Cuplex XT block questions

Wednesday, March 30th 2005, 2:07pm

Does anyone know when there might be a matching chipset block available that would have the same look as the Cuplex XT? If not is there any color matching tops for the chipset coolers that would be appropriate for my ASUS A8N-SLI board?

I ordered my Cuplex XT block (#21506) with the Blue Ice top and I also ordered an extra clear plexiglass top (#21511) as well 8) Do you guys see any advantage to getting the copper top (#21510) as well from a performance standpoint?

I think the copper top won't affect the cooling performance.

And if it does, it wouldn't be measureable... ;)

Thanks guys for the timely replies :) IMHO, the copper top looks ugly, but if I could eek out a few degrees of temperature drops I'd do it and not put a window in the side of the case ;)

I gather mum is the word on the matching color tops for a chipset cooler?

Hopefully soon! However, I remember that someone here once said that two XT style blocks would cause too much restriction in the system. So what I really want is some regular chipset tops in the matchingBlue Ice color 8)

So what's the possibility of a Twinplex Rev. 1.2 with the Blue Ice top instead of the clear plexiglas it has now?

If you guys don't want to make such an animal please tell me where I can get some material in that color and I can make my own and use your block and hardware. 8)

I'm sure there is lots of places that sell blue plexiglas. The problem is finding the manufacturer that has the same tint that matches the XT block. ;)

Will the whole Silver XT limited edition block be made out of silver or just part of it?

Nurse, nobody here in this forum knows anything about it. You are the first who is talking about a silver edition...
So, who should answer your question? ;)

(OK, I read it at [H] first... *g*)
