FSP Launches the Hydro PTM+ 1400W, a Liquid-cooled power Supply

FSP Launches the Hydro PTM+ 1400W, a Liquid-cooled power Supply

Yesterday we posted news about you talking to a power supply, today it's a liquid cooled one. If there is one part you do not want coolant involved, I bet its the PSU. Don't worry though, at 700 USD you're probably not going to buy it anyway. 

FSP launches their Hydro PTM+, a unique liquid cooled power supply that excels at its efficiency, power rating, and thermal performance. With liquid cooling enabled, up to 1400W of power can be delivered, but when power demand is below 50% loading the Hydro PTM+ remains passively cooled, remaining completely silent. On top of the fantastic power delivery and unique cooling solution, the Hydro PTM+ fits any gamers' needs, by also offering good looks. With ASUS Aura sync certified RGB lighting inside the unit and fully modular design with ribbon cables, the Hydro PTM+ is the first PSU that truly combines power, cooling, and aesthetics.

 

 

As a unique opportunity for liquid cooling and modding enthusiasts, FSP and Bitspower have prepared 500 limited edition units with amazing extras. The first 500 units will get high-quality FSP sleeved cables as well as a Bitspower AiO kit, including pump, radiator, and 120 mm LED Fan. The regular Hydro PTM+ and limited edition does not include coolant for those that want to integrate this solution into their custom systems.Check the limited edition Hydro PTM+ here.

High quality Japanese components, up to 1400W power
Internally, the Hydro PTM+ is made of only the best components. Feature 100% Japanese made E-caps, which provide reliable power and have a prolonged lifespan over other alternatives. The design, is based on a single 12V rail with a DC-DC module for supreme efficiency and voltage stability. This allows for the extremely high 92% efficiency rating, 80 PLUS Platinum certification, and various protection schemes such as over-current, over-voltage and over-temperature protection. When power-demand, and temperature rises, a single 135 mm FDB fan can cool the entire unit and starts spinning up at 30% load. Enabling liquid cooling allows the Hydro PTM+ to deliver an additional 200W, up to 1400W and the fan to remain inactive up to 50% system load.

Product Highlights

  • Up to 1400W (with liquid cooling)
  • Hybrid liquid, passive, and fan cooling
  • RGB lighting with ASUS Aura sync
  • World's first 80 PLUS Platinum Certified liquid cooled PSU
  • DC - DC module design for 92% Efficiency
  • 100% Japanese made electronic capacitors
  • Fully modular design, with ribbon cables
  • First 500 units come with FSP sleeving cable and Bitspower AIO parts
  • MSRP: USD $699.99

I only buy PSUs from FSP, but this is very unpleasant idea to think about.
If there is leakage on MB/GPU/... Those are low voltage devices. They will misbehave, maybe some capacitors blews as result.
But this can mean serious fire hazard, and maybe even chemical danger due to electrolysis.

Yes, very unlikely. But if it can happen, it will happen to someone sooner or later.

to have used a silverstone nightjar with watercooling kit a long period, i can tell you that there is nothing more to fear over a classic WC solution.

if well mounted then there is no leak

This seems to be a pretty efficient PSU I doubt it actually requires water cooling. If it did need water FSP would have made it titanium efficiency to compensate for the heat vs water cooling. I assume this is just a novelty item for system builders to play with.

I never understood watercooled psus. It's not like you can hear them anyway. The fan is so big and spins so slow that it's basically silent if you have it 5 feet away or so.
