Black Label — Datacenter Rebirth Series

Black Label is our flagship line:
datacenter and workstation-class hardware, rebuilt into quiet, reliable machines for Linux, emulation, and edge AI.

What Makes a Black Label System

Source

• Datacenter pulls, enterprise-grade boards, workstation-class GPUs and CPUs.
• Carefully selected lots from trusted suppliers, tested again in our lab.

Process

• Full disassembly, visual inspection, and cleaning.
• New thermal interface material and fresh fans where needed.
• Firmware updates, BIOS tuning, and stability checks.

Burn-In

• 72 hours of continuous stress testing under controlled temperature.
• Power, temperature, and error logs monitored throughout.
• Only units that pass without issues are allowed to ship as Black Label.

Current Model: Black Label — Emulation Edition

A small, quiet tower tuned for:

• Retro and modern console emulation on Linux.
• Linux desktop and development work.
• First experiments with local AI models.

Base philosophy

• No RGB. No gimmicks.
• Reliable performance under sustained load.
• Enough headroom for future OS and software upgrades.

(Exact specifications may vary by batch. Each product listing will show the full configuration for that unit.)

Who Black Label Is For

• Developers and creators who want a serious Linux box without datacenter noise.
• Hobbyists who care about stability and thermals as much as frame rates.
• Small labs that need consistent machines for testing, CI, or edge workloads.

If you prefer one good machine that just works over a stack of disposable PCs, you are the right audience.

How We Test

Every Black Label unit:

1. Power-On Diagnostics – memory, storage, PCIe, and sensors verified.
2. Thermal Mapping – CPU and system temperatures under different workloads.
3. Noise & Fan Curve Checks – tuned for a balance of cooling and silence.
4. Long-Run Burn-In – synthetic and mixed workloads for at least 72 hours.
5. Final Linux Boot – test boot with our reference Linux image.

We keep internal logs for each unit so we understand its history even years later.

Support & Lifespan

• Limited production per week — we only ship what we can test properly.
• Email support for setup questions and basic troubleshooting.
• Common failure parts selected to be easy to replace.

We do not promise eternal life.
We do promise that each Black Label machine has been treated like a tool, not a toy.

Looking Ahead

Black Label will expand into:

• Black Label — AI Edition for local LLMs and small GPU clusters.
• Black Label — Industrial Edition as on-prem nodes for automation and telemetry.

For now, the Emulation Edition is our first public release — the same standard we will use on everything that follows.
