Boutique outfit Digital Storm is once again dipping its system building fingers into sub-zero territory with the launch of its Cryo-TEC Cooling System. This chilly cooler is essentially a redesigned version of Digital Storm's Sub-Zero Liquid Chilled system and is now smaller and more powerful than before by way of direct contact heat dissipation technology. Digital Storm describes (http://maxborgesagency.com/press/digital-storm-empowers-supreme-processor-performance-with-cryo-tec-cooling-system-in-gaming-computers/) the new model as a "radical leap forward in cooling technology," a claim made possible by placing the processor in direct contact with the thermo-electric cold plate. The Cryo-TEC Cooling System also includes a custom control board that automatically optimizes cooling power and efficiency, Digital Storm says.
The Cry-TEC is also $500 less expensive than the previous Sub-Zero cooling apparatus. It's offered in four different gaming computers, or "Levels," as Digital Storm dubs them. The Level 1 setup starts at $3,968 and includes:


Intel Core i7 2600K processor
Asus Sabertooth P67 motherboard
8GB DDR3-1600 Corsair Dominator DHX memory
Nvidia GTX 580 videocard
Western Digital 1TB Black Edition hard drive (7200RPM, 64MB cache)
24X DVD burner
Corsair Pro Silver 1050HX power supply (1050W)

The above system setup also includes a "Stage 3" overclock with Digital Storm goosing the processor to somewhere between 4.9GHz and 5.2GHz.
Starting at $6,931, the Level 4 machine is built around an Intel Core i7 990X processor, 12GB of memory, and three GTX 580 videocards for tri-SLI bragging rights. All four machines can be custom configured.

That's a nice looking rig, I wonder if there are any problems with condensation build up, more so I am thinking once it's been turned off and the heat has stopped being generated, very nice though, would be nice to be running at those temps :smile:

Sweet system!

My concern would also be condensation build up also in very humid climates of the world. Where is all that moisture going to end up and 7 grand is a little pricey for an oversize paper wieght when that moisture frys something. But it would be nice to operate at those temps and definitely some eye candy there

I have to admit that this is a beautiful looking piece of technology although the price is way too rich for my blood. I also wonder about the condensation? I have the same chip but I run mine 24/7 at 4.5ghz and 5ghz to benchmark but my temps stay around 35-39c idle and under load go up to 60ish so those temps would be amazing to have.

Saving for a good liquid system right now and could only dream of something like this.

Using TECs is about the best way you can destroy a computers efficiency.
