Details On The "Prometeia" Cooling System
The company Chip-Con has developed a compressor cooling system that is sold in the form of a barebones system. We received the top-of-the-line configuration from the manufacturer for both Intel and AMD platforms. Compared to competitors, such as Vapochill, Chip-Con's system is based on a power compressor, the Danfoss NL11F with an 11.2cm³ piston hub. The manufacturer thus builds the largest model from the "N" series from Danfoss. According to the specifications, the compressor is meant to reach temperatures ranging from -10°C to -35°C. In our last test, we showed that it's possible to get significantly more out of it. Through our modifications, the system reached a maximum temperature of -52°C.
One of the advantages of the Prometeia compared to its rivals is that users have the option to continue using their existing systems. The only thing that you have to do is drill a hole at the base of the PC case so that the cooling tube can be installed. The cooling system can be quickly placed or installed under the PC tower. It's not necessary to move components around, although the motherboard needs to be taken out in order to install the system.
