While we all sit at our work and home PCs every day, wishing they were a little bit faster, if you owned this monster, speed would be your last concern. The 5.46GHz uber machine is a joint project by Kingston Technology and Western Digital. The system uses asetek's VapoChill technology to enable the P4 3.8GHz CPU to run at an incredible 5.46GHZ. The machine also makes use of asetek's WaterChill graphics and motherboard chipset cooling, Kingston Technology's HyperX RAM and the WD Raptor X 150 GB SATA drive from Western Digital.
"To reach a CPU speed at 5.46 GHz it is crucial to have very efficient cooling on all essential hardware. That is why we have chosen phase-change cooling reaching CPU surroundings close to -33 Celsius degrees under load. Additionally the graphics card and the motherboard chipset are chilled by asetek's highly recognized and awarded water-cooling product line; WaterChill," comments Morten Berg-Christensen, Senior Communications Manager at asetek.
I can't even imagine how much one of these would set you back, but with less cooling it could probably double as a replacement for your central heating. The PC will be on display in the asetek booth in Hall 22, Stand C20, at this year's CeBIT.
