I would love to be making more pots for you guys but there are no resources available to use at the moment. I am trying to think of ways to get them done but it wont be easy. I know some of you want pots so if you would like to register your interest then post in this thread

Once people give me an idea of how many I can start to look at ways of getting them done.

I really want to make more of all the pots but it's going to be a struggle and I hope I can work something out soon. So far the performance has been very good from everything we have made so I would love to get more out there for people to use

If someone is looking to buy pots in a month or two or three and wants something friggin good, sign yourselves up for these

The Phantom is a VERY good "slim" pot with very nice response even with hot cards and the Marksman is just ridiculous.

Just want to add my name to the list. As long as you're still trying to get these made then I can wait (Marksman).

Also, did you see the PM I sent you about a GPU mounting bracket?

I'd really like to have both a Marksman and a Phantom, but I'm not sure how soon I would be able to get the funding for them.

Kenny, how would you compare the Phanton to a Tek Fat (yes I know it's a slim/chubby, but humor me).

Just as an aside, I had a Marksman in my possession for events for a few months and man do I miss that thing... Hobiecat has it now and I'm jealous.

The temperature control was nothing short of incredible and the wide opening makes it a dream for both LN2 and dry ice usage. I have a Kingpin Cooling F1 Extreme Edition and as soon as the Marksman becomes available again, I'll be selling the F1EE to help fund one. Best pot I've used yet.

The Marksman shouldn't really change much in price, if at all. They retailed at $295 but actually cost a fair bit more to make. They've been pretty heavily subsidized by OCN, the pots were never meant to be a money spinner or buisness, we just wanted to make the best pots we could for the members here at a somewhat reasonable price. I'm not sure if people know that...

The Chubbies will probably end up around 220 230ish. Scoot will need to get a full run in before we know that but they won't be mind bogglingly expensive.

Cranked non-ref GTX470/480/570/680/Titan will overload it, I can't see there being much difference in lower-end cards/ lesser heatloads

Physically can't get enough LN2 into a Phantom to hold a mentally hot card at mental MHz.

Is this price just due to a low amount not being made? I mean KPC pots are only $230-$250 so another $50-$70 is quite a bit.

I don't suppose the gpu pots will fit 4 way sli?

Low quantity runs have something to do with it ( If there were a lot of preorders prices would drop ) as well as materials and tooling but machine time is the real killer. Scoot might be able to delve a bit deeper but put it this way... when der8auer is putting out GPU pots for 369 EUR.... he's not joking, that's just what it costs. ( Not having a jab, the Raptor 3 is just a good example )

And yes they will fit in 4way quite nicely. She's just a little on the chunky side

Hobiecat might actually be doing some 4-way soon, I'm not sure what he's planning but he's hording 4 of the prototypes

I'm sure he'll post pics of them strapped up.

Its sitting on my table and im shipping it to him tomorrow (works been nuts lately and I haven't had time) but tomorrow it ships!

Other than that for my first time on LN2 and using the MM that thing is amazing I want my own, I have had funds set aside for this thing for months now. I want a V2!

Not to mention, the purity of the copper on the marksman is quite a bit higher than the KPC pot I have.

That's the plan! I've got a few 4-way boards sitting here, now I just need to figure out a way to find 4 identical cards

Plus there's that other thing I still need to look into...
