In this special guest feature, Bob Fletcher from Verne Global reflects on how liquid cooling technologies on display at SC19 represent more than just a wave. “My intuition suggests that the larger established water-cooling users will mostly stick with their familiar high-pressure solution, but the newer green field deployments will be fertile ground for the new vacuum CDUs. In particular, the AI community as their compute accelerators become increasingly water-cooled, while maintaining their short 2-year product life.”
Intel steps up with 28 core Xeon Processor for High-End Workstations
January 30, 2019 by
Today Intel announced that their new 28-core Intel Xeon W-3175X processor is now available. “Built for handling heavily threaded applications and tasks, the Intel Xeon W-3175X processor delivers uncompromising single- and all-core world-class performance for the most advanced professional creators and their demanding workloads. With the most cores and threads, CPU PCIe lanes, and memory capacity of any Intel desktop processor, the Intel Xeon W-3175X processor has the features that matter for massive mega-tasking projects such as film editing and 3D rendering.”
Plug and Play Liquid Cooling for AI and HPC
November 29, 2018 by
Cutting edge AI and HPC clusters require the highest performance versions of the latest CPUs and GPUs. Coming along with the throughput, these components bring high heat loads. Often, liquid cooling becomes a requirement in these circumstances. This sponsored post from Asetek explores how increasing AI and HPC workloads, as well as accompanying components like CPUs and GPUs, are heating up computing and bringing liquid cooling to the forefront.

July 10, 2018 by
In this video from ISC 2018, Steve Branton from Asetek describes the company’s wide array of liquid cooling solutions for HPC. “With 11 systems the TOP500 including the 9th fastest HPC installation in the world, Asetek’s RackCDU D2C is used by HPC sites worldwide to maximize sustained throughput, decrease energy use and increase cluster density. Asetek is the world-leading provider of cost-effective energy efficient liquid cooling systems for data centers, HPC clusters and high-performance PCs.”
Managed Implementation of Liquid Cooling
June 28, 2018 by
The need for high reliability cooling without reducing the rack density to handle high wattage nodes is no easy task. “Asetek’s direct-to-chip liquid cooling provides a distributed cooling architecture to address the full range of heat rejection scenarios. It is based on low pressure, redundant pumps and sealed liquid path cooling within each server node.”
Asetek Provides Liquid Cooling QCT at NCHC in Taiwan
June 22, 2018 by
Today Asetek announced the deployment of the company’s latest heat rejection technology at the National Center for High-Performance Computing (NCHC) in Hsinchu, Taiwan. “Announced in April, the new liquid cooled NCHC cluster to be implemented by QCT will focus on artificial intelligence. A major goal of the project is to achieve a significant PUE figure, requiring the use of liquid cooling to create a mix of liquid cooled NVIDIA V100 GPUs and Intel Xeon Scalable Processors in a high-density configuration. As one of Asetek’s newest OEM Partners, the NCHC installation by QCT represents both the first major HPC site resulting from the collaboration, and one of the first deployments of the latest InRackCDU.”
Asetek Liquid Cooling comes to Latest Intel Compute Modules at ISC18
June 21, 2018 by
