It's finally here. We're giving an exclusive sneak peek of our new ‘Sub-Zero Liquid Chilled’ system to our forum members. We’ll be officially launching it within a few days.
We'll be accepting orders very soon. Within a matter of days. Customers that have emailed me for pre-orders will definitely be receiving a system in time for the holidays. Edited by Alex - 08 Nov 2010 at 8:10pm |

I've actually been resting easy knowing that MagiK would be constantly monitoring the situation (And keeping DSO on task, lol!), he's my scout, I just monitor the forums and know what's going on based on his levels of excitement.
Just think, you've made it this far, you can handle a couple more days of Though I do agree, I was expecting the full launch today. |

As long as you refrain from drawing little pictures of Alex on the golf balls, I think that is a swell idea. |

The setup looks amazing and a bit complex. Will these only be for a select number of cases? It's hard for me to see this LC setup fit in the 932 much less the 922.

I could be wrong in this, but I believe that this new system is only going to be offered in the Hailstorm case and the MountainMods case. At least with everything self-contained.

How many free 5.25 bays are there if you have a single DVD Rom in it? From the front looks to be 3 maybe 4 but you really cant tell if something is behind those panels.

I know everyone is excited about ordering the PC (I would be too if I had the cash for one, even without it I've been watching almost as much as Magik) but I am wondering if they could give more details about the actual peltier setup. I've looked into them a bit and what I've seen is they're ridiculously complicated in the best case scenario and hopelessly complex for everything else. I'm sure I could figure it all out eventually myself but I would like to see how professionals do it.
Also a bit of a side note, but I saw wcboltman mention that it's only available for Hailstorm and Mountain Mod cases...does that mean digital storm is going to start offering mountain mod cases? Or will they still be special order? Because I know shipping on them would be exorbitant but if it's something they'd plan on shipping I'd be very interested in following in the steps of our legendary justin.kerr and his infamous drunken monkey. Maybe not as extraordinary, but close. Imitation is the greatest form of flattery after all. No rush for me though, got to save for a while before I can even think about getting a computer. Such is the life of a college student. So if either of these things are in the works in the far future maybe a little heads up? Oh and Digital Storm, congratulations on this new cooling system. It is worthy of the title epic. |

Heh, college is easy (comparatively) to budgeting everything. Jobs on campus are lean right now and while it's easy to survive (especially if you're lucky enough to get any good scholarships) anything that is a luxury is well out of reach. But hopefully (assuming everything goes right) I'll be in grad school next year and getting paid for my time instead of paying for it. I figure with the fiscal responsibility learned in surviving without spending money during undergrad I'll have no valid reason to spend in grad school.
Besides waiting isn't too terrible if you think about it in terms of 'just waiting for the next big thing'. I'm looking forward to being there for the X68 motherboards and whatever comes after the GTX 580 and HD 6970. Until then I deal with my little rock computer from the Precambrian era. And Magik, the first thing you do once you un-box that monster of a PC you're getting and hook it up better be taking pictures and posting them here. |

I fully intend to photo-document the arrival, unboxing and installation.....taking the time to post the pictures...may take a bit :) I will do a full review of the experience and post it here eventually.

@MagiK
Are you first here, I hope so and exactly what are you getting?
@Alex and DS, my main needs are for tremendous CPU power. When 8 core HT Xeons come out at high end speeds (ins't this soon?) I will want a dual CPU set up like this,but just a single top of the line GPU so everything should fit super cooled no problem. I presume DS could build that, since I recall seeing dual CPU's in a few pics?
Thx .. neilkaz ..

Neil, you need to post in the Configuration section of the forums.
This thread is about a specific new release of a cooling system in their Elite Product line that will be released to the public umm soon? Go here: http://www.digitalstormonline.com/compblackops.asp for some configuration options. |

Yes, however, our Sub-Zero Liquid Chilled system will not be able to cool two highly overclocked 8 core CPUs. We can still go with our high-end liquid cooling options. |

I spoke to the team, they won't be able to do high overclocks with two CPUs with the system. Both of them together would output too much heat for the system. You can still go with a Stage 6 liquid cooling system and get high overclocks.

I wonder how much one of these systems is going to end up weighing in the Hailstorm case? Weight really isn't an issue, I already know the thing is going to be big, I'm just curious. It seems like a lot of gaming rigs with extensive cooling systems can be pretty dang heavy for a PC! Of course, I once owned a laptop that weighed 14.6lbs, haha.

I would say within 50Lbs-80LBs depending on the config.

Alex is the side panel the same or did you modify to show off the new setup?

I just happened to think, is that etched Digital Storm logo going to be on all of these systems, or is that just something that was done for the display model?
