Frostbyte, but nothing to do with Crytek's engine. Rather, this is some other form of cool tech.

Origin PC today announced a new cooling solution for those looking for something above what the boutique PC maker previous offered. New is the Frostbyte 360 liquid cooling system, which features silent pumps, a high efficiency triple 120mm radiator, and zero maintenance.

The Origin PC Genesis configured with the Frostbyte 360 starts at $1599. Origin boasts that overclocking teams are reaching speeds up to 5.2GHz with the new cooler.

Origin PC's exclusive Frostbyte 360 Liquid Cooling System features:

•    Origin professional CPU overclocking up to 5.2GHz on multiple cores

•    Micro-channel copper CPU block and 360mm high efficiency copper radiator

•    Embedded temperature sensor delivers the copper surface temperature with an accuracy of +/- 1C

•    Ultra silent operation and exceptionally low weight

•    Factory sealed, maintenance free operation

•    Thermal resistance as low as 0.085 C/W

This won't be for those who build their own systems, but rather for anyone looking for a complete, tweaked gaming PC.

    At that price I may as well just buy a computer with dual processors to get double the computing power.

    Dont matter. Last sentence says it all and will not be offered off the shelf. Gotta see the eye popping price tag on the rigs that carry this thing.

    Am I the only one who notices the mistake?! Frostbite is an engine developed by EA and used by Dice in Battlefield and Mirror Edge series (yes, I DO hope for Mirror's Edge 2...)

    I would by the cooling system by itself, don't care for the rest of it though.

    This unit is WAY overpriced IMO. This is nothing more than a glorified Corsair H100 unit and I don't understand what exactly the $1200 price increase will give me to make it worth it... other than a much larger dent in my wallet.
