Thermaltake Symphony

Introduction

Symphony from Thermaltake – also calledCL-W0040 – is an external liquid cooling system originally targeted to home theater PCs, but there is nothing wrong on using it together with a regular PC. Since we hadn’t this product with us for enough time for performing an in-depth review, we’ve just created this new section called “First Look”, where we will be talking about products without making any in-depth benchmarking or testing, due to lack of time or due to lack of a correct methodology for benchmarking the product.

This product draw our attention by its size: 3.60 feet high (1.10 meters). Its design, however, makes it looks like a home theater speaker and not a cooling device. That’s why Thermaltake is targeting this product to home theater market segment.
