We've come a long way with liquid coolers. The first generation was known for being loud and at risk of causing a puddle in your PC. While the latter is a slightly unfair reading of the upcoming tech at the time—a leak was uncommon and my ancient Corsair H100i is still going strong—the first part isn't. Older liquid coolers make a lot of noise, and a big part of that was the peculiar and noticeable whine of the pump running at full speed. Newer AIO coolers are much quieter, but there's a brand new technology on the horizon that hopes to do away with pump noise for good.
It's called 'Ingrid' and it's the new platform by the makers of the original liquid cooler, Asetek.
