The HEATKILLER V is the perfect choice for those who want to equip their graphics card with powerful and stylish graphics card cooler. This water cooler is specially designed for NVIDIA RTX 4080 Founders Edition and provides optimal cooling performance for the GPU, voltage converter and VRAM. In order to keep the temperatures in the area of the GPU core low, we have heavily optimized the cooling structure around the graphics chip. The 48 x 0.3 mm fins used ensure high cooling performance with a consistently high flow rate. A flow-optimized acrylic jet plate ensures an ideal coolant distribution.

Familiar technologies from the HEATKILLER V, such as the dual-layer inflow and the symmetrical cooling design, have also been incorporated into the PRO variant. The split inflow and the symmetrical, wide flow channels ensure a constant high flow rate. According to Watercool, the development department has invested a lot of time into finding the ideal thermal pads for the hot GDDR6X RAM. Accordingly, special high-performance thermal pads are included in the scope of delivery.

With the HEATKILLER V Pro for ASUS RTX 4090 STRIX and TUF, WATERCOOL proudly presents its latest cooler generation suitable for the GeForce RTX 4090 High-End models from ASUS. For this purpose, the cooler has been redesigned from scratch and features a modular high-performance base plate as a special "highlight," which massively increases the cooling performance once again.

In addition, the cooler uses approved technologies like the dual layer inflow and symmetrically designed cooling channels. To keep the hot GDDR6X memory in control, special high-performance thermal pads are included in the scope of delivery. The HEATKILLER V Pro for ASUS RTX 4090 STRIX and TUF will be available in the coming days from select retailers as well as directly from Watercool's online store, but with some waiting time.

Watercool today released the HEATKILLER V watercooling block, now made compatible with the latest and greatest from AMD - the RX 6800, RX 6800 XT, and RX 6900 XT graphics cards. Due to the increased performance profile (and heat output) on AMD's latest-gen RDNA 2 graphics cards, the company has redesigned the base plate's channel routing, and improved the cooling structure along the Z axis - higher heat dissipation area means that watercooling now has more ways to transfer heat from the card to your radiator of choice, The company has also redesigned the backplate, adding a curved design that helps in hiding all the electronic bits and pieces that are usually visible in AMD's cards, further streamlining users' builds.

The baseplate is built out of nickel-plated electrolytic copper, while the cover is made of the generally abundant plexiglas. The cover itself is built out of annealed stainless steel, improving rigidity and resistance of the overall block, while the connection terminal is built out of the also usual Acetal. The block makes use of the standard 4x G ¼ inch sockets. Dimensions of the block stand at 270 mm length, 128 mm width (including the connection terminal) and 28.5 mm height (including the backplate). The HEATKILLER V is available in black and light metal gray for €164,95.

"The focus of our development has always been to improve the deliverable performance." (Rico Weber, WATERCOOL CEO, Sep.2020). This quote marked the beginning of the development of the new HEATKILLER V VGA cooler. In addition to an increase of performance, the focus also lay on improvements in handling and durability. The HEATKILLER VGA coolers, known for their outstanding workmanship, have also been visually enhanced. In the latest revision for AMD graphics cards of the RX 6800/6900XT series, the HEATKILLER V has been further optimized.

The inflow to the cooling structure has been completely reworked. It now is placed with a vertical offset above a second level. The inlet and outlet channels cross each other, but are spatially separated from each other. The new design allows a symmetrical arrangement of the cooling channels. The advantage of the symmetrical design is a steady flow through the heat sink. Dead zones and hotspots are thus effectively avoided. At the same time the windage is reduced. The HEATKILLER V for RX 6800/6900XT features a vertical cooling structure, which significantly improves the cooling performance even more. The enlarged cooling surface ensures exceptionally low GPU temperatures. To reduce turbulences, all cooling channels were manufactured in a rounded design.

With the HEATKILLER V-VGA, WATERCOOL presents its latest cooler generation, suitable for the current NVIDIA RTX 3080/3090 graphics card series. As the new version number "V" already indicates, apart from the new design, a lot has also been done under the cover. The HEATKILLER V has been improved in many details. In addition to a completely new dual-layer design, the cooling structure has also been enhanced.

The cooler was designed in different versions for well-known brands such as EVGA, ZOTAC, GAINWARD and many more. The standard Heatkiller V-VGA version is designed for short manufacturers circuit boards, while the XL version was specially adapted for cards such as the Zotac Trinity or Inno3d ICHill to achieve optimum cooling performance. The HK V will be available in the next few days from selected retailers as well as directly from Watercool's online store, but with some delay.
