Interesting to see the screw placement for a tower/water cooler unit ?

Neat!

Not sure I understand your question/point though? Can you explain further what you meant/asked?

EDIT: I would imagine the holes for the heatsink mounts would be the same as the non combined parts... otherwise it would need proprietary heatsinks all around, no?

EDIT2: Would WOULD be great for such a thing is a monoblock for the CPU and GPU though...

Been a while since i saw one i suppose and with a "top of the line" GPU. What would you suppose the is block that comes with it ? or is it sold bareback ?

 

[EarthDog]

Saw one what? (will go get some coffee, perhaps its me, LOL!)

I don't imagine a block comes with it (doubt they are made at this point). I was saying it would be neat to have a monoblock to cool all of it, be it water or air. But the mounting holes appear to be the same for the platforms so any cooler should fit the CPU. The GPU may be a different story and require a universal block or a proprietary block.

A mobo with a decent GPU attached to it i need coffee as well, up the whole night coding with Disturbed in the background keeps you up for only so long... Maybe that's why i'm not making sense

Looks like a laptop board to me. It has ports on three side which doesn't make sense for standard builds.

More likely to be a pre-built machine with upgradeable RAM with a slim form factor.

Here's what a GTX 1070 looks like as part of a motherboard

Interesting proof of concept:

Would love to see this integrated into a laptop.


Mods /Admins: Wasn't sure if this should be in the GPU or motherboard forums...

I have never really pulled apart small prebuilts. Do they use SO-DIMMS in them?

 

[ATMINSIDE]

Usually, yes. Saves space and power.

Merging into the other thread about this...
