Der8auer Reveals New Ryzen 7000 Direct Die Water Block

Overclocking expert Roman "der8auer" Hartung has unveiled the new Ryzen 7000 direct die water block, the AM5 Mycro Direct Die cooler. The new direct die water block promises significantly lower temperatures compared to all-in-one (AiO) liquid coolers.

Of course, users will have to remove the Ryzen 7000 series IHS in order for the block to be in direct contact with the processor, or more precisely, chiplets on the AMD Ryzen 7000 series CPUs. It works with Der8auer's high-performance heatspreader. As tested on the AMD Ryzen 9 7900X CPU, the new Mycro Direct Die cooler can lower the temperature down to 65°C, which is significantly lower than standard 280 mm AiO coolers. The Mycro Direct Die cooler shows its true cooling potential on overclocked CPUs, offering up to 28°C lower temperatures.
Der8auer's Mycro Direct Die cooler should be available soon, and come in RGB and non-RGB versions, priced at around €140 and €100, respectively.
