There computer cooling, especially in summer, it is always a complicated aspect because it forces us to find a good combination of heatsink, fans and case that allows the components to operate at an adequate temperature. Of course, the more fans there are and the faster they have to run, the more noise is generated but would it be possible to keep the PC without using fans? We have already seen in the past some alternatives of passive box no fan that did, but could only work with low power hardware…until now.
And it is that the manufacturer Streacom, famous for its passive boxes that manage to maintain the temperature of the PC at a distance without using fans, has just presented its new SG10 box, completely passive and which they pride themselves on being able to dissipate. up to 600W of passive heat, which would allow us to use high-end hardware instead of having to settle for a low-power PC.
This fanless PC case dissipates 600W of heat
For now, the manufacturer has contented itself with announcing that during Computex 2023, which will take place at the end of this month, it will present its new, entirely passive SG10 box, which, as we have already mentioned, is able to dissipate up to 600W of heat without the need to use fans.
Please note, the image we posted above is not that of the new Streacom SG10 box, but rather that of the Calyos NSG S0, a passive box launched in 2017 and on which, in theory, the new SG10 has been based. And we didn’t post a picture of this case for nothing, because the SG10 is the result of an agreement between Streacom and Calyos to join forces and release what could surely be the ultimate passive PC case.
From what it seems, the new box will have a huge passive heat sink that will take up the entire upper part of the box, and which, according to the manufacturer, would be able to dissipate up to 195W of heat from the processor and up to 420W of heat generated by the graphics card. , adding just over 600W of heat dissipation capacity. This means that we could have a PC equipped with, for example, an Intel Core i9-12900K and an RTX 4090 without the need for fans, although in this case we would be pushing the capacity of the box to the limit and it would be advisable to choose components a little less demanding. .
To achieve this amazing feat, the case uses a dielectric fluid inside that works much like vapor chamber coolers, with the heat pipes factory sealed so we never have to worry about maintenance, and unlike all-in-one liquid coolers, there would be no liquid evaporation since the internal circuit would be completely sealed.
What does it mean? That the box would already come with the CPU and GPU blocks prepared to install our hardware, and that would imply that we would have to completely disassemble the graphics card heatsink.
By the way, we have already told you that they will present it at this year’s Computex which will take place at the end of the month, but they have not said anything about the availability date or the price; However, considering that this is a passive, fanless PC case and that it already comes with a “heatsink” for the CPU and for the graphics card, it is highly likely that it has a very, very high price (and we are talking about a price range that will easily exceed 400 $). We’ll see what happens when it’s finally presented.
