Nice heatsink, but I'd replace the fan.
why ... the TY-147 are among the best fans around o_O (i still have mine i use on a Prolimatech MK-26 on a 8800 Ultra) at 1300rpm they are virtually silent and no need for pwm control...although they can

with what would you replace it? (do not say "Noctua's fan" ... i'd hate you forever ...


ok ... maybe not forever ... )

beauty ...

See edit...

It's the size. Too darn big in many situations. I would rather have a pair of 92mm or 100mm low-profile fans that are a bit louder but fit better into a case than the fan in the picture.
 
Noctuna fans are pretty good, i get a little fishy over how Noctuna get's such great results.
i just hate how overpriced and overrated Noctua is ... and many other get great result as they do and cheaper most of the time ...

i see ... hum ... i used 120mm and 140mm Corsair AF on the MK-26 but that was not better than the 150mm TY-147 (140mm hole space )

dual 100mm Scythe Kaze Jyu Slim were good also :laugh:

The case has more than enough space for both the fan and the Shaman. A pair of smaller fans would not reduce the width of the card at all because of the cooler itself and also look super silly on it, so there really is no point to your suggestion.
 
Dont want to brag but thats my model 720 cfm

Great lockdown weapon.
Idiot at door not understanding the meaning of lockdown... here is your change you filthy animal...
 
these last post cracked me up and having a burst of laughter at 1:28am was not a bright idea ....

anyway: like i care! my neighbor are here only on weekend and holidays and usually it's them who piss me off :laugh:
 
These turbines are air ventilation system booster. Mine was used by a dude who growed weed in his apartment then got visited by the cops. They thrown all of his stuff so I got it and desinfected. The model I have is quite expensive so it was worth the hassle.
 
No need even the normal 5GHz clocked 9900K is enough of a stove itself....

Here in Finland on io-tech (the site made by Sampsa Kurri for Muropaketti back in the day), we say that when we talk about its process, just type 14nm and press + for second or two :laugh:
 
WOW! I knew something like that existed, but I'd never seen it. Are you sure that's real and not a mock-up?
TPU press release from 2010.

KitGuru has a review:
 
Does it actually work(at keeping the PC cool)?
Eh........No different than any other big fan, just a lot more pressure. It was an experiment mostly. Picture looks radical though. :D

It looks impressive, no doubt! I wonder if there is a way to configure such a device to get a proper cooling effect from it? The idea behind that being that extreme OCing could be done with just air...

Yes. Instead of blowing cool air on cpu you suck hot air from it. You know some cases have a tube stuck inside the case to get cold air from side panel. You need to leave cpu fan connected so just plug a fan that goes on your vga for exemple. Leave the tube there and stick that big ass fan on side of panel in a way to getting all the heat out by the tube for the cpu.
 
Pixel Pipes is selling two one Chaintech GeForce 4 Ti4600, and a Albatron GeForce 4 Ti4600. The Albatron has an issue with video output over the VGA port but otherwise is fine through DVI.
