I don't know, now they get to get some $$$ from you for a Rev 2 plate while still having room to grow to release a Rev 3 once the Rev 2 market is played out. Two chances to get $$$ from one idea. Sucks for us though.

I don't understand all this discussion, I mean it's not like they are not forcing you to buy a new plate.

Of course they are :nuts:

Continually upgrading h/ware is an illness/addiction that Swiftech are taking advantage of :rofl:

alpha0ne: note taken.. time to design a motherboard where you can upgrade every SMD capacitor.. and I will even package a free soldering kit (49.95 shipping and handing of course ;) )

Thats a great idea, then XS can open a capacitor section, and ppl can troll each other about what the best caps are... its like nerd heaven! :D

Hehe.... just installed my 'rev.1' Storm :p:
I must say, very good temps
36c max @ 1 hour of Toast, 1.53v @ 3010mhz Opteron 146
Triple NexXxoS Xtreme rad, Swiftech MCP655 pump and like I said, the Storm.
Also included in the loop is a Maze4 @ X800XT PE (vmodded to 1.52v default is ~1.42v)

So far I'm quite impressed with the block :)
But I'm not gonna order those plates ;)

Well I've got the storm rev 1 for christmas and I'm going to mount it the next saturday or something like that. :P

Does any shop in EU carry the Storm rev. 2?

Try Ebay ;)
