Those are hot.

Almost makes me wish I needed a set.

For the sinks, just use hand soap, it rubs right off under hot water and won't hurt the finish. :up:

The real question is, what time are these suckers getting in...
Aren't most/all parcel services on holiday today? Even Petra's might be?

That's what I was wondering too. Petra's told me to expect them early this week (most likely today) and discussion here says today as well. Seems everyone forgot about the holiday today.

Yep, I totally forgot about it as well.

99% positive they should be delivered to Petra's tomorrow.

Yeah, I was planning to pick up my heatsinks today... completely forgot about Presidents day.

Now I've got work everyday until next Monday... D'oh. Hopefully I'll make time to get them before week's end. Cant wait!

No, they're here right now... sitting next to me. I just haven't gotten to them yet (we've been working all weekend to catch up from last week).

Kevin: Even though we are closed today, you can still come by to pick up a set.

We're still waiting for the first portion of our EK shipment to arrive--hopefully it'll be here by the end of the week.

Nice. Have an ETA as to when they'll be put up on the site? Will they be front page again?

Are they going to be a separate / unique listing from the orignal ones?

Yeah I did some checking and UPS and FedEx still run, only USPS is closed.

Sorry I didn't split them out for you first, not my style but I really just wanted to get them to you ASAP.

Didn't turn out too bad, eh?

Ahh, Wish i read Alex's post sooner then 6pm... I'd be fitting them right now.

Tomorrow... :yepp:

I'll be getting a set as well, despite that my vr's are on the topside it does look as thought I should be able to simply mount the vr heatsink on the topside of the card without any issues.

Thank god its only 2 screws and not 4.

Cant wait to see em. Picks will be posted once they're in my hands.

Thanks for the heads up! Just ordered a silver, anodized set + some MX2 to replace the Ceramique I was using.

Just ordered a Black set with some MX-2 to seal the deal. Too bad I won't be free to pick it all up until thursday/friday =[
