Look at that thing. It'll rip your CPU socket right out of the MB.

Smart 3-in-1 fan control
Star Ice comes with a 3-in-1 smart fan, including the consistent fan speed, manual fan speed control, and auto-detect sensor fan. The automatic mode intelligently adjusts fan speed according to system temperature while the manual mode allows experienced users to achieve more precise fan operation.

Am I wrong or is it the first cooler by ASUS?

If you view the flash demo, you can add a 2nd fan to the exit air, and use any fan you choose. It looks like it takes a 80mm fan.
If I were to air cool, I'd stick with a Thermaright XP-120, Xp-90, SL-948u or a SLK-947u
These are tried and true performers, that Asus heatsink looks like it belongs in a womens hair salon, and it's more than a Thermalright at $49.99 us dollars

I think it looks cool and very different to every other cooler on the market.
I don't think the XP-120 will fit in my case with my MSI K8N, and the XP-90 doesn't look particulary impressive (I've never seen one in a pc though), I'm going to look into it.
If I find I can fit a XP-120 I shall get that, if not I'll see if this will fit.

Okay then..
I think I'll get one. But I might get an Star Ice anyway just to play with it in a few months.
Thanks for your help.
Now what fan is good for XP-120?
I don't have a fan controller yet, but noise doesn't bother me. I have several decent 2.1 speakers on my pc and Logitech Z2200 as my main ones, so I can't hear my pc anyay.

Tried 24W Delta?
But I think it's designed to operate away from any lifeform not using ear protection.
