No-maintenance operation

Traditional water cooling solutions require constant upkeep to prevent
clogs or performance degradation. Thermaltake WATER2.0 Series of
water cooling solutions are self-contained and proven to last.

Super quiet
WATER2.0 water cooling solutions offer the best of both worlds:
performance and silent operation thanks to the highly efficient
radiator and pump design.

   

Universal Support

Upgrading or switching between CPU platforms? No problem, WATER2.0
water cooling solutions are designed with universal mounting to support
all available AMD and Intel desktop processors.

Smarter cooling
Users should not have to adapt to the tool they are using. Instead,
WATER2.0 water cooling solutions all come with PWM-enabled fans
so the cooling performance adapts to you. WATER2.0 Extreme also
comes with software-based control system that allows the user to
fine-tune performance perameters.

 

 

A Flexible All-in-One Liquid Cooler that provides Easy and Safe Installation. No Refill Needed.
· High performance Copper base plate accelerates the heat conductivity.
· High reliability low profile pump provides quick liquid circulation lowering the temperature.
· Pre-filled coolant reduces the liquid replenishment hassle.

Maintenance
Trouble free for life The WATER2.0 line is designed to operate through its complete lifespan with no internal maintenance or top off of fluids required.
Smart Control
Silence is Golden with the dual PWM fans any 4 pin motherboard header can keep the fans in silent operation until the cooling power is needed such as heavy workloads or extreme gaming sessions.
Fans
2x 120mm PWM Fans included and controllable via available motherboard 4 pin fan headers for temperature controlled fan throttling.
Fan Speed
1200 ~ 2000 RPM fan speed range. This allows for adjustment from the silent and tranquil low 1200 RPM speed up to the powerful and high performance 2000 RPM setting.
Performance
Good Great for anyone looking to get a first step into liquid cooling at the lowest possible cost of entry.

 

If this is starting to look and sound a bit familiar, it’s probably because the pump/radiator/hoses part of this operation is made by Asetek. Asetek sells them to Thermaltake, Antec, Corsair, etc. Thermaltake/antec/etc. then bundle some fans with the unit and send it on it’s way. The fans are a rather crucial part of any cooler, so there is still a fair amount of variation between brands, despite the core parts being made by the same company. We’ll see how the Thermaltake edition works later on in the testing section, right now it’s time for some pictures!
