Thermalright AI HydroNous R1 revealed
Thermalright has announced the AI HydroNous R1, a 2.6-liter mini PC built around AMD’s Ryzen AI Max+ 395. According to Thermalright, the system uses a custom liquid-cooling design that allows the processor to reach a claimed 176W peak power level.
Thermalright lists a phase-change TIM, a full-coverage copper water block, a custom 180mm internal radiator, and two LCP fans. The slides also mention three performance modes, while the chassis uses CNC aluminum construction, a 4.6-inch LCD, and more than 4,000 ventilation holes.

The manual adds a few details that were not called out in the short announcement. It includes SSD installation steps and shows that the system can be used in both vertical and horizontal positions. That suggests the R1 is designed as a small workstation-style system rather than a fixed-layout mini PC.
Thermalright has not listed pricing in the materials we checked. So, we have no pricing or release date for this system at the time of writing.
