World's Largest CPU Fan

Dark Ride · Dec 31, 2005

Developed with the help of the British Aerospace wind tunnel engineers, the "Big Boy Turbo Mega Fan 2" aka CNPS9500 LED, from Zalman is one badass CPU cooler. Drawing a massive 1400W of power, it comes with instructions on how to daisychain five 300W power supplies to feed it and apparently requires "starter cartridges" to get it spinning in the first place, though I can't find confirmation of these specs on the product page.

Whatever the case, this is one serious cooler for y'all crackhead overclockers and Intel purchasers out there.

Well, it's not ment to retail, but can you imagine this on top of a CPU ?

so is it good at cooling for overclockers or is there no point? I mean it's still gonna be ambient temperature at all times I assume, so it's just as good at overclocking as any other one right?

With a cooling system that size you will need a support mechinsum for the cooling system and for the mainboard then you can worry about the case.
