Key benefits for Life Science research

Complete data privacy & security

on-premise deployment ensures sensitive medical and genomic data never leaves your secure environment, critical for HIPAA/GDPR/FDA compliance and proprietary research data protection

Sustained high performance

up to 50% higher performance, 100% of time at Boost Clocks, zero thermal throttling, eliminates performance degradation during long-running simulations that can span days or weeks

Long-term reliability

up to 3 years of maintenance-free operation, stable thermal management prevents system failures during critical research workflows where interruptions can cost millions of dollars

Fast storage & high-bandwidth networking

optimized for CryoSPARC shared file system, Relion fast storage requirements, Ansys NVMe SSD specifications, supports 10Gbps network requirements

Ultra-low noise operation

minimal noise even at full load, ideal for quiet laboratory environments where researchers work alongside systems

TECHNOLOGY

Liquid cooling technology

engineered for sustained performance: low flow rate 1-1.5 liters/min (vs 3-5 liters in competitors), low system pressure reduces leak risk, operates 100% of time at Boost Clocks, eliminates thermal throttling entirely, up to 50% higher sustained performance compared to air-cooled alternatives

Engineered, not assembled approach

custom-designed water blocks fit in single PCIe slot (most competitors take two slots), cools power delivery circuits (motherboard VRM) — unique feature, works with hot air up to 35-40°C (no need for air conditioning), enables deployment in existing laboratory infrastructure without HVAC upgrades

On-premise deployment architecture

complete data privacy through secure on-premise infrastructure, critical for HIPAA/GDPR/FDA compliance and proprietary research data

Energy-efficient design

cooling system consumes 300W (vs 2000W air-cooled), low operating temperatures 60-65°C for CPU (vs 90-95°C in laptops, 80+°C for GPU in air-cooled), up to 40% overall energy savings
