Zalman fix the Pentium 4 heat problem ..... with a cooler the size of a head

This is by far the biggest air-cooler i have ever seen and in true zalman tradition it looks like a flower <even more so than previous coolers>

Pumping an impressive 25 cubic metres of air per second Zalman are confident that the ‘Big Boy Turbo Mega Fan 2’ will be able to keep any Intel CPU, up to and including the Pentium 4 670 3.8GHz, running cool in even the warmest conditions.

Drawing an impressive 1400Watts of power, Zalman include a full instruction booklet on how to daisy chain 5 300W PSU’s together to power the fan

Honestly is this some sort of joke???

If that is real, Zalman have got to be stupid to think that anbody would actually buy it!!

I mean, you'd need a desktop case (because there is no way you could have that leaning on its side in a tower case), You'd need to have the top off the case, and you'd need to find somewhere to put all of those PSU's - and find a way to turn them all on at the same time as ur rig!

that is a big heap of crap, zalman need to stick at what they are good at...crappy cooler that are quiet.

Zalmon coolers aren't that bad...some are pretty good and all are quiet.

EDIT: But thats a POS

I have no doubt that it would be a good cooler, i mean look at the size of it!! but its like a fricking desk fan!

 

[bloodthirst]

wouldnt something of that size put a massive amount of strain on the motherboard? like physically

Hell yes. I doubt you'd be able to mount it in a tower case (where the mobo is laying on its side). In a desktop case it should be ok tho...

yeah i could just amagine is breaking the motherboard to bits

ROFL, yep its gotta be a hoax. If it isn't you can have your desktop computer and a desktop fan to cool ya down....that's bloody rediculous!!!!

its prob a hoax but its a nice 1 if it is; this was @ computex tho <apparently>

i can use it to cool my cats when they are on heat? well wtf so big , we are not trying to cool a nuclear reactor!!

No but you are trying to cool a P4!! :flames:

 

[limqareb]

? it soesnt need so much, the fan will make more heat 1400w!! amd if anything make more heat i assume , different architecture

 

[Joe]

No but you are trying to cool a P4!! :flames:

yea so this will cool ur nuke reactor no problem

EDIT: the fan uses 1.4 Kwatts of power to actually spin one of the main reasons i fink this is B/S imagine puttin a 1.4 KW fan in a PC thats the same as a Desk fan

the actual image is it real or has someone " edited " it to massive proportions

Here's another pic of the mahoosive Zalmon cooler:



Thanks to AnandTech

 

[Dav0s]

it doesnt look as big in that picture. maybe it isnt a hoax

Thanks to AnandTech

in the 1st pic it was 5-6x as tall as a pack of marlboro

thanks kempez i fout there was some photoshopery occuring <or a large Promo Model>

it does look the dogs knackers tho ot the other version may b for industrial use who knows
