Liquid Nitrogen Overclocking has a huge announcement: The new Zeus product line
featuring Dual Xeon X5680 Westmeres (12 overclocked cores!)
Shown above: The (Original) Zeus Glacier
The new Zeus models will feature two Xeon X5680 Westmere CPUs, each with 6 GB of RAM,
for a total of 12 cores and 24 threads, and a total of 12 GB of RAM.
The Zeus Tornado will be air-cooled to 4.00 GHz
GHz x 12 cores, for "48 GHz worth" of computational power.
The Zeus Glacier will be dual vapor-cooled to 4.50 GHz
GHz x 12 cores, for "54 GHz worth" of computational power.
If your "crunching" software supports hyperthreading, you will have 24 threads at your disposal!
The baseline models come with 256 GB Solid State Drives that boot Windows 7 (pre-installed).
Here are some of the basic differences between the Zeus Glacier and the Zeus Tornado:
