To be honest i would love to see how the dual versions do, it would be awesome if corsair could start selling one the thickness of the H70 as I'm sure it would do great with 4 quiet fans in push/pull.... would cost too much though :laugh:
I guess i should stop being lazy and just shell out for a custom loop once i upgrade.:roll: i love how everyone is instantly complaining and saying it sucks just because it does not suit their needs when its not for us anyway, its for OEM's and system builders as it says in the article.
Not sure if it was any good since the computer was DOA
If people want a small computer then they can buy a small computer. Water cooling isn't needed in these tiny little 92mm cheapskate OEM cases because the CPU will always be a low end AMD Athlon X2 or a Pentium Dual Core.
I have actually ran Prime95 on a Celeron 420 with no heatsink on. It went for like 5 minutes before getting to 70C+. Computers don't get hot like people think, just the super high end ones, and why would you want a small case for that? It would be like putting a V8 in a VW Golf. Absolutely pointless. You have a powerful computer, so brag about it with a big case.
Also by V8, I don't mean a nice tidy and small efficient German one, I mean a massive 6.2L American one.
It's just that having both 120mm and 92mm as options gives more choices to oem's, asetek also makes 80mm radiators as well, i don't know if they sell coolers that use it but surly you would agree multiple sizes of the same product is a good thing due to company's being able to create more varied products to suit more needs.
One thought that occurred to me is use in a htpc although many would not have room and i must admit i intend to put an asetek cooler in my htpc when i upgrade my gaming rigs cooler... the thing is that just means i will be putting my H50 into the htpc as it has a space for a 120mm fan :laugh:
I'm not saying these things are great products or anything, I'm just trying to say they have their place in the world even if its a very small and different one to most other coolers :laugh:
So i tried my old phenom 9850 at 2.8ghz and it was much better but was getting too hot with the stock hsf so i had to take it back out and due to the case I'm using there is very few suitable options for a better cooler thus why for now I'm leaving the athlon in there until i get a new cooler for my gaming rig then the htpc will get the H50 as its a perfect fit.
If it was not for my lazy ways the front of the case could easily be modded to take the dual 92mm model but I'm lazy and cheap so the htpc pretty much only gets old parts and next to no effort :laugh:
Then there is the rack mounted server market.
These have their place. Just because they have no place in an enthusiast setup, does not make them a pointless product. They wouldn't sell them if there was no market for them.
