...and in other news, several motherboard manufacturers just soiled their pants!

Nice effort Foxconn...tho i'm gonna put my neck out and say that an LN2 NB might just be a tad overkill

I saw the X48 one the other day, but that F1 motherboard is just as nice, that's how onboard watercooling should be done, run it through the heatpipes. Really would like to see how that performs with no water in.

 

[PV5150]

ROFLMAO totally agreed.

 

[Ham]

We getting one for review?

 

[PV5150]

I have been asking

 

[JN]

I have been asking

Me too

 

[Bungral]

Me three...

Ok I haven't but yeah be good if you do get one. That first one does look pretty good.

 

[Rastalovich]

This demonstrates something similar I was trying to describe about tidy watercooling.

 

[prosser13]

Surely that's going to hurt flow quite a bit though?

 

[Raging]

looks like theres a pelt under that quad xfire boards nb cooler?(see 2 wires)

i dont want to think how much either of these boards will cost either

but the inclusion of nearly all type of cooling on the board is kinda cool.

 

[Aqua-Pc's]

yes but if you use it with low flow components like Aqua-Computer stuff it will be fine, fugly but fine

 

[Yeungster]

I prefer the first mobo (blackops)?? Looks like a more extreme version of the mars?

 

[Luigi]

yup, it certainly looks like a peltier. my maximus just had a heart atack

 

[FarFarAway]

yes but if you use it with low flow components like Aqua-Computer stuff it will be fine, fugly but fine

I think AC stuff has it's place. Look at project Soylent Green for instance
