Re: Full Cover blocks

Thanks for the input, LHG! The effect on flow wasn't as severe as I thought, as your approximator shows. However, there is still the incresed heatload, as you have mentioned

Yes, I believe Stew had something along these lines... at least unconfirmed rumours had it. Unfortunately, I don't think anytime in the near future we will see anything come out of Little River. Cathar is all but MIA, with a rare post here and there about the web.

All is interesting... further developments will be interesting to watch. Time for that double cup o' joe!

Well maybe if we ask nicely he may grace us with his presence and share his thoughts with us on the future of GPU cooling, I for one would be very interested to hear his views. So how about it Cathar?
Oh and hows the R1 going?

Re: Full Cover blocks

Where's the review for this?!

Re: Full Cover blocks

No reviews yet, but hoplefully will be soon.

Re: Full Cover blocks

My friend has done some testing and he got some good clocks. But had prolems with crossfire and got poor results, perhaps because of CPU. His post is here

Full polished-mirror finish is an extreme operative and esoteric visual for reviewers and "those easily impressed by bling". If the occasional client wants the "ultimate finish", make it available at an added cost, due to extra "time and effort" used. I being an entrupeneur myself, totally understand the level of desired finish to what's fiscally reasonable. This level of manufacture could be offered as a limited or special edition, possibly offered with other "bling", such as your plating and LED lighting effects, or even a "signiture edition". ;)

Offering higher finished models at an increased price sounds like a great idea. Careful - you might start a new trend.
Eddy - You do very nice work.

Re: Full Cover blocks

Eddy you have a PM.

Very nice blocks BTW. I like the fact that I don't have to "mix metals" and have the option of cooling the vreg's without having to use an aluminum block.

I’m sold! :)
