they're easy to bend, trust me, but you could use some springs around them for bending. iirc that's how Revv did it; you'd need to detach all the heatpipes from the base.Originally Posted by SaFrOuT

I just grabbed them and bent. Dont do it fast and you'll be fine.

thanks for the tips
what about how to remove the pipes from the copper base ? using heat gun ?

Heatgun lol....
I used a large butane torch and it was barely enough.
A propane torch might get you farther but I ended up using an Acetylene powered one to resolder properly.

sorry for my bad english
can you please show me a picture of what u used to remove the pipes from the base ?
also should it be aimed @ the pipes or on the base ?

How bout some passive temps? I'm sure that thing can take a beating even without fans.

One of these basically. http://www.bernzomatic.com/bernzomat...rnzoProd100026
edit
aim at the base.

is the heatpipe holder soldered to them also ? i am trying to remove it now with force but i can't
edit:
well from the pictures seems that it is indeed soldered
so tomorrow i will try to find a suitable thing to use like the torch you used
is using extra heat to remove the soldering can damage the pipes ???

weren't you concerned about bursting the pipes???

Yes there are 4 tiny screws plus solder.
EvilBellyLint - Not really, not much liquid in a heatpipe usually.

I have a new-in-the-box GeminII that I got free after rebate
from Newegg just sitting here, and have been thinking of
modding it... hmm...

Why not make both of them so that they stand up, like the VGA idea. Then they would essentially be like other tower coolers like the TRUE. Then you could mount a 120cfm fan to each one and blow through out the rear exhaust. I think it would be more efficient than 2 different direction fans.

I thought about it but the real problem is that when your heatsink gets powerful enough you have a hard time producing enough heat without causing electromigration inside the CPU... if you want to keep the CPU for a meaningful amount of time that is

can you please explain more ????I thought about it but the real problem is that when your heatsink gets powerful enough you have a hard time producing enough heat without causing electromigration inside the CPU... if you want to keep the CPU for a meaningful amount of time that is
also any info about the type of the material used in soldering the bigtyphoon's pipes to the base ?

Basically hes saying that the heatsink is so powerful, he needs to figure out a away to heat the thing up, with out cranking the CPU to 18 volts vCore
Fold for XS!
You know you want to
It's better than watercooling?
what about a PA radiator-like heatsink connected with heatpipes instead of tubes with water?It's better than watercooling?
Sometimes a good slap in the face is all you need

I can fix this problem with a hardware mod....Hipro5

Water has the same problem once you get a good enough setup. Getting the heat from the core to the heatsink/waterblock is also an issue.

think that thing can cool as much as an IFX-14? id like to get a tec under that thing for some serious cooling.
