there is a new review of a crystal orb here http://www.explosivepc.com/article.php?def=crystalorb1.txt&p1=crystalorb1.txt&p2=crystalorb2.txt&p3=crystalorb3.txt looks like it has been changed a bit with a cool finger guard

Looks like it will need a little lapping. - see pic.

Does anyone have one of these?
Is it better than an orange orb, Blue orb...

I have a blue orb cooling the northbridge and it required serious lapping. Bottom actually concave. Took a large file to rough it in and a good amount of filing too. Lapped up nice though. It would not fit the holes from the "greenie" so I made a thin copper plate to put under it w/correct hole spacing. No problems! Not too bad for this application, Video card, maybe a little lightweight.
