer enthusiast market. Only a handful would go over the edge to get that few ounce of boost. But Kingston plans to spread the love of liquid-cooling to the mass, well at least more enthusiast and gamers at least. They’ve just given their premium HyperX branch some refreshing drinks with the added ‘H2O’ suffix. Their approach is different from OCZ’s fin-tastic Flex series though, as the new Kingston Hyper H20 modules keep their cool via tube alone, which admittedly means more space in your case as you carefully bump their clocks up from the stock 2,000MHz (or 2,133MHz) and CL9-11-9-27 timings at 1.65 volts.

The new water-edition HyperX modules come in dual-channel (4GB) and triple-channel (6GB) flavours at $157 and $235 respectively. Maybe you should list them in your upcoming Christmas rig’s setup list of hardware choice.
