DFI LanParty CPU Cooler in the Works

alexp999 · Jan 20, 2009

Clunk.org.uk have got hold of some photos of what appears to be a DFI LanParty branded CPU Cooler. The design is something new, featuring 6 heatpipes, effectively acting as 12 and with two independant heatsinks. No details such as pricing or availability accompany the images, but it is believed DFI are in collaboration with Thermalright and as such this could be a joint venture between them. The cooler seems to be held on with a prototype bolt on kit, which one would expect to change before the product reaches retail.

That thing's a monster! I wonder if it's gonna perform as well as the smaller ones like the xigma s1283 or the TRUE.

ShadowFold · Jan 20, 2009

Woo go DFI! They need to branch off into more stuff. I have always had solid boards from them. I would love to see some LanParty cards as well.. That heatsink tho.. Kinda big. And if it doesn't have HDT then it's fail. I do like the mounting tho. Very clever..

slyfox2151 · Jan 20, 2009

OMG thats huge even compaird to my S1284...

I WANT ONE!

Exavier · Jan 20, 2009

so the mounting mechanism is a rubiks cube, in keeping with DFI over-complication?

Mega-Japan · Jan 20, 2009

That thing is HUGE. But looking at the size of recent Radeon cards (as it looks to be the same height as that cooler), I think man, I thought technology was supposed to make things smaller >_>...

thebeephaha · Jan 20, 2009

I thought my Tuniq Tower and now Core Contact Freezer were big but that is just massive.

I really like that split design so that the heat doesn't go through the fins back into the heatpipes. Being separated seems like a good idea.

CrAsHnBuRnXp · Jan 20, 2009

Something tells me that my Scythe Ninja does better.

Jakl · Jan 20, 2009

Ya that thing is HUGE! I want to see the difference between that and the TRUE

Assimilator · Jan 20, 2009

I want to know how much it weighs... and how long it takes for a CPU to collapse under the strain. 0_o

Mistral · Jan 20, 2009

When I first saw the image I was about to burst out laughing, but then I realized the size of the motherboard.

Nice.

+1 on DFI VGA

Did someone notice a strange thing on top of the cooler ?

It looks like the good guys icon in Transformers, I guess they were called the Desectikon or something like that...

DarkEgo · Jan 20, 2009

Is that a DFI micro ATX Core i7 board?

lmao, +1.
Now that I look closer, it definitely looks that way xD

ShadowFold · Jan 20, 2009

That's autobot. I would say it looks more decepticon to be honest.

Polarman · Jan 20, 2009

Maybe they just put a "Lanparty" sticker on it to fool everybody.

i dont agree on that one, dfi is good at making motherboards, why complicate things? Multiple product lines would just take engineers and resources away from their main product

Hmm... nah, not really.

D3mon_Hunt3r · Jan 20, 2009

I believe they've put that there... LOL

Notice its just like the one on the MB cooler.

Oops. :banghead:

WarEagleAU · Jan 20, 2009

They could use this as an incentive to offer more with their boards and charge a slightly higher premium than they currently do.

LittleLizard · Jan 21, 2009

these are good news as it also shows the core i7 matx board. as for the cooler, it has 12 heatpipes (or 6 doubles) which is insane :eek:

Whilhelm · Jan 21, 2009

What the heck is that video card. It looks like a 3870 but it has no crossfire connectors.

That cooler looks ridiculous, it makes me glad that I use water.

Easy Rhino · Jan 21, 2009

it's not the size that matters, it is how you use it!

Basically, thats a passive CPU cooler unit , and it looks , that planed to be and remain passive.

Funny enough , they use a common cooler on the VGA ... looks that they are desperate,
there is no room for passive cooling for the VGA , so they have failed in my eyes.

The complete passive solutions works , for special applications , sound studio and such .

Years back, Zalman had build a huge metal box as passive cooler, looks that no one can avoid
the word "huge" on passive cooling , the law of physics always wins .
