Seen this silent beast? Wow.

Enclosures and acoustic damping to help quiet them.

That's the most extreme computer I've ever seen. It's an entirely passively cooled high-end gaming rig.

Here's a less extreme version of the same concept:

They seem to use mCubed's HFX heatpipes, identical to the ones used in the HFX mini and classic.

EDIT: OMG. I've always thought it'd be really cool if someone added a huge heatsink to the side of a TJ08... and someone actually did! Check this out! http://www.ichbinleise.de/Luefterlose-P ... 0e9bfef992

I think they still look ok with the heatsinks on the case.

Maybe pics will give someone on here some modding ideas?

I've been trying to work out if there's a "warranty void" sticker stopping you opening the right hand case door. :)

If you look at the pics it needs thermal paste on the heatpipe bases to transfer heat out to the side panel.

Having to re-apply thermal paste every time you open the case could be tricky.

If someone had it open a few times without redoing the paste the graphics card wouldn't have a fully functioning heatsink after a while. :(

Don't even think about swapping memory out either. :shock:
