Here are a few pics of some early prototype test mules I had been working with. I thought you guys might like to see how the STASIS IceStorm cooling solution mounts up and what the fundamental design is like. Bear in mind that the final revision units are slightly larger and have a markedly larger copper heatspreader. The base is machined to within 1/1000th of an inch and the heatpsreader is recessed to the exact depth needed to accomodate the height difference between the RAM and the GPU, and bonded to the aluminum component using Arctic Silver thermal epoxy. Note the contact patches were marked with a small dab of Arctic Silver 5. The fan is a 60mm that pushes close to 20CFM, while being quieter than most stock solutions, at only 27db. I'll put some new pictures up when I get a chance.
