Hi

I was just surfing the web and i found a new block that i had not seen before, a 8800 gts and 8800 gtx full cover block by zalman.

Here are some pictures.

I think it is going to be priced similarly to the EK block, special tech have it here at £54.99 the same price as the EK ones, Couldnt find any reviews at the minute, just thought it was a nice alternative to the EK version.

Any oen got one?

Looks like a good block for low-flow systems - nice looking for sure

Wouldn't be too sure on restriction on high-flow systems though

EDIT: Good Point Hamster

Amen.

Its a dam good looking block imo. They need too make a copper base and sorted.

It will be interestng to see how it perfoms against an ek block when they test it.

Becuase it does look v nice.

its suppose to be copper then coated so maybe a quick lap?

if there cheap enough it could be worth while

Be nice to see some results cos it looks nice. If it were cheaper, perhaps some1 could buy it and mold-mod a pure copper one now that`d be impressive. Any1 with access to metalshop stuff in college/school ? lol

Urm, maybe mill here, but not mold. Ive never used the mill function on ma bigass machine personally. Could be fun, but its another thing i cant afford . £55 for the block then id have too get a copper slab custom cut...

Edit: Thinking about it i might give it a go atch. As long as i can muster up the funds. /starts looking for things too sell.

It is a pretty nice block, it would look amazing.

HOLD ON A MINUTE PEOPLE. This thing is ALUMINUM and the whole damn thing is ALUMINUM and it only has anodization which Marci of thermochill said comes off very easily.
