That link text sure is misleading now. Edit: Jeez, the whole article is playing with words. Going by the title on the page I thought Intel already cancelled the launch again or something.

A chiller with a 1hp compressor has about (at best) 1 ton or 12,000 btu/hr capacity. That's about 3500W capacity. All under ideal conditions. In the real world, that box is probably about 10,000 btu/hr. That's 2.93kW. Considering other losses, we're closer to 2kW. If all it's doing is cooling the CPU block, it should suffice. If the water temp is close to 9C, that should keep the core temps under load around 60-70C which considering what's going on, is pretty good.

Around all the secrecy, it would not surprise me if the water block was custom and was direct die to water contact!

Gamers Nexus just benchmarked this thing. Obviously they couldn't get a 5 GHz overclock, but they did get a respectable 4.5 GHz OC out of it.

70db on fans. Ouch.

1500 or so total produced, good luck if the motherboard fails.
