I PM'ed Thrilla since he was selling some a while back but he hasn't been on in a while so I just wanted to check with everyone else. Looking for a small quantity, around 15-25 and preferebly under 4in long. Preferebly filled with a liquid other than water with a much lower evaporation point. Diameter not a major issue, but not too fat, flat on one end is a plus but not that important.

you can flatten them yourself and inserting the ends into a pre-drilled plate of metal then brazing/soldering them in place (so they are as close to the core/ihs as possible) will get what you need in that respect I believe.

Bring back the game. http://reclaimyourgame.com/. EA are mean.
Only thing is I have very limited tools. I was going to drill the block out slowly until the pipes could be pushed through with very mild force then apply a very small bit of glue or other sealing agent to prevent leaks since I don't have tools to braze, although I could use a soldering iron. The pipes would go all the way through the block and would be as flush as possible with the bottom to have as direct as possible path for the heat. Still alot of details to work out.
Dunno what exactly you are planning to build, but maybe heatlanes will also work.
They are much easier to work with.

Wow, those look awsome! Those could be placed edge on in the water flow for much smoother flow! The challenge would be how to cut the block to insert them and the limited contact surface for direct-die contact using the design I had in mind. Have you used them? Do they sell them in small quantity?Originally Posted by Fr3ak
I have already used them for my 0 fan pc a while ago.
the 30mm*200mm ones are about 19euro. They dont transfer as much heat as copper heatpipes with a diameter >= 4mm, but they are much easier to work with.
I am thinking about using them for a new waterblock design.
Not sure if it is worth it yet.

They seem popular in Germany, lots of reviews and forum posts. Very expensive though! As thin as they are I could easily use 30-40, but it would cost a fortune!
I think I will stick to copper heatpipes.
