stupid design. first its big. so there will be problem with compatibility issue on mobo and casing. 2nd this big hsf is going to heat up other component such as the chipset or rams. cause the air is directed down. 3rd since the heat pipes are up on the top, y are there fins connected to the base of the cpu block? hot air from the heat pipe is blown straight down and heat up the cpu block again.(i recall thermalright improvised the xp120 with the si120 design.) 4th, its huge and ugly, aesthetic value 0. 5th its gonna be heavy and either the retention bracket is going to break or your mobo will. Lastly its gonna be pricy. trust me.. just like the tai chi casing

p.s forgot.. large quantity of air is going to push down.. so where do they go later? unlike those tower hsf like ninja, hot air is expelled via the exhaust casing fan. just my 2 cent
