agree'd.

Alex what do you have hiding in your pocket?

If thats the case, i think we need to catch him in a dark alley and run his pockets

All you'll find is an empty wallet, some keys, a cell phone, a USB flash drive... and patience

alex isnt a hardware whore like most of us on this forum.

He is a infomation whore tho. :P

Hence why he tends to relay very accurate info most of the time.

You lie. You must at least have your driver's license in there

Seems surprising that it would be a lower pressure drop given the tighter pin matrix.

58x58mm hmm big enough for a 437W TEC hehe.

my thoughts exactly. The base looks nice and thick too, although swiftech have proved that may not be as important as we used to think.

Got my block yesterday. Packaging is VERY nice. Once I test it I will do a much more in depth review of it.

Surely you must take pictures before you use it!

[Think]

Who got a hold of one of these and where?

[LinusTech]

These are only available to a few reviewers right now. We currently don't have an ETA from Enzotech.

Looking forward to it. Hopefully, your results will be better than that graph they put up on the site. Those numbers are very depressing.

Check out their BMR-C1. It's a Swiftech look a like set of ram sinks they make also.

ROFL... look again. The BMR-C1 is NOT the same as the Swiftech MC14s.

Since you seem to be one sided here bashing enzotech at the water blocks and now the bga ramsinks without having the knowledge first of the products you speak of I feel I should enlighten you before you spread your false opinions presented as facts to anyone else;

Weight comparison of BMR-C1 vs MC14
7g is the actual weight of the BMR-C1 without the tape, with the "3M tape" it weights 8g.
BMR-C1 has the same surface area as the MC14, even though the BMR-C1 are 25 fins but it has the same surface area like the MC14.
Here's a calculation showing the surface area of the total surface area of the fins
MC14 0.8x0.8x3.14x16=32.15360
BMR-C1 0.64x0.64x3.14x25=32.15360

Thermal Conductivity Comparison of BMR-C1 vs MC14
The tape that comes with MC14 has a little bit higher thermal conductivity, but it also far less sticky than the "3M 8815" on the BMR-C1. Here are some reviews from user who purchased
MC14 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16835108071.

Swiftech has rated the MC14 to handle up to 5 watts of generated heat per memory module, by so far all the VGA ram on the market does not even reach this high temperature.
Raminks do not have to dissipate high heat load as the CPU/GPU coolers must do, so in reality it is more like how well the ramsinks can stay on the ram than how much heat it can dissipate.

Appearance Comparison of BMR-C1 vs MC14
According to Mr. Chen at Enzotechnology in an email interview, the pin fin design on the MC14 or BMR-C1 were originally designed by the Enzotech engineers and designed and were manufactured in the same plant as Enzotech's products. BMR-C1 is actually the revised and improved version of the MC14, and we even take a further step to CNC all 4 sides of the ramsink to give it a cleaner look and by doing that of course that's some additional cost to manufacture our BMR-C1s not to mention this is 100% forged copper.
(See visual comparison below)

We have choose the 3M tape for our BMR-C1 due to its "sitckiness" there are some trade off on the thermal conductivity, but mean while it prevent the problem of falling off from the chips all the time as many users have reported with the included thermal tape with the MC14s.

With the following links you will be able to see the difference on the side of the MC14 and our BMR-C1 after the CNC results.

So not only is the BMR-C1 a completely different product, it is also the improved successor if you will of the MC14.

Copy EK fitting, Copy Fuzion interior design, Copy Copy. Who care? all i care is performances...

haha see above. Personally I think enzotech gains from redesigning and improving other branded products on the market and its a great strategy as long as in the end they meet to the requirement of "all I care is performance..."

These are only available to a few reviewers right now. We currently don't have an ETA from Enzotech.

Dang was hoping NCIX would have them before anyone else...

Any further info regarding availability? In the process of a watercooling build, and this is probably the best possible candidate for CPU block as Apogee GTX is just too expensive with copper top while D-Tek block is just lacking the look.

email enzotechnology and ask them who will carry the blocks

[Think]

Well Sept 7th is here and gone. Not sure whats going on with that company at all. I called them several times and emailed them because I'll be at a show and wanted to used there product as well but there going to miss the boat on this.

[koei]

Well, here's what I got.

Hi,

Currently it is still not available yet, we are still revising the the waterblock, we are expecting to release it around end of September in the USA. Please let us know where you at and we can let you know the release date in your area if you are not within the US.

Best regards,
Enzotech Staff

lets just wait til NIK finishes his review and see the results

[Think]

Interesting that you received a response. As far as we are concerned, the lack of response to our emails even after calling them to indicate our correspondance is a sure indication of lack of professionalism and a big negative for us.

We won't be dealing with them.

I am not testing what they sent... I was informed the block is being revised... so this one I won't bother with.

[dr4gon]

it does remind me of the fuzion except a much shinier polished version

What?
Not even of the record?

You must have super glued your hands to the chair not to have runned just a tiny little test

Do you work for Malico, Hectic?
