[Review] PrimoChill Typhoon III

[BoxGods]

Wow, those faceplates are very nice looking. Are those planned on being available soon? Where from if so? (sorry if I missed this somewhere else)

I like everything I've seen and read so far about the T3 except for having it mounted right in the front of an all black aluminum case (for example). Those plates would definitely make it blend in more with the chassis and break up all the clear void some.

Agreed.

They are being machined within the next 2 weeks I am told. I have no idea how long packaging and shipping and all that will take, but plan on 2 to 4 weeks for inventory to start hitting resellers.

I will save the next poster the time on the price question. No Idea whatsoever but it will not be outrageous.

Awesome, thanks BG!

I hadn't even thought of asking about price until you mentioned it...I was just considering it a necessary upgrade

BG, slightly different question. I saw some posts in the other thread that looked like they related to different fittings on the T3. I know by default it ships with the PC acrylic ghost compression fittings.

Is there any danger in using (or need in some circumstances to use) metal fittings on it instead? Wasn't clear about that. What do most use?

It seems that if you wish to use B P Comp fittings, you needed a bigger o-ring. I thought everyone said B P fatboy barbs worked fine, but there are some Primochill ghost fitting barbs that work too.

edit: Why am I getting these damn bananas fixed

Go to the FAQ and Guidelines board, you'll see a BIG topic.

@BG, I hope the "brushing" on the anoded black one is going to be in the same direction as the cases are. Nothing looks more out of place than a brushed aluminum part that doesn't follow the same direction as the case.

LOL. was going to be me on the price question. I like those alot. When you get some more info, let us know. I am very interested in the black one. As the previous poster said, it will be nice to have it blend in.
