    Well I'm an airhead,,
    But the NB is an issue




    I solved that with a thin fan..






    What I'd like is a nice coolpipe heatsink to fit the side of the NB

    Thanks, fittings and tubing are actually for high pressured air systems... I agree, seems beautiful...

    Not easy to use an air cooling system on BlackOps, partly because of NB; it's snarling to aircooling systems like a watchdog...

    thanks for sharing gang!
    nice fittings indeed, are they plug n play or how do you screw the hoses tight?

    i added your infos to the cooling complatibility thread here:
    http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=194190

    what watercooling system are you using btw?
    Id like to add it to the list as well, looks like swiftech? or Dtek from germany?

    Yeah this board is seriously limited with big aircoolers, I don't recommend the Thermaltake Ultra120A to anyone with this board

    it's Silverstone Tundra's WB (screwed/backplated)... actually i use EK Supreme-Acetal with LGA 775 montage kit and backplate...


    btw, i have some other air cooling kits for testing in a few days...

    Edit: BlackOps is very strong under LN2...

    Should Thermaltake be Thermalright Ultra 120 / Extreme?
