with the cost of shipping, i think mounting this thing cost as much as the heatsink, but i think i'm going to move the mounting hardware to a megahalems.

damn straight.

edit: this DOES NOT mean i dont support the idea of a new mounting method, so all you other people dont spend $80 getting a xiggy to blow air to the back of your AMD rigs. :]

haha.. wow.. 50 people would go for them huh? with the material that i already have on hand from previous mods or what not.. i can make around.. 40 mounts..

i will also be making some brass ones too. it'll only decrease the cost of labor/mount so thats good. i should be able to make a bit over 50 mounts.

this gives the option for those that would want brass ones to go for brass and those that need a cheaper option the aluminum.

so lets go for around 45-50 mounts. it'll be first come first serve.

please don't PM me now as i do NOT have them on hand right now..

i'll post again with the FS thread.

If I'll get brass or aluminum all depends on the price differences. Brass is a sick metal though
