Rosewill RCX-Z5-Ultra 92mm
this this looks crazy, i want one!
Holy crap that thing looks crazy... It looks like it'd be better on a non-tower style case. Speaking of which, I might actually do something nuts like that.. but I dunno...
Neat cooler there though...
Well, looks good, but I found a benchmark of it: linky.
Interesting as this product is said to be made by auras.. rosewill must have bought the design. Looks kick ass tho ;)
Shame it's made by Rosewill. Rosewill, makers of of all sorts of poor quality crap for your PC.
well as someone said on another forum it seems that people are going for looks vs performance. they should have made it completely out of copper.
And with the central area larger :) maybe with more pipes. And how good a contact can a pivoting heat pipe make? just ranting :) Still, I would use that thing in a build where it would be overkill and use the looks as a center piece.. I mean, it is sooo shiny.
Yea, I don't know about their more expensive stuff, but they're cheaper stuff is definitely cheaper for a reason.Quote:

That said, I liked the design of the case. It was really nice for fifteen buckaroos. The two side panels were actually two side panels that you could remove with a screwdriver too, that was really nice I thought.
I also bought two 120mm case fans from them. They too were also flimsy and one of them in now broken. But then again, they were only like three dollars. lol
Moral of the story, don't be a cheap ass unless you don't mind cheap stuff. The next case that I'm going to buy is either going to be Lian Li or the Nzxt Adamas. I'll probably still buy cheap case fans though. lol
How good is that heat pipe design at dissipating the heat? It looks like a traditional heat sink would be more effective at dissipating the heat from the processor.
no heatpipes do work good, the thermalright ultra 120 extreme is the best cooler out there and it has 6 heat pipes. also its the only way it gets the heat from the block to the fins.
With the help of Google, I learned how the heat pipes work. They have a fluid in them that evaporates to move the heat. Then the cooling fins turn the gas back into a liquid. It is the next best thing to water cooling.
Thanks Spawn-Inc, I learned something new.
yo, so theatricality you can say you have a phase change cooler :)
That looks great, but what about air flow in the case?
Two fans located one opposit to another.
They would blow heat at either of them.
Am I right?!
But still cooler looks great
sorry for bad english :(
the both blow in the same direction so there should be no problems in terms on airflow.
Thanks a lot Spawn-Inc :)
np, :). i know i started the thread but after looking it over i don't think i would ever get it because i get the feeling its more looks that cooling. i think the leader in air cooling is still the ThermalRight 120-ultra Extreme.
I'm considering ditching my TT Blue Orb II for the Thermalright 120-ultra Extreme. It says six heat pipes, but I consider that twelve, as some products only have the heat pipes protruding from one side of the block.Quote:

Looks like its reputation is confirmed in the link above. ^_^
@Zephik: That is sweet. It's like my Scythe Katana only not at a stupid angle. How much does that go for?
Too much imo. lol
Around $60-$70, cheapest of course at Newegg.com. I was just there looking at it, seems to have a quality control issue with 15% of their customers. Something about a warped base. I'll wait a few more months or something, maybe they'll have that under wraps by then. T_T
Thats okay though, I'm only running a 2.8 P4 right now. The Blue Orb II is owning this processor, it doesn't even get warm. ^_^
if my case would fit it and i wasn't going to water maybe then i would for sure pic up the ultra Extreme or the new IFX-14
and if i really had mad money i would make a Thermalright CITY!
there was more pictures but i can't find them :(
Holy crap! That thing is nuts. How much is THAT?!?!
Which one?Quote:

I would link you directly to the product page, but they don't have a very nice website in that way. http://www.thermalright.com/product_default.htm <<< Thats the page link for every page in their product section. ><!
oh, um, the "Thermalright CITY" would cost around... a buhgillion dollars. lol Actually, its something around $160 (by my calculations at least). That would be a good setup for a case that had case fans for a side panel. XD
This "Thermalright CITY" is so sweeeet ^^
Maybe I'll get the Thermalright City next time I build a PC. That thing is sweet and I love me some air cooling. I tend to screw stuff up and you can't really short out anything if there's no water, well, you can, but it's harder.
well assuming this all fits on a EVGA 680i board i would grab all these,

for a total of 160, like Zephik said.
