The Thermaltake Water 2.0 Extreme is the flagship model in its new all-in-one cooling line-up. We've already checked out the bargain version, the single-fan 120mm radiator Water 2.0 Performer , which was a decent little liquid chip-chiller. This model is...

So it seems I'm doing a few cooling related reviews lately so I figured I'd toss another in the mix. Today for review I've got the latest product from Thermaltake called the WATER2.0 Performer All-In-One LCS. The LCS there means Liquid Cooling System,...

I must admit I was impressed with the performance of Thermaltake's Water 2.0 Extreme, as I am usually not a big fan of all-in-one LCS systems. I prefer to purchase my pumps, reservoir and radiator separately. I do believe the Water 2.0 Extreme's...
