Danger Den Almost Ready with Hemlock Water-Block
PC water-cooling components specialist Danger Den is almost ready with its water-block compatible with AMD’s upcoming dual-GPU accelerator codenamed “Hemlock”. Almost, since the base-plate of the water-block has already been designed and molded, which makes for most of the product in itself, requiring only the top, its sealing, and fittings. The monolithic, full-coverage block base is made of copper. Its top portion reveals its intricately carved water channels. The copper grooves over the areas of the block which make contact with some of the most important components such as the GPU, memory, and bridge chip, increase area of heat dissipation. The block is CrossFire certified, and weighs about 3.00 lbs / 1.37 kg. Danger Den is waiting for an engineering sample from AMD, so it can complete running tests, and name its block after getting clarity on what AMD ends up naming Hemlock. AMD’s new flagship graphics accelerator is expected to arrive in time for the crucial X-Mas shopping season.
