Thermal Grizzly has raised the bar for CPU cooling with the introduction of its Intel Mycro Direct-Die RGB PRO V1 water cooler. This enhanced version of the Mycro Direct-Die series promises significant improvements in cooling performance, boasting up to 6 degrees Celsius lower processor temperatures under full load compared to its predecessor. By optimizing the micro fin structure and water flow, Thermal Grizzly aims to provide enthusiasts and overclockers with the ultimate solution for taming even the most demanding CPUs.
Like all high-performance products from Thermal Grizzly, the Intel Mycro Direct-Die Pro RGB V1 is designed to be used with liquid metal between the CPU die and CPU cooler. Liquid metal offers the best possible heat transfer from the silicon of the die to the copper of the cooler. For this purpose, the copper cooler is nickel-plated so that the gallium-based liquid metal does not diffuse into the copper. The barrier layer in the form of nickel ensures that multiple applications of liquid metal are generally not necessary.
The design of the Intel Mycro Direct-Die Pro RGB V1 includes an anodized aluminium cover with RGB LED lighting underneath. These illuminate the tempered acrylic glass and can be controlled via the 3-pin ARGB header (+5V/DATA/GND) on the mainboard. The Intel Mycro Direct-Die Pro RGB V1 is connected to the custom water cooling circuit via an input and output with G1/4-inch threads.
After milling, the acrylic glass is subjected to an annealing process that relieves it of internal stresses. This ensures that no stress cracks form in the acrylic glass, even after extended use, as can occur with hardened acrylic glass.
The bottom line is that the Intel Mycro Direct-Die RGB PRO V1 can improve temperatures by up to 6 degrees Celsius, depending on the usual factors such as ambient temperature, water cooling system configuration, and the chip itself. Now available in the Thermal Grizzly online store and from our sales partners, the Intel Mycro Direct-Die RGB PRO V1 is completely manufactured, assembled, and packaged at our production site in Hohen Neuendorf, Brandenburg, and is therefore 100 per cent “Made in Germany.”
