Prolimatech Prepares a Fleet of Monster CPU Coolers
Prolimatech packs the large CPU cooler design ideology with DFI's LANParty branding from DFI. The company started off with the Megahalems cooler that received good reviews. PC Games Hardware sourced pictures and drawings of some really fascinating, yet large CPU coolers in the works by the company, from German retailer Caseking.de, before officially listing the products. To succeed the Megahalems, the company has three new coolers named Genesis, Jericho, and The Mammoth.
Some of the most audacious designs ever imagined, have taken shape, and may be ready to hit the market. The drawings show Jericho to be a medium-to-large cooler with stacked aluminum-fin blocks, and a fan that circulates air. The Mammoth and Genesis have a peculiar staged heat-column design. For The Mammoth, the CPU contact-block gives out numerous heatpipes that convey heat to two staged aluminum fin arrays with dedicated air-flows, both of which are along the plane of the motherboard. The Genesis, on the other hand uses a slightly different design, with an array perpendicular to the plane of the motherboard. There is no word on exactly when these coolers get listed.

But the Genesis seems odd, looks like a lot of disturbed airflow.
The effect is kind of like how poeple think a truck bed isnt an aerodynamic advantange when in fact it really is as it carosels air over it.
Either way they look like they make sense.
Even if it performs bad I want one of those monsters to show off....
And here is cyber druid's build for his son with the board.
They are massive.
Ummm, I guess i wont be able to see half the board anymore. And umm, i better get the build right with something like the Mammoth because once i slap everything together, there wont be going back into that case. . . .
I cant wait to see some reviews on this. Unless someone actually slaps on some l.e.d's, flurolights or flame light - these coolers are going to make for one ugly but superaircooled gaming rig.
Double Delta!
That's why we're seeing all these ass-stupid designs and implementations. The overall sizes and weights of these things are greatly rising, along with their price, but cooling performance isn't increasing along the same metric.
Hopefully someone steps forward and produces the "next best thing"... :/

It's somewhere between Genesis and Jericho.
