Thermaltake WaterRam 32GB (4x 8GB) DDR4 3600MHz RGB Liquid Cooled Memory $249 (Was $599) @ Mwave

1000

Are you a water-cooling, RGB aficionado?

Do you have a custom loop in your PC?
Is your laptop jerry-rigged to a home made water cooler?

Do nearby boats use the lights from your rig as a beacon to help them navigate?

Are you the kind of person who's tried to water cool their cell phone and camera?

Do you have RGB strips on your gaming headset?
Are those RGB strips water-cooled?

Then this is the product for you! Thermaltakes water-cooled, RGB RAM!

How much faster is this than regular RAM? We all know that water-cooling something makes it go two times as fast, and RGB makes it go three times as fast. Put them together and it'll go twice more fast; take the two, add the three - you got five, then double it and by my math this RAM is at least TEN TIMES as fast as regular RAM

Model # CL-W262-CA00SW-A
Capacity: 32GB (4x 8GB) - Speed: 3600MHz - Latency: 18-19-19-39 - Voltage: 1.35V

It's using Hynix C-die, and honestly, gimmicks aside, it's not even that bad a local price for a speedy 4x8gb kit of it lmao.

    not sure how overkill this is but ok

    • +8

      Absolutely useless that is the level of overkillness lol

  • +1

    Will this fit on all motherboards with 4 slots

    • +1

      Depends on clearance around CPU heatsink. I’d get the dimensions and measure. Also consider your case and if there is clearance there. This is not self contained so you’ll require tubes run also.
      Also (not recently) I’ve seen some mobos with two sticks either side of the CPU.

      • But its open loop, so you would have to assume if you have this, you have a water block on your CPU.

        • Not necessarily. If it’s open loop someone could have done GPU first/only…. you’d wonder why but it’s possible.

          • +2

            @Elpres: find the guy with the air cooled CPU and is considering water cooling his ram and slap him in the face for me

          • @Elpres: Because the latest GPU’s are over 300W and the latest CPUs are generally under 100W. People water cool their CPU first because it is easy, not because it offers the best overall cooling solution

            • -1

              @mctubster: I do the cpu because of cost. GPU water blocks are expensive. That being said I haven’t watercooled anything for years.

            • @mctubster: It is much harder to cool cpu than gpu, since everything is so compact, had to slap on a monoblock to be able to overclock a 3950x/5800x and run at safe temp without throttling

              An overclock air cool gpu peaks around 80C which is already a safe point

              • @ln28909: Yes I agree depends on case. The best CPU coolers are air, but very large. GPU water cooling is great if you are trying to reduce noise / move the heat in the case, but not cheap.

    • -1

      Yes. The block is seperate to the ram, you're functionally buying 4*8gb sticks that comes with an attachable water block/heatsink. Worst case the block won't fit, so you'll just have regular ram sticks.

  • +13

    Have been custom watercooling for over 10 years. Never once needed to watercool cool RAM. Don't waste your money on TT watercooling products, they are second rate.

    • +6

      That can also be said that CPU and GPU also do not require watercooling

    • +18

      Need and want are two very different things

      • +1

        There is no cost you can put on the pertiness of this

    • unless you run a rendering rig with multi-gpu, you don't need to watercool. Me, I watercool for just aesthetics

      • +3

        I think his comment is more around ram doesn't need active cooling, and under pretty much any scenario the ram will never need active cooling. Water cooling ram just adds more clutter for no gain.

        • not really, if you want to do extreme memory tuning and see how far you can push your kit, you can pump more voltage into it which makes the ram quite hot, so lower temp just gives you more voltage headroom

          Pretty much same concept as watercooling gpu, but most of the time with gpu watercooling you hit power limit before temp limit anyway

          For example, I got only 30Mhz extra on my 2080 ti FTW3 Ultra with watercooling cause it already hits power limit on air

    • Agree. Arrange the fans well would cool RAM down. Apply some ARGB strips for aesthetics.

      • no, RGB and especially ARGB make ram go faster! lmao

  • -1

    FYI this ram don't actually need to use the RGB or water cooling. The ram is mounted normally, it's the water block that sits on top that does RGB. You can also use that block as a heatsink without plumbing to a water loop too.

    • -2

      You could also fill the block with water and leave plugs in and get a bit of a benefit, initially. Once the water heats up it will maintain the heat (marginally) longer when expecting the unit to cool.

      • -1

        I don't know if that would work better than just copper sink to air… the water block would pull the heat faster but has no where to go after that. Could be more efficient to just let it dissipate off the block.

        • -1

          Yeah, I didn’t say it was a good idea. Holding on to heat longer than necessary is not usually a good idea for electronics.

  • Life saver

    Also is Hynix C die better than Micron E die

  • +2

    Insert 'Laughs in Noctua NH-D15' Meme ;)

  • its….'watercool effect' - not cooling the ram. lol

    • the heat spreaders make direct contact with the ram block for heat dissipation

  • +11

    +1 for the description haha. I love it.

    When’s the Dell water cooled monitor coming out?

  • +1

    Was 599, who on earth bought one for at RRP.

  • Has this gone back to full price?

  • +1

    +1,000,000 for the description!

  • Great description!

  • I was tempted and erred, I have the regret, should have pulled the trigger!

    • $249 saved for the next Ozbargain!

    • this is on par with the last crucial deal from Amazon on Prime day

      This you don't have to remove the existing heat spreader but I think the crucial ram is better

      • Which deal?
        I'm after 4x8gb 3600mhz to go with my proposed pipedream 5900x/3080 build
        Best possible timings, and ideally syncing with my hopeful Corsair 680x case.

        I've spent so much time theorycrafting this PC, and it has never been a worse time to buy!

    I just come here to say I went to ozb and the homepage was full of expired or out of stock deals including this one. Wtf ozb wheres the mods

    • +3

      They get posted. Ozbargainers buy them. They become out of stock.

  • Do RAM sticks even get hot?

    • Not at 1.35V.

    I am quite curious why people like RGB so much …

    • +1

      Because it looks cool. Or at least it did. Tbh it loses its allure after a while. Also if I sit in front of my rig too long I get a sunburn. But who wants a fan thats a single colour?

      • I would definitely prefer if the materials were coloured to match my themed build, but can't really find much variety in terms of colour outside of white, black or red so RGB is just an easy way to colour theme for me.

      • +1

        Yeah I really liked my RGB build. Used to be able to stared at it for hours. It doesn't look so good anymore tbh, it's not as bright. In fact everything looks dim now, I can barely see my hand Infront of my face. The doctors say the lights left me legally blind or some rubbish. Anyways, it's definitely worth it if you want some flair in your build.

  • RAM Cooler? i thought those things disappeared cause they didn't sell well…

  • Best description ever hahahaha

  • is is addressable RGB?

  • I…uhm

    WHY

  • "Do you have RGB strips on your gaming headset?
    Are those RGB strips water-cooled?"

    Upvoted for the description.
