Система Ventiva ICE9 / Ventiva
Ventiva’s system uses ion movement for cooling and is completely silent.
Ventiva has just announced its ICE9 computer temperature management system, which operates absolutely silently and without any moving parts. It will soon be showcased at the CES exhibition—initially for processors up to 25W. By 2027, Ventiva expects to be able to cool laptops with a TDP up to 40W.
The ICE9 system utilizes a proprietary ionic cooling engine (ICE) that operates without moving parts. It is claimed that this device is much more efficient than the solid-state Frore AirJet cooler, released two years ago, although less efficient than a real fan.
A clear advantage of Ventiva ICE9 is its absolutely silent operation and ultra-compact form factor with a device height of only 12 mm. The system could be a good solution for thin and light notebooks, allowing OEM manufacturers to use relatively powerful processors in more comfortable conditions. Space savings inside will allow manufacturers to insert additional device components.
A TDP up to 25W means the system can be used with some of the new low-power high-efficiency processors from AMD and Intel, as well as Qualcomm Snapdragon X chips. Work is currently ongoing with OEM manufacturers to develop cooling solutions for 40W TDP, which will expand the system’s application range. Additionally, the manufacturer is open to creating hybrid solutions that would combine ICE9 and active cooling.
A drawback of Ventiva ICE9 is the need to specially create a housing for the system’s application. It cannot simply be installed in place of traditional cooling systems.
