A user (http://gathering.tweakers.net/forum/list_messages/885837) on my home forum anounced this:

I can't give u anymore info because i do not have any !! :)
But this probably is the answer to nventiv and the XS members.
The Prometeia isn't superior to vapochill anymore, so now the argument that a prom doesn't have to have accurate sensors because they are much more powerfull, is gone.
My guess is that they have filled the system with r404a, but ofcourse, this is just a guess.
edit:
The price will lie on 825euro in Europe
This is about the same u pay for a Mach2 without the prommy kit and without the display.
The compressor used :

It is a r404a compressor, so it is likely that they have filled it with r404a, which will give them more capacity
note:
This news is a day early according to the poster.. :)

I talked to the guy who wrote about it and got the 4.3ghz at the INQ, he wouldnt give up much. I was asking him how the hell he was getting sub zero out of a vapo on a Prescott no less.
I was just dying to know his secret.
It was just a screenie shot, not stable though.

I've used the new vapo head, Its nice, compared to the old Vapo, and mach heads.

Ant1, Welcome to XtremeSystems!
Soon I would imagine since they are releasing info now.
After the Cebit would be my guess.
oy, this might be something to look forward to

Not even that impressive IMO considering the massive pipeline on Prescott and the fact that they're supposed to be thermally limited. I hope yields improve, I want a 5GHz supercooled Prescott :(

Minnyboy does that price include local import tax... I bought some RAM from USA and the import tax nearly gave me a heart attack

Says on website they filled it with R507 which is quoted as "the most powerful and effective coolant for CPU heat removal"
The performance graph looks quite impressive against the Mach II.
The cooling performance is rated as:
240W @ -25,5'C / 0W @ -48'C

Not sure Ragnorak,
I kinda forgot about import tax.... Silly me.... I was wondering why when I got my Vapo PE Ti RMAed, they sent me one from their Aussie distributor instead of from the factory....
I bought some RAM from the US as well although not from shop & told the guy to send them as a "gift" & wasn't hit with any import taxes....I hope not anyways.
You bought yours from a shop perhaps??
I'll fire off an email to Asetek to find out how much for any import taxes...
Get back to ya.

Damn i either want this or a dj equipment, hard to decide hmm.... Might do both but DIY direct die.
I think the Mach 2 isn't being sold anymore in Australia due to the distributor being taken over if im correct.

Mach II
here at I-Central AUD$1650: (http://www.i-central.com.au/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/2846)
OverclockerzSupplies Mach II Page AUD$1700 (http://www.au.store.yahoo.com/overclockerzsupplies/nvenmaciisys.html)
For some cool Aussie weather....
That's the only 2 that I know of.
Why aren't we poor Aussies good enough to sell cool stuff to...Or why do we have to wait so long for something here in AUS???

I thought OC suppliers were taken over?
On Ocau Quote
[quote]Sorry to make it hard, but basically i am trying to get rid of them asap. Overclockerz Supplies is no more. It has been bought by another corporation and is being liquidated. (mainly because they wanted my last stock of LCD monitors for cheap)
The last 2 units were owned by me, and not the company. It seems that they have sold (pending payment on the last unit).
Now i only have my last demo unit, but i probably will not be selling it, unless someone really wants to take it off my hands for around $****.
On another off topic note, my website has not been updated properly for the better part of 6 months (while going through negotiations with the other company), and i have been getting many abusive emails about my prices on the website which havent been updated. This is seriously one of the main reasons i sold my business, because of the shocking behaviour of many customers.[quote]

Yeah, gotta talk to AUS import (read moneymakers) whatevers to find out.
Will most likely try to get Asetek to get it through their OZ distributor but will find out more info on this.
Guess it looks like I'm really interested now:slobber:
