anthony Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 yeh, but then you d have a lot of liquids leaking ;P Heat pipes are made out of two pies like htis: | || | | || | when the liquid is heated on the bottom, it becomes a gas and raises to the top once there, heat is disipated turning it back into liquid and it falls bck down. and continue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravy Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 they actually work slightly better if you lay your pc on its side where the heatpipes are perpendicular to the ground, they use gravity to do what they do partially, makes sense Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sYstEmATiC Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 (edited) Weight: 692g It's lighter than my 773g Zalman 7000A-Cu!!! 430158[/snapback] BUT, if u extend that 692 grams about 6 inches from the contact point....it is going to put more strain on it than if it was up close. tie a 5 pound weight to the end of a 10ft poll, then try to lift it up at the other end, but yet if you just pick up the 50 pound weight, its not that hard.

Nerm Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 This is a case of where bigger is not better lol. I think that thing is way too big. I don't care how good it cools, it just isn't worth the space it would take up and the trouble it would cause. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
