Moderating the impact of integrating water-cooled servers into data centres
Air cooling has worked well for systems that deploy processors up to 150W, but IT equipment is now being manufactured with processors well above 150W where air cooling is no longer practical. The power for one company’s graphics processor unit (GPU) is currently at 300W. Another company produces a CPU announced at 205W and a many integrated cores (MIC) GPU announced at 320W.
