The future of PC cooling

Alacritan · 05-31-04, 04:13 PM

Will it beat the SP94?

theboss85 · 05-31-04, 04:14 PM

disgusting

krag · 05-31-04, 05:13 PM

Man! What a joke! Its lookin' more & more like phase change is gonna be mainstream. If I gotta put one of those rediculous monstrisities in my case then I might as well get a Mach 2.

SewerBeing · 05-31-04, 05:14 PM

looks like watercooling is gonna look a lot more attractive now, Heck just look at the size of thermalright's soon to be released hs

Disputant · 05-31-04, 05:14 PM

That just looks ridiculous.

Almost looks like the one memory slot may be unusable, at least a tight fit.

Electron Chaser · 05-31-04, 05:49 PM

ALL I can Say is WTF!!! I hope that thing comes with tie down anchors to mount your case to the Floor.

Yamiyanazz · 05-31-04, 05:52 PM

I'm not sure I could even get my PSU/RAM/Case Panel installed with that thing...I do believe it is a custom made job...nothing trhat will ever be mainstream.

[KX3]rAge · 05-31-04, 06:23 PM

that would rip the mobo out so fast...

Prisoner1138 · 05-31-04, 06:30 PM

Why would that rip the mobo out? Plenty of heatsinks are that size already and do just fine. That's just a big light plastic shroud over it with a large fan, big deal.

And it does look completely ridiculous.

Neco · 05-31-04, 06:41 PM

The only thing more funny than the pic is how many people actually take it seriiously

haha

runsalone · 05-31-04, 06:53 PM

It looks like the design of that thing is fairly inefficient. A raised heatsink is connected to the copper plate that touches the cpu by a few heat pipes. Looks like a gimmick to me!

I bet the thermalright SP-97/94 cool much better than that ... abomination.

Captain Newbie · 05-31-04, 07:28 PM

I think we need to start innovating, and stop ramping clock speeds.

I bet that won't happen.

MightyJoe · 05-31-04, 08:03 PM

lol, looks like a freaking jet turbine

Alacritan · 05-31-04, 08:35 PM

I can't believe anyone is taking this seriously. I thought it was hilarious when I first saw it.

Tatuya · 05-31-04, 08:37 PM

O MY GOD, you've got to be kidding me...I thought that was a custiom made phase change system for a minute...how is that going to fit in a case?

Nico3k · 05-31-04, 09:08 PM

uhh i saw coolermaster's version of that at frys once. coolermaster's is like a silver turbine looking thing

Disputant · 05-31-04, 09:21 PM

Yeah, I think that CoolerMaster Jet 4 weighs like 24 oz or something like that.
