Hyte THICC Q80 Trio Is a 360 AIO with a Huge 52 mm Thick Radiator Featuring Dual Harmonic Pumps

The Hyte THICC Q80 Trio is being shown off at Computex and marketed as “The Highest Performing Cooler Ever Made”. While many 360 mm and even 240 mm AIOs will suffice for a wide range of CPU cooling applications, sometimes you need the biggest hammer you can find to get the job done and the Hyte THICC Q80 Trio looks like it might just fit the bill. Thicker radiator AIOs are becoming more widely available and although some don’t always manage to check all the cooling performance boxes compared to their thinner counterparts, Hyte’s new offering could be exactly what an overclocker or someone with an exceptionally powerful CPU may be looking for.

The Hyte THICC Q80 Trio features a 52mm thick radiator (heat exchanger) paired with dual pumps and a copper plate with 50% more skived fin coverage than the previous generation. Three fans inside a single enclosure provide up to 105.8 CFMs with an H20 static pressure of 8.14 mm. A 5-inch IPS 60Hz display is mounted to the block via a 180° adjustable swivel. Hyte has said that the THICC Q80 Trio will be available in Panda (B+W) and Pitch Black designs.
