Thermalright Heatpipe Cooling Cases!

[FragTek]

These look bad azzz!!! I'm most interested in the Tower case (HSC-100). I bet they will cost a blooooody fortune though.

Im sorry but that's SO pointless.

And i hope too god the things running down the sides between the fins ain't pipes. When will they learn heat pipes don't work well horizontal.

i wonder how long it would take to clean the dust out of that sh1t

now that looks nice would be great for a silent pc any idea when they are relesed

 

[FragTek]

No clue when they're coming out. I really want to know a price on these suckers though.

I like it, I'll see what I can find out from Thermalright

these look more efficient and more capable than the zalman heatpipe-cooled case, but for most of us it seems that the cost is definately going to be an issue.

id wager that this is going to cost more than the dell 3007wfp-hc, direct from dell, just like that fancy keyboard with all the keys being LCD screens costing $2500.

its also too small.

these are due in to the UK August / September this year, sadly no pricing has been indicated yet.

After seeing the internal pix of these cases, they look even better to me! The entire case side is the heatsink on these beasts with multiple heatpipes going down to a good size solid nickel plated copper block. Looks like it will be wicked good at heat transfer.

Think of placing a box fan on high speed right next to your case? EXTREME COOLING! Probably will be great for benching as the airflow through the case with a fan that big would be amazing. This really is a better idea than most people give it credit for mefinks.

I'm with Frag on this one, I have images of the inside etc... and it looks awesome.

Will post up images once I've resized them

Gotta agree that this is a sexy looking case. Airflow is probably pretty astounding. If it does end up being high priced though, I can't see a 5*C drop in ambient temperate would be a big enough deal for me tbh

EDIT: Holy

, I didn't realize that that huge heat sink on the side attached to the cpu. I can't imagine that's compatible, with ALL motherboards, but if there is any passive heatsink that's effective, I'm going to guess that's the one, that would definitely bring you almost ambient temps with your proccy.

my imput would be closer to 'gaudy as hell.' that huge heatsink is obnoxious too. Completely worthless once it gets to a certain size, and it wouldn't work if the cpu was located in a different place on the motherboard.

Will those heatpipes restrict the size of the PCIe card on certain mobo's?

Not sure on the design how is the heatsink fixed to the CPU and how do you open the side of the case without removing the HS from the CPU?

Looks almost as if you need a certain mobo as those heatpipes are surely fixed?

what the hell?!? lol

looks crazy

 

[FragTek]

It's gonna pwn, all u h8rs wait and see

 

[AydST]

and as is the case (get it) I bet thats not the finished product, more a mock up for the show it was taken too.
