Liquid cooled Xbox 360 to be shown at CES 2006
Is the Xbox 360 running a bit too hot for your liking? Well if you’re in Vegas for the CES event in a few weekends, then you’ll want to drop by the CoolIT Systems booth to check out their demonstration of a liquid cooled Xbox 360. They’ll be showing side by side Xbox 360’s - one CoolIT MTEC liquid chilled Xbox 360 and one standard one - and showing the temps, noise, and performance of the systems. I assume CoolIT will be creating a product that allows people to mod their Xbox 360’s to replace the stock heatsink / fans with the new MTEC solution. I personally don’t have a problem with the system heat but the noise level could be reduced a bit.
CoolIT Systems Inc. today announced that it is showcasing the world’s first truly liquid-cooled Xbox 360 in Las Vegas at the Consumer Electronics Show from Jan. 4 - 8, 2006.
For Immediate Release
CALGARY, Alberta/EWORLDWIRE/Dec. 29, 2005 — CoolIT Systems Inc. today announced that it is showcasing the world’s first truly liquid-cooled Xbox 360 in Las Vegas at the Consumer Electronics Show from Jan. 4 - 8, 2006.
The retrofitted Xbox 360 will be on display at the CoolIT Systems booth 70556 in The Sands Expo Center throughout the duration of the CES Show. The display will feature a side-by-side comparison of the CoolIT MTEC liquid-chilled Xbox 360 to the standard Xbox 360 to demonstrate superiority for temperature, noise level and ultimate performance.
“Whether it’s a PC or gaming console, the avid gamer is constantly raising the bar for performance,” said Geoff Lyon, CEO of CoolIT. “It’s now obvious that only the most technologically advanced cooling system will be capable of keeping up with the heat production of today’s CPUs and GPUs. The exclusive MTEC technology allows us to provide enormous cooling power in a very compact form factor suitable for maintaining stable temperatures and ensuring optimum performance.”
The Microsoft Xbox 360 has been the topic of much discussion since its release on Nov. 22, 2005. Aside from its limited supply through Christmas and fantastic gaming abilities, many headlines have been about problems related to the excessive thermal output of Microsoft’s latest gaming console product.
To provide gaming consumers with a high performance option, CoolIT Systems has designed a retrofit product that will transform the stock forced air cooling system with a state-of-the-art liquid-chilled system that employs the exclusive MTEC technology pioneered by CoolIT Systems.
The CoolIT Booth will also showcase several newly- released retail products including the Freezone CPU Cooler compatible with both AMD and Intel processors and the USB Beverage Chiller.
