The computer passionates know only very well the advantages a water-cooling system can provide for their PC, starting from the very peculiar look of the central unit and ending with the possibility of artificially increasing the processor's frequency (overclocking).


The biggest problem is that most water-cooling systems are not quite easy to be installed, and require a certain amount of technical knowledge. But this is where the Water Cowboy DC-WCP450, a product developed by Digital Cowboy Japan, steps in.

Water Cowboy is the first 450 Watt ATX power supply which includes a radiator, a water pump and a tank. The unit has a 12 cm angular fan, which has both the purpose of preventing the power supply from overheating and cools the water going to the processor. Moreover, the system comes complete with power cord, water circulating tube, water block, grease, nozzle, tube clip, but also with another very interesting product, namely a 500 ml bottle of a special coolant, which can be used if you're planning on doing some very serious overclocking.

Water Cowboy DC-WCP450 is compatible with the Socket LGA775 and Socket 754/939 CPUs, and will be available in Japan starting with June, at a price of around 230 dollars. Let's hope that they'll start exporting it soon, since this product is sure to be quite popular with the tech passionates, especially due to its ease of installation, but also due to the other advantages it provides.
