Oky that takes piss just a little. hahaha
 
Did anyone already come up with a case that is also a heatsink? If not, there is a niche to fill!

Holy crap, that is a monster. Looks like it could be a good CPU cooler if it wasn't taking up 2 pci slots and possibly all of the memory. Cant believe it weighs 763 grams either.
 
There are a few problems arise with this system.

1) Hight of ram modules.

2) GPU slot's taken up.

3) NB and SB not getting cooled.

4) You wont be able to fit side case fans.

5) your going to look like a complete nob ....
 
plus... the total surface area of the 'cage' heat-dissipators is less than some cheapo 'tower' air-coolers, that have fan mounting abilities. how would this monstrousity get cooled?

go figure!!! lmfao

you missed the point.it's obviously not for high end performance PCs, it's a completely silent design for low to mid end hardware (up to 100W tdp)...

i got one of those sets for a review and it works perfectly fine....

Quote - (looks like the VRM circuits got overheated after all).

Like it said above if you have hot sections of a main board this will freak it out and probably kill it.

You cannot run a totally passive system in today's market place. Why because chips, MB's, GPU's all need to be cooled 1 way or another with "Flowing air" .. that review all so proves this as the hex core had to be lowered as the VRMs overheated. How eve any one running a hex core on this would be stupid.

If you going to purchase it you need to be pretty dammed specific what you are going to use it for ....

i personally have it installed on an athlon 2 for a few weeks now and everything works perfectly fine after hours and hours of prime95...
