Digital Storm Debuts Cryo-TEC Cooling System with Sub-Zero Temperatures









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 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.
