HUGE P4 sink

[ryanpgroovy]

What do you all think of this beta

http://www.ocztechnology.com/images/products/heatsinks/b/giganto.jpg

Its 78mm tall X 63mm x 75mm

Let me know your thoughts

[sandman]

Too tall, none of the heat will make it to the top of the fin.

They should try to focus the air more towards the core.

how ya gonna fit a fan ??

personally i love the igloo4300 retension mechanism.. you can install it with one hand

this in full copper with more fins and a 50% taller would be nice :D

there a fan shroud in the works this is an early beta

BTW I dont think a fan is needed at most speeds

[Hell-Fire]

I dont think its "to tall" honestly. But you will need some mighty cfm for it.

Would help the "size" issue if the fins were thinner.

[ryanpgroovy]

the fins are as thin as we can make them

a side mounted fan is a posibility

[gokickrocks]

looks ok...if it was a NB cooler instead...

[ryanpgroovy]

lol

2 pound heatsinks dont typicaly make good nb coolers so we had to do soemthing dif for the NB
:D

That NB one looks like one of those Zalman things. Will it take a fan?

[Ragnarok]

it does look a bit too tall, and as sandman pointed out, not much of the heat will travel up that far... but if u using a sidemounted fan then that's a bit different..

umm the base looks a bit too thin??

Heres my northbridge cooler im making out of a slk-900u.

[saaya]

lol, looks like you used 2 slks ^^

[NyCUndaGrounD]

U know how thick the base of the slk is. Its a pain in the ass to cut off a chunk of it. I cut off the right side with a dremel alone.
