    Yep, I made that the same time I made the first prototype set of ramsinks.


    Here's some results with a VF900 from a user that purchased a set on another forum:

    Very nice work man, love the ramsinks.

    The core block is nice, but having the barbs stick out instead of up (if that makes sense) kind of kills it for me.

    Regardless, excellent craftsmanship... wish I had that time/talent.

    what thermal compound are you guys using on the RAM and MOSFETs? i've heard some people say Arctic Ceramique is conductive and not to use it. What's a good substitute, or is generally any thermal grease that comes with a heatsink just fine?

    Silicon based, as long as it isn't capacitive?

    E.g. no liquidmetalpro or AS5 : P
    E7200 @ 3.4 ; 7870 GHz 2 GB
    Intel's atom is a terrible chip.

    Have you thought about trimming the GPU block base? It seems a bit thick.

    Very quality work, damn I wish I had access to tools like that..

    Well, guess what, I received mine this afternoon and they are up and running. I took off the EnzoTech BMR-C1 Pure Forged Copper Ramsinks and put the ramsinks on EVGA 8800GT SSC. My results:
    room temp 65-68F
    Idle w/ EnzoTech BMR-C1 Pure Forged Copper Ramsinks -30-32c
    Load -35/39c

    Idle w/ iandh ramsinks and Arctic Cooling MX-2 -31c
    load-33-37c wow! I am very happy with these. Not only good performance, but great looking also!
    Nice job iandh!
    You should probably patent your design!

    Wow that's great, they even beat out forged copper. It's probably all that surface area in between the sinks, and they probably cool the mem chips under the tubing better too all connected..

    Nice job!!
