ne1 knw if the iceberq4 or pro will fit on the 8rda northbridge?
The normal iceberg will fit for sure. The aluminum or copper one will. I don't know of any other types of icebergs.
theres the regular and the pro that just came out.. i the pro is a little larger.. theyre both made for gpus but i was just wondering if anyone who bught one knows if either will fit on the 8rda northbridge

I never heard of the pro before, Looks nice. Any word on it's performance?
Hmmmm...a 40mm fan spinning at 5500/6000rpms, no thanks.:eek:
Judging from this pic I'd say that it depends on the CPU heatsink.
That is terrible placement of the ATX power connector IMO!:eek: 6 PCI slots! Sheesh. Sorry bout my little rant.:D
No offense, but the thing appears to "look cool" instead of actually cool. Might as well use an old heatsink you have as a NB cooler. I caught a glimpse of that and thought it wasn't anywhere near worth the money they were thinking of charging. I would just go with the older Iceberq (I have this, nice and solid terrific finish), as it comes with a smaller set of heatsinks that seem to fit perfect on the SB of any mobo. Just my opinion, haven't seen any performance numbers on this thing, but it doesn't look to be worth it to me. :)
edit: Also, 6k RPM with an output of 5.9CFM. Is this a bad joke????
i just ordered the vantec iceberg4 for my radeon 9700. before i mount it in about a week when it comes, i'll check for ya to see if it would fit the nb. k?;)
let us know if it's loud or not also...i'm also interested in getting some better NB cooling on this 8RDA :)Quote:

sure thing, svc said that they processed my order yesterday with priority shipping. i figure to have it by next wednesday hopefully at latest, they usually ship pretty quick.:D on a side note, should i use arctic silver 3 or arctic alumina adhesive between the gpu and iceberq4? It has pushpins, so i figure adhesive isn't needed unless a perfect insulating conpound is needed, so i think as3 should be fine, right? thanks guys!:p
Arctic alumina would be safer, because it isn't conductive but if your are safe then as3 is fine.
i posted a mini review of this in video cards.:D
