just a question but do the 5 fans justify the price jump from 25 to 100 dollars? ive suddenly re-thought about buying one.

Where'd you get $100 from? The fanned out model is $80. And even at $100 the price would be justified FYI. I take it you don't work 6 x 12 hour days each week and have enough spare time to sit around screwing fans on to these brackets. At $80 they are coming unassembled.

[einCe]

you changed your price, i remember it being 100 when you posted it in the sale thread here

Yes and I decided I didn't want to take the time to assemble all of them so I knocked off $20 and will leave the assembly up the consumer. www.fragtek.com

Ok I just discovered a wee bit of a problem that I completely missed when I designed this bracket. I used a 6800GT as the reference card for clearances at the back of the card and then completely forgot to test with G70's before moving on to the next step. So, the end result is that how it sits only 6 series cards can fit with this bracket AS IT SITS.

Now if it's not too late I'm having my laser cutting company call off this batch (more than likely too late, they probably shipped out today... bleh) and wait for my revised drawing. If it is too late I can hand modify the brackets with a dremel to allow the fitment of G70's (and as I look at it I don't think the 512mb GTX's will fit at all as the card extends past the bottom most mounting hole that the bracket uses *sigh*). Sorry guys, need to do a bit more tweaking but it will be quick to a get a new piece out from the shop. Can't believe I had this damn brain fart.

Attached is a pic of the clearance w/ a 6800GT, the added length on the G70 will run in to the bracket with the current design... Will keep you all updated!

UPDATE:

I'm in luck! I was able to swap out the v4 bugged version with the newly revised v5 version which should fit 7 series cards (512mb GTX's still may not fit, trying to confirm this right now). This will put back the brackets a few days but at least I didn't get stuck with flawed brackets, w00t!

what about a big aircooler does it fit?

what about a big aircooler does it fit?

99% of cpu aircooling solutions will not work with the Expert bracket.

Do you have option such as this part? because i think cooling the Rams is more important. and beside if you only have this part for sale, people can use air cooling too.

Not currently but I could definately look in to making a RAM cooling bracket w/o the mosfets! Let me have a looksy and see what I can do, because that's a pretty good idea, people with large heatsinks could orient them over the mosfets and keep them cool with the cpu hsf's fan.

Woahh. Can you make it for normal DFI mobo first? People will definitly looking forward to buy it.

If you want to allow people to use their air cooling heatsink such as TT big typhoon, Xp-120, 90 etc. Maybe you should move the fans back a bit. (not as much as the picture shown below, but enough for people to use their xp-120, tt big typhoon etc)

[FragTek]

I could move it back, the only problem then is that it will only cool the RAM populated in the left most slots, and not the slots closest to the socket, I don't know how much I like that idea.

[Bail_w]

but if you dont move it back a bit, big air cooler such as Big Typhoon and Xp-120 wont fit

Besides most of the people use the yellow slots more than the orange

[FragTek]

I'll definately try and make it as universal as possible!

[Bail_w]

Thanks, Let us know asap

Any info on when the SLI DR model will be avail?

I should be getting the prototype some time next week.

if 99% of the aircoolers don't fit it won't be a success period. I like the idea though, hope you find a way for the stuff not to interfere too much.

Rofl how do you figure? if you're aircooling you more than likely have a decent flow of air around your ram and / or mosfets already (and more than likely aren't aren't running your cpu at 1.7+vcore). If you're on air or phase you don't have that added benefit of a decent sized fan in that area and are more than likely running more volts through your hardware as well.

P.S. I've already sold more than I can count on two hands :p
