It is composed of coolant reservoirs, a radiator, pumps and tubes for multiple video cards

Normally, IT companies release cooling products on their own, but sometimes, a full water cooling system will be created, and that's exactly what Gigabyte is revealing right now.

Or, rather, that's what Gigabyte launched a short time ago: the WindForce VGA Liquid Cooling system.

It's not just a water block, though it does include such things (it's meant to be used on multi-card setups you see).

So, in addition to the full-coverage water blocks (contact with the GPU, memory and VRM), there is a main unit (which controls everything and has a display showing the temperature for each coolant channel), as well as coolant reservoirs.

There's a huge radiator too, which uses multiple fans. That, as well as ports for coolant tubes, are part of the external module as well.

The connection between the external module and the things inside the PC is done through a hub that occupies a 5.25-inch bay.

Gigabyte's WaterForce liquid cooling system should already be up for sale. It can handle thermal loads of up to 600W, but hasn't been given a price just yet.

Depending on what graphics cards you have, you'll need to select different water blocks. Especially if you use dual-GPU adapters like NVIDIA's GeForce GTX Titan Z or AMD's Radeon R9 295 X2.
