no Ultra-D / SLI-D/DR version?...

impressize....very impressive...

calling for @allngap....if u making this one with all ur acrylic toyz...sure boom!!

hey..how much that freakin' stuff..? might be interested..hehe

Almost all the motherboard which has the DDR and mosfets located at around the same place can use this fan mount. The mounting holes are the same since all of the are ATX boards.


From his first guess, he said that the manufacturers will cut it on their laser cutter for USD2.25/min. So I guess it takes about 5 - 7 mins to cut one piece. About $11 - $15 + shipping? It will include all necessary screws for the installation.

that is not a problem at all. just afraid that the vibrations from the fans would resonate only

but the mounts are really expensive....

the master is here.. wif some comment

good concept..but i think should've made it with bigger fans.. 2 40mm fans won't do much for the memory..

80mm?92mm?
i've seen the same consept done by my friend(custom made)with 80mm led fan.

i'm thinking low profile 120mm.. but i'm trying to design something that will hold the full 120mm fans.. already have a rough design for the low profile ones..

why not use atholon xp stock fans ??

i think this can be the solution? you can ezly found when you got your casing..

i m gonna get a piece acrylic ansd try this...gonan use 2x 6cm fan

If you guys use a 60mm or 120mm fan, you will be eating the space of the heatsink. The designer of this thingy made this so that big heatsink, waterblocks and even phase change evaporators are able to be put on with the mount already mounted on the board. Think about that before jumping to bigger fans.

i m using si-120..there is some free space in the middle...so i might just take some of it space lo
i dunno just a try.....not good then nvm...take it out hehehe

As long as you have space for the heatsink and fan then should be ok. I just wanted to remind you guys about the heatsink space.

i did this using dual delta 60mm on the rams for gsan, with clip on design on the ram slots


the idea is not only limited to 40mm fans, blowers can be utilised as well.

Any other pics?maybe side view.

How about putting spans or rubber (high quality ones ar) at the mounting screws?
Like the one used for hyper6+,and some GC hsf. That will lessen the vibration.
Or even better sockets+spans like the CPU socket but that's going to be costly.

I'm interested if ur making 1 allngap

now this is wat i'm looking for. someone pls mass-produce this

It's on the way bro.....lol.

really, whos' doing it??

Someone in XS forums. He got the guys to work on them for USD4 per piece I think, not including the prototypes. So I would guess about 10 bucks each or so when it is done.

no local made ?

kc, i'm interested if ur gonna order it

allngap will do

I am monitoring it, no worries. Once my friend says he has the product in hand, I will order 2, one for you, one for me. But depends on how much it is la. I won't pay $50 bucks for it. lol

i think i can do it myself, just that i dont know where to get the mounting screws



This post has been edited by khalil: Jan 30 2006, 03:22 PM

kc, i'm interested as well if ur order 2 , can add another 1 for me ?

This post has been edited by irenic: Jan 30 2006, 03:40 PM

Sure.

Go ask a shop for mounting screws.

One question guys......do u guys want with the fans or without???

wat fan size do they use??

it is stated at the 1st post if you read carefully

yeah they do didn't it?? sorry

with fans how much? i think better with fans

This is the updated diagram, prototype version 3. Frag changed the fan sizes to bigger fans - 2 x 50mm and 3 x 40mm:



I do not know how much yet, but I will let you know soon. The fans can be purchased anywhere, so you can make your decision on it when it comes out.

dude, i just noticed something. on the expert, the ram slots are on the left side of the proc socket rite?? but mine's an ultra-d, the ram slots are on the top side of the proc....

so that means mine's not compatible lar with this prototype any version for ultra-d??

Ultra D versions will be out in about a week after this one is done.

ok la if that's the case i'm gonna wait for the ultra-d version

hehe.. luckily i'm using expert

Prototype is done! Here are the pics:

looks cool but i'm doubt that xp90/xp90c/xp120/si120 still can fit it or not.

XP90 might have a chance. But XP120.......quite impossible. lol

how strong is this arcylic composite? it sems that at the ram cooling end there is no support for those fans.. i wonder how durable this thing would be...

The fans are supr light, 40MM and 50MM fans. Won't break don't worry.

kcnyc, u think that pro series can fit?
try gave a longer screw for them...

looks nice&cool by looking at the pics looks like xp90c won't fit well at least my money is safe for awhile

Nice fans...how much cfm for each fan?

nice nice kc.. now waiting for ur good news

Seriously I am not even sure what is the CFM of the fans. lol

Westley: What will longer screws do???? And what pro series?

corsair pro series ram...

If you want it higher, than find a higher screw yourself and put in on. Coz not many people buy those bling bling DDRs. lol

This post has been edited by kcnyc: Feb 4 2006, 05:09 PM

the acrylic is cut using laser.

i'm really afraid of the resonance of all the 5 fans, but still this config is nice

are the fans loud?

