Thermal Grizzly, a German specialist in thermal interface materials, liquid cooling and PC enthusiast hardware, and Noctua, an Austrian leader in premium quality quiet cooling components, today introduced the Thermal Grizzly WireView Pro II Noctua Edition. Combining Thermal Grizzly's patented WireView Pro II platform with a customized Noctua cooling solution, the new device helps to safeguard high-end graphics cards against 12V-2x6 connector damage while running significantly quieter than the standard version.

"The WireView Pro II has been extremely successful and has already helped many users detect potentially dangerous connector issues before they could cause damage", says Roman Hartung, CEO of Thermal Grizzly. "One of the most common points of feedback, however, was that the fan could still be noticeable in very quiet systems, so working with Noctua on a significantly quieter cooling solution was the logical next step - and, for us, really completes the product."

Noctua has released a new roadmap update for its upcoming products, providing concrete timelines for many items the company teased during this year's Computex 2026 international show. One of the most interesting designs is the low-profile, 70 mm tall small form-factor cooler for AMD's AM5 socket platform. This cooler is a variation of the NH-L12 series and incorporates Noctua's classic technologies. It features six 6 mm copper heat pipes and dense aluminium fins for effective heat dissipation. The cooler comes with Noctua's own NF-A12x25 G2 120 mm fan, which efficiently blows air across the fins. It also allows for about 35 mm of height for RAM kits, ensuring it does not interfere with memory selection on ITX motherboards. Noctua confirms that the cooler is scheduled for release in Q2 of 2027, consistent with what was announced at Computex 2026.

Looking at more immediate releases, the company is preparing its carbon nanotube thermal pad, NT-CP1, for AM4 and AM5 sockets in Q3 of this year, along with the Pulsar Feinmann F01 Noctua Edition mouse. Q3 will also see the launch of the WireView Pro II for measuring voltage, power, temperature, and current from the entire 12V-2x6 connector, and readings from each individual pin. The WireView Pro II Noctua Edition will have all the features and functions of the original WireView Pro II but will use a different CNC-machined aluminium case with a Noctua-optimized fan grill to improve airflow-to-noise performance. It will also feature Noctua's frameless NF-A4x10 PWM fan with a semi-passive cooling mode.

Thermal Grizzly definitely had a lot to show at the Computex 2026 show in Taipei, and it even brought a few new versions of the WireView, a device that measures power consumption of graphics cards, and while the currently available WireView Pro II is a beast that not only measures voltage, power, temperature, and current from the entire 12V-2x6 connector, but from each individual pin as well, the company thinks there is still room for additional improvement and new versions. At the show, the company teamed up with Noctua, bringing a new version of the WireView Pro II, as well as announcing the new, more compact version called the WireView II.

The WireView Pro II Noctua Edition will have all the features and functions of the original WireView Pro II but use a different CNC-machined aluminium case with a Noctua-optimized fan grill that should improve airflow-to-noise performance, as well as use Noctua's frameless NF-A4x10 PWM fan with semi-passive cooling mode. Thermal Grizzly also showcased the new WireView II, a more compact version with slim CNC/machined aluminium housing and built on the same platform as the WireView Pro II. It will retain all the functionality of the WireView Pro II platform but lack the display.

Thermal Grizzly is pleased to announce the official launch of the first public software suite for the GPU power monitoring tool WireView Pro II, as well as the release of the first official firmware update. Both the software and the firmware update are optional. However, when used together, they enable full functionality of the WireView Pro II, including data logging and device configuration via PC.

The software primarily allows additional functions to be configured on the WireView Pro II:

• Access to logged data
• Fine-tuning of settings
• Setting the display start page

The WireView Pro II, which was already presented at Computex 2025, is now available for pre-order exclusively in the Thermal Grizzly shop and offers new features for monitoring and data logging as well as new protection functions for graphics cards with a 12VHPWR power connector. The WireView Pro II is a device for measuring the power consumption of graphics cards and introduces precise per-pin monitoring of the 12V-2x6 connector for the first time, providing valuable insights into load distribution on modern high-end graphics cards along with advanced safety features.

A CNC-machined aluminium housing with semi-passive cooling and a high-contrast TFT-IPS display ensures reliable visualization of all critical measurements. Automatic data logging and an extended 2-year warranty for the GPU connector and graphics card provide additional peace of mind in demanding setups.
