Is that the low profile version? My friend Jinu has that block on his 6800gt. It is really heavy and well made! He has the big sucker. 2 of these for sli would be perfect.

Well is it as good as it looks?? If it just about the looks i think that "sticker" on the top looks a bit Kmart :)Quote:

Are you seriuos, the Croc Hunter is into overclocking? :D
Send a e-mail and have him join XS, he's a funny guy.

That is no K-mart jobbie, it's one of the best GPU coolers around.Quote:

And it also can fit both Nvidia and ATI cards.
The new Maze 4 block looks nice thought, is it out yet?

My bad, i though that northbridges didnt really need watercooling...just a good aircooler. Thats what all the watercooling gurus have said... That its not worth the added flow resistance and added temperatures to the water. But if it gets to 60°C...then damn i guess it could use some watercooling
i'm trans am's friend with the fusion, it's a great block. brass = no corrosion. comes in HL and SL versions, SL is slim, HL is fat. HL allows you to mount ramsinks, SL blocks 2 ram sinks where the barbs come out. from the looks of things as they sit in my rig, 2 HL's will probably fit in an sli rig as it takes up just about 2 card slots. if a 2 slot ultra can fit into an sli rig, then the fusion should fit. i'd definitely mount a fan over the cards with a zalman fan bracket to cool the memory, with or without ramsinks.
i don't think watercooling the nf3 chipset is worth it as it hardly gets warm, however, just from playing around with trans am's chaintech board, the nf4 chipset gets really hot compared to the nf3. i think cooling it would definitely help. i'm not sure what kind of nb blocks can fit underneath a mounted gfx card, i'm thinking maybe a fusion SL as its barbs aren't vertical, but horizontal to the plane of the motherboard.

you can make a current maze4 fit 6800's if you drill holes a couple holes in it as it is a couple mm's off from fitting correctly.
They do have one.Quote:

So the UT boards don't come with anything? Just a motherboard in a box? Or is the bundle not as great (cable count wise)?Quote:

Anyone getting a new PS with 24pin to use on this board? problems with the 20 to 24 converter?
any ocz PSU is 24pin ready. :)Quote:

420, 520, 600w and the new modable ones and on some boards you don't have to have a 24pin molex even though there are 24pin connecter on the board you can only use 20 of the 24.
Dose not anyone have reviews about lanparty nf4 yet???
i'm waiting, i think a couple guys got the board yesterday, so some preliminary stuff i'm hoping will be up tomorrow.
Check out this radio Interview, They talked about NF3 939 AGP boardQuote:

well now that that's over with, when are the reasonably priced boards coming out?
middle of next month i bet they will be around 200$.
