  1. Lovin' it. The price is a bit steep though. But understandable for all the features it has. I'll got one in due time

  3. As Mr.Scott said previously, this discussion pops up every X amount of time. It's the same, every time. Why do you want to change said rules? Those guys that are elite have pumped in thousands of hours and money to get where they are. If you think it's unfair, step up your game, buy a container, get some LN2 and start benching subzero dude Global points are there for a reason, and yes, you need exotic cooling to score world records/global firstplaces. You can't compete with a Fiat Panda in Formula One no? Fair? You compete with the guys in YOUR cooling category, some OC-esports even hve separate brackets for subzero and ambient. Even in some competitions Elites are prohibited to even compete or ES are not allowed. So they often times draw from the same silicon lottery as the rest of the overclockers. The only thing that I would like to see changed is the "apprentice" tag, which sounds a bit, I don't know, not fitting for its cooling category. But that's about it imho.
  4. Very awesome piece of machinery Bartx
  5. needs points removal, period. atleast till fixed!
  6. I see where you are coming from, but that would also count for the CPU backplate cutout itself, so that should accommodate all, achieved by making the whole as wide as it needs to be, so all would fit, same for the cutout of the cable, make it wide so it fits whether your backplate is far up down or sideways. If you know what I mean. (Is there a proper OC board that has its socket placement centimeters from where others hve it? Afaik there isn't, but I like to be educated when I'm wrong. The usecase doesn't matter for lots of boards, you'd only need to accomplish compatibility with widely used XOC boards, Apex' (M)OCF, REXes SOCs etc, most of us don't care if it fits on some bonkers RGB z270 120 euro board made for gamers I would assume) In the case of making a cutout for the wire of a socket heater, one would need to use a socket heater, the gap would be too large without it and it would be the same as running without insulation at all. So that's something to think about aswel. Remember, this ain't criticizing, thinking out loud, and trying to help. Because the idea itself is awesome. I'd love to dump my crooked homecut sheet of insulation. Here in the Netherlands we hve this saying, a proper start is half the work
  7. Yeah i understand, but when we are paying ''alot'' for insulation, instead of some random sheet of armaflex. id like it to be as close to, set and forget. If we would need to cut it ourself it nulifies the whole purpose of a waterjet cut insulation sheet no?