Nope..........

Sorry mate's but moving this to H/w section as it's more relevant over there

I beg to differ.
This belongs to "overclocking united" section.
It is about cooling with fans and hard-modding with plexiglass.
Please move it back to "cooling and hard-modding"section.

This is an issue which I have raised but no has bothered to answer in the first place. So I'm doing this at my own discretion. And we also do have a cooling section over here at hardware and this solution in my view is more towards stabillity IMHO

All air cooling (For processor and mobo chipset) discussion and queries from now on should be done here. Currently open topics will be left to continue but as of 15th February 2006, any newly open topics regarding air cooling will be merged here. And for cooling GFX's, please use the specific topics covering the GFX that you're using existing in Hardware main to discuss and query.

Thank you

Eh but no overclock - means no stability issues. So why is it hardware? Its modding by the way. Not a single company is selling it wor. So how can it be mainstream hardware section? Just want you to clarify pls......

Oh and btw the guy has started selling this fan mount. Here's a copy of the sales thread:

SysXtreme DFI SLI-DR Expert & RDX200 RAM / MOSFET Cooling Bracket

Welcome to the official XS sales page for my newest creation! I've currently got all of the parts and brackets ordered for the first batch which should arrive by next friday, so let's get sellin' em!

Overview:
This cooling bracket is designed to cool your raging hot RAM and MOSFET's on the SLI-DR Expert and RDX200 motherboards. We all know that the key to high overclocks and a more stable rig revolves around power, quality parts, and COOL OPERATION! The bracket is precision Co2 laser cut from high quality 3/16" clear acrylic and houses two 50mm fans for cooling your RAM and three 40mm fans to keep your MOSFETS cool. Please be advised that this bracket has currently only be verified to fit correctly with the use of watercooled CPU's and possibly phase change. Some heatsinks MAY fit with this bracket but I don't have a compatibility list put together yet. At this stage of production I'm willing to sell to people with various heatsinks for testing purposes and will buy my brackets back if you find they are not compatible with your system (minus all shipping charges). I have tested this bracket with the XP-90 and it does not fit, therefor the XP-90 and XP-120's can be ruled out of the compatibility chart thus far.

XP90 cannot FIT!
lol

I think my waterblock also cant fit due to the tubing ...

Looks good and the quality of finish is above par.

Oh also, great invention without much innovation since this being offered to a community of modders who could do this by themselves If this guy marketed to gaming system manufacturers who want to be unique then he'd probably do much better Then again, I'm sure this is all just a hobby rather than a proper business proposition

doesnt the tubing run 90 degrees to the block straight out? Should be no problem. If a Prometeia evap can fit there the waterblock tubings should be no problem.

Intend to bring in brand new Freezer 7 Pro and Freezer 64 Pro for P4 LGA775 and AMD X2 processors. Strictly for dual core processors. Brand new, no nonsense Swiss design hor, not Taiwan, not Japan, not China, not HK, not Korea which tend to be big, bulky, heavy or noisy with loud flashy/colours/display and snazzy design that just suck more power from the psu and more money for the massive chunk of virtual metal fridge.

I find Freezer coolers among the most compact of all O/c coolers, so should generally fit into most LGA775 or X2 mobos. Very quiet, will not distract audio from games or music with fans that make ghastly throat-clearing noise from Malaysian Idol rejects kekeke... .

Hope to bring in March, COD, strictly deal in Malacca, home of IT innovations.

u got any picture ?

how is it strictly for dual cores?

Install freezer pro in few minute only.

malacca, IT innovations?
joke.
Cooler strictly for dual-core processors???
The X2, Opetron look exactly the same as the AMD64.
How's that strictly?

is this that normal freezer64Pro/freezer7Pro?..





or something newer than this threadstarter?..

Check out http://www.arctic-cooling.com

What I like abt Arctic Cooling is their dedication to the cooling stuffs, with lots of research effort.

It is relatively compact for a O/c HSF. If you get other towering O/c coolers, you have to worry whether it fits to the mobo and the case. It cuts you to the O/c job quickly than getting you fixated on the fixtures.

good HSF....without sacrifizing....the size and weight.....

Merging this topic under airccoling discussion and results

wut is da best performance for air cooling..?

nothing better than using national brand fan

using national brand fan???
wut brand?
i mean for cpu cooling

lol

back to topic, around our msia market/forum here, best 1 will be ninja i trust, u can order it via bulk order

^
|

.. that's "BIG"

Me recommend Thermelright
But there's a nice cooler Ninja, quite nice .. try find in Bulk Order

This is actually really easy to make ourselves. BUT I was just thinking, y all the hassle? Y not just cut a 120mm blowhole on the window n just blow it over the whole mobo? That wud b a whole lot easier n also there'll b a lot more air flow from the 120mm fan right?

http://www.hardwarezone.com/articles/view....18&id=1848&pg=2

lol curi from sg HWZ

looks like its gonna compete with teh ninja

possibly even beat it

i think u must have 2 intake n 2 exhaust fans for ur casing.....

