It’s long been known that Intel run a little hot, so Zalman have gone extreme with a cooling solution that finally does the biz.

Pumping an impressive 25 cubic metres of air per second Zalman are confident that the ‘Big Boy Turbo Mega Fan 2’ will be able to keep any Intel CPU, up to and including the Pentium 4 670 3.8GHz, running cool in even the warmest conditions.

Developed with the help of the British Aerospace wind tunnel engineers, the BBTMF can pump enough air to pop you double glazing out, so it comes with several precautionary notes, mainly involving the suction and loss of small pets whilst in the vicinity of your machine.

Drawing an impressive 1400Watts of power, Zalman include a full instruction booklet on how to daisy chain 5 300W PSU’s together to power the fan, and you get 50 starter cartridges free to get it spinning in the first place. Of course, you’ll need a serious case upgrade too, and we would recommend the CoolerMaster 821 Garage, which comes with a tasteful variety of electronic doors and leaves enough room for even the largest GFX cards in SLI and a Nissan Micra too.

Holy shit.

Jeez, I'd be afraid to turn it on.

Well, yeah:

:lol

FINALLY - your Prescott core is running nice and cool. But uh, your cat might die.

haha

Please tell me this is a joke and doesn't actually exist. How the hell would you install something like this?

 

[COCKLES]

That could probably cause a sub-space rift into another galaxy.

This does actually exist, but its not intended for use in an actual machine. Its like a floor demo model

 

[PS2 KID]

And this folks is what Sony will be using to cool the Playstation 3! :lol

Phoenix, thank goodness you pointed out that it was a demo model. There's no way I could fit that in a case. The real model is big enough.

 

[Discharger]

That is the most ridiculous heatsink/fan EVER.

God, I wonder how much that monstrosity costs? :lol

 

[tedtropy]

Yes, you too can have a CPU that looks like it has A FUCKING HOVERCRAFT ATTACHED TO IT. I like most of Zalman's heatsinks, and even use one on my home machine, but this is beyond absurd...

 

[Gantz]

That's the E3 model. The real one is way smaller.

:lol :lol :lol :lol

I'd have to cut a damn hole in the side of my case!! Thank god for AMD.
