Zalman water cooling
Going through some Japanese computer sites this morning and came across this:

I was about to bemoan the fact that all the good stuff comes out in Korea first, but then I saw this Zalman ZM-WB1 CPU Waterblock #301 $49.95, but only for P4's Athlon64's

Excellent connectors, terrible base finish. Maybe its just due to year-long corrosion in the bag of a sales rep. I sure hope that is a shipping weight - 2lbs!

Oh..... no... what is Zalman doing -_-?!
I've yet to see one of those coolers doing EFFECTIVE cooling. It just doesn't have effective area for heat dissipation nor enough airflow to cool it (and quiet at same time).
I guess there are some markets for people wanting a bit quieter solution than SLK-900 or CNPS-7000 Cu with high wattage CPU. But if you are going H2O... man... that is half of solution. (I would recommend exos over those any time... and custom setup instead of EXOS anytime)
