XSPC Edge V2 Pics + Discussion Thread
-
Thx for sharing mate :D
It looks GOOOODDDDD :D
-
So they used the original Edge base. This should make it cheap and hopefully will perform on par with the Edge.

Yeah I mean the other side so I guess I should have said copper fins. Hmm what are the opinions on the base? I was under the impression it would be better to have maximum contact with the IHS.

i was hoping it had the same big circle area for maximum contact with the cpu

oO no photo of a full assembly?
-

hi bex, nice of you to drop in, what do you mean better than v2 in some cases?
-
Awesome! They left out the acrylic for less chance of cracking after time, now it's a metal hold down plate and delrin top, wondeful! I hope that with this stepped base it'll perform even better than the old design...
-
Stepped is better than flat! This should be a good performer on current CPU's. May be an issue with the Nehalem...Only IMO...
-
wound be nice if i could get my hands on a clear normal edge, to see if what difference it is,
as i could go and test then use martins results but it wound be unfair, as i have completely different setup :D but if i did every go to the states in the next few weeks, (i'm not but if someone pays i may) i wound drop in :D

Agreed. The contact surface now may be too small for Nehalem.
-
On the xspc site it is named Delta V3.
-
what sort of performance are we likely to get out of this - doesnt it just look like the design of a normal air cooler, but water running over it (tightly spaced high density fins, not pins?).
just wondering..
-
this block is different design to the delta V3 i will post up the details of what is different soon, it looks the same but it is'bt
-
Very nice!
The biggest issues I saw with the V2 was the acrylic top and flat base, both are fixed in this iteration.
-
Looks really good. So many good blocks out there now to build systems around.

been trying to get more info but this is what i know now, 36 made, 15 sold in the uk i have 1 and now where another 6 of them live.
i don't know what is happing with the other 21, i will send an email over to paul at XSPC to try get more info bout difference and so on :D
-
three reasons :D i'm not buying a NEHA cpu yet nor will i till about this time next year, 2nd reason, new bit of bling and 3rd reason why not :D

Why not, Q6600 in the system..;)
Actually, that base is alot bigger than you think. The V2 is a full 2" diameter, so that step is probably plenty big enough...not sure though. I believe niksub1 determined about a 23mm square was perfect for todays processors.:up:
-
martin how you know i got a Q6600 :D and yes martin the base fits most of the cpu

Better than the DD V2 ;)
And Delta V3 is a totally different block - newer version of the Delta although that's still a work in progress ;)