OMG. That's just plain ridiculous. Very soon mobos r gonna need steel reinforcement plates behind. Mati lar the mobo if u bolt this monster on a vertical mobo. N if u look carefully at the 2x120 fans, they're not utilising them to the max. The fans overhang the fins by a lot. Also I reckon that if anybody were serious enuf bout needing so much cooling power they'd just jump straight to water cooling.

Merging this under aircooling discussion

i'm using it right now and my vcore is 1.58
last time using AMD stock HSF my full load C is around 48-50
but after change to big typhoon, it only helps me to decrease the C by 5 or 6 C
now my full load is around 42-44 C
why?
this big typhoon was made to decrease around how many C?

i think 44C under full load is consider good already for that vcore + air cooling. The advantage of a good hsf is ur temp is consistent..
let say u apply more vcore, then u will see a bigger different between big thypoon n stock hsf

but i wish to see it helps me decrease around 10C ma coz for my vga cooler from sytrin it can do that.. but wonder why TT cpu cooler cant do that..

hahaha. bro hw can u get 10C for just a water cooling. Try using dry ice then. mayb can cool down 20C or 30C for it. anyway -5C is alot for an overclocker. am i wrong?

This post has been edited by kidmad: Mar 15 2006, 01:08 AM

im using air cooling only..
thermaltake big typhoon.. thought this hsf can decrease around 10C
but in the review their big typhoon can decrease around 12C
but my sytrin vga cooler can decrease around 10-12 C

u'll see major diff if u use it with the procs that generate more heat such as presscott or any dual core procs.. its kinda waste to use it with venice..

neway may i know their noise level?..

Eh I just got a TT Big Typhoon also. The screws holding down the clamps are so hard to take out coz the big fins on top. You can't use a screwdriver and have direct contact with the screws! You have to turn it at angle and I am afraid that now the screws are worn down. Anybody have any tips on how to get to the screws? Here is a pic of what I am talking about:

The TT Silent Tower I used last time is using the same mounting n yeah it's a huge pain to install n remove. But here's a tip for u. The chrome H Plate is actually really soft n springy. U can bend it down by just using ure thumb. Press down with ure thumb near the mounting screw n u'll actually c it bending downwards. Dont worry bout it coz it's made of a springy material. While pressing down with ure thumb, just use ure other hand to turn the screw by hand. Works really well coz after u release the plate it springs back up n it's nice n tight. Actually tighter than I cud get it with the screwdriver. BTW, y on earth r u messin with a Typhoon when u haf a Prommy? Product review?

Well you see this is what happened. My Editor was testing the FX60, and then I told him that my custom cooler was coming. So he wanted to ship the FX60 to me. So he went to his FX60 rig, and tried to take out the CPU from the A8N SLI Deluxe board and the Big Typhoon. He couldn't get it out and worn down the screws!

So he sent me the FULL set - CPU, Big Typhoon and the motherboard. When I opened the package I was so shocked! Coz it is rather dangerous transporting the whole thing in a box with the Big Typhoon on top of the CPU.

But anyway, I tried so many times to get at the screws. It wouldn't move as the heads were worn, couldn't get traction! I was gona give the hacksaw a go at the screw and saw it off, but was afraid the metal flakes will be scattered all over the board - might cause a short. So I slowly used a locking wrench and gripped the screw at the threads and kept at it. Slowly it loosened.......and I got it out!

Man it was a PAIN! Bad design seriously, they should give you a 90 degree screwdriver or something to get at the screws.

Will give your suggestion a try, I might need to put the Big Typhoon on the FX60 coz my FX60 hates the cold! Can't go over 240HTT under phase. But when it is on air......no problems. Thanks for the tip ian!



I think these kind of screwdrivers is best for the Big Typhoon.

so big typhoon is not good for u guys?
i'm not really satisfy with the performance.. the noise level is around 16dBA only coz using 1300rpm fan only

I'm using TT Big Typhoon also... decreased the cpu temp by 5 - 7 deg C which b4 i used stock LGA775 hf... u can change the fan if u like... but 16dB noise is way better than stock 4+ dB...

Don't get me wrong, I like the cooling performance - its good cooling no doubt. Just that the stupid retention system screws is bugging me out. I bought a huge 104CFM Panaflo for it. eheheh 41db! woot.......*KC closes his ears*

Seriously this is the BIGGEST heatsink size wise I have ever owned:
