Default HP Cools Computers with Tiny Jet Engines

It looks like Hewlett-Packard has come up with a solution to the problem of computer servers producing more heat with every new generation of processors.

Hewlett-Packard is looking to model jet airplanes to relieve heat-stressed computer servers. The fans run so fast and produce so much air pressure that they should be able to provide the cooling needs for the next several generations of HP servers.

Check it out the article at Technology Review here: http://www.technologyreview.com/read...92&ch=infotech

It might be good NvidiaDude, but if by any chance that computer is in your bedroom, you probably won't get any sleep at night. I bet that thing is loud.

Im sure water cooling will be more developed and become more and more commen, then soon it will replace the need for air cooling.

Jet engines just dont seem to be the right direction to head!

true but im not bothered how much noise it makes as long as it does a very good job of getting rid of that heat
