Asetek Liquid Cooled All-In-One PC

Cooling is one of the most important aspects to be taken during the construction of high-performance computer systems, since this is a factor that can determine the level of performance that a system can offer, as well as his life. In this respect, Asetek, one of the industry’s leading suppliers of Liquid cooling solutions, announced today that one of its cooling solutions……

Liquid cooling is a new world of users increased productivity enabled by whisper quiet computing. The ultra-quiet Z400 and Z800 liquid-cooled models represent an important new trend in computing performance – improving user productivity through a low noise level,” says Gary Baum, Senior Vice President of Marketing Asetek.” Asetek Liquid cooling is the tool to achieve peace and high performance.

Featuring Asetek cooling solutions, HP’s workstation line Z can give good results at the operational level that will not disturb the end user. In addition, an extremely silent cooling solution to the Z-series workstation customers with increased performance of the system processor and graphics processor.

We’ve been moaning about middling AIO performance for a while now, and outside of Apple’s spendy iMacs, not many have stepped up to the plate with equivalent grunt to what you might be able to splice together with a separate case and a bit of elbow grease. That won’t stay true for long, however, if Asetek’s prototype gets picked up by one of your favorite vendors.

The all-in-one segment of the desktop market is projected to see an annual growth rate of 13% over the next 5 years,” said Ben Bajarin, Consumer Technology Analyst at Creative Strategies, Inc. “Achieving the full potential of this attractive form factor requires PC manufacturers to deliver greater performance at ever more attractive price points. Utilizing desktop processors in these devices is a key strategy for improving price and performance. We see liquid cooling as an enabling technology for OEMs seeking to implement this strategy.

Asetek’s AIO prototype takes advantage of liquid cooling’s inherent ability to efficiently capture and transport large amounts of heat to a location where it can conveniently be exhausted from the system. Heat generated by the 130W CPU and 75W graphics processor is captured within the main enclose and transported to the stand of the all-in-one. A small radiator and a pair of fans easily remove heat from the liquid and a pump returns cooled liquid to the main enclosure to capture more heat.

Driving more performance from within thin profile computers such as all-in-ones, 1U servers, blade servers and performance notebook PCs means increasing thermal density,” notes Steve Branton, Director of Marketing at Asetek. “This all-in-one prototype demonstrates one way that liquid cooling overcomes the thermal challenges that arise when squeezing high performance into thin form factors. The engineering team at Asetek continues to innovate and expand the liquid cooling options for cooling thin form factor PCs.

This liquid-cooled beastie — which proudly proclaims it has the same profile as the iMac at 58mm in thickness — is capable of powering and chilling both a 2.66GHz Core i7-920 and a GeForce GTX 280M. That’s a total TDP output of over 200W, which is handled by a proprietary radiator design that’s integrated into the stand and some pump-assisted action convecting the heat away from the chips. It both sounds and looks like a winner to us — check it out after the break to see what you think.
