Does anyone know where this is actually available?

I've looked at AMD's pages, and they don't mention anything about coolers. I looked at Antec and couldn't find anything there, either.

This looks like it would be useful...

Do you want the CPU and the cooler or just the water cooling kit?

If you're after the cooler, the bundle (and cooler itself) was a trial run overseas. dont think the cooler ever went on sale in the US with the AMD logo.

the cooler is basically an Antec 920, newer verion would be the thermaltake water2 pro.

Actually, I just wanted the software, since I have an Antec 620. I'm guessing they have a thermistor buried somewhere in the cooling system, and I'd like to be able to 'look' at what it's saying.

I looked all over the AMD USA site and couldn't find anything about it.

I think he wants the Antec ChillControl software with the AMD skin. I poked around for a half and hour and didn't find anything. If there is a link to the download then it's buried somewhere.

That's what happened to me, too, Major A... I looked all over, and had zero luck trying to find the software.

Oh, well, it was just a thought.


Thanks for taking the time to look, though! I appreciate the effort!

Shoot Antec and/or AMD an email asking them for the AMD ChillControl software. What's the worst thing they can say, no?

LOL...
I suppose so.
Let's say my luck requesting support from vendors hasn't been stellar the last couple of weeks. (Nothing out of the ordinary... but I do get SO tired of everyone pointing fingers at everyone else.)

I have the software here somewhere. olny works with the 920 style cooler. the 620 lacks the USB interface.
