Thermaltake has released to the market the latest PC cooling technology, XPRESSAR. The new XPRESSAR RCS100 uses the first DC inverter type micro refrigeration cooling system enabling the platform to become the ultimate over-clock gaming solution. The company worked on the new technology starting from the design principle of refrigerators' cooling system.

Basically, Thermaltake managed to minimize the compressor used in air conditioners and refrigerators we see and use in our everyday lives, and packed it inside the computer case where it cools down the heating surfaces of the systems. The temperature inside the case is kept constant and stable through the built-in intelligent IC controller preventing at the same time any form of condensation that might appear.

The XPRESSAR RCS100 (VG40031N2Z) is able to keep the temperature 20 degrees lower than liquid cooling systems do. A circulating liquid refrigerant is used as a medium inside the vapor-compression refrigeration system and it absorbs and removes the heat cooling down space while dissipating the heat elsewhere.

The company presents on its site all the information enthusiasts might wish to get, including the basic theory, design principle, technology details, technical specs and photos of XPRESSAR. The online demonstration will show overclockers all they want to know. The chassis is a Micro ATX, ATX Super Tower, featuring a 140mm front intake fan (1000rpm @16dBA) and a 140mm top exhaust fan (1000rpm @16dBA), as well as 2x 140mm bottom intake fan and 140mm VGA intake fan (1000rpm @16dBA).

The case measures 605 x 250 x 660 mm and features a net/gross weight of 22.2 kg / 29.9 kg. It includes 7x 5.25″ and 5x 3.5″ drive bays as well as 10 Expansion Slots. The refrigeration cooling system features a 134 x 120 x 47 mm condenser, a 120mm fan (1600rpm), has a thermal resistance under 0.02 ºC/W in load, and uses a maximum of 50W power. This advanced technology breakthrough Thermaltake released to the market is meant to be a step forward for the industry and also consolidates the company's leading position in the area.
