Vigor Gaming Announces Next-Gen Thermoelectric CPU Cooling System

Published by

Vigor Gaming Computer, a developer of custom gaming rigs and high end peripherals, announced its Vigor Monsoon? II Lite, a thermoelectric cooling system for both Intel Core 2 Duo, and AMD K8 and AMD AM2 CPUs.
The Monsoon II Lite provides sub-ambient cooling. This means that unlike air and water CPU coolers, which can only cool a system as low as the present room temperature (for example 72 degrees), Monsoon II Lite-equipped systems can be cooled even lower.
Used commonly in the aerospace industry, the thermoelectric chip (TEC) or thermoelectric cooler concept used by Vigor Gaming have not been incorporated for cooling CPUs due to previous condensation and power consumption associated problems. Vigor Gaming resolved these problems by developing a patented advanced software controlled system, which regulates the entire system to eliminate any possibility of condensation and efficiently reduces power consumption.
