Check out this heatpipe

Look here.

Now that is one powerful heatpipe cooler! Imagine a system like an Athlon shuttle SV24 with something like that in it positioned right in front of a case vent!

Shuttle's got one: the SS40G is a small form factor Athlon box using that heatpipe HSF, supporting DDR266 and with the other goodies that the SV24 had for Celeron/PIII/Cyrix: USB, Firewire, 5.1 sound, NIC -- and the usual complaints (onboard video, no AGP).

But unless you're doing gaming, a very nice box. Good looking, too.

Haven't seen it for sale yet, but I'd expect it to be <$300.

That is a sweet pipe. Just think of the possibilities.

Ive seen the SV24 at NewEgg for <$300 without a CPU. I actually have an old Celery here that is very overclockable to 533 altho its not an FCPG form. It was PPGA. For some reason tho I keep thinking that it might work? would my PPGA work on a supposed FCPGA? they are still the same number of pins

Soon gaming computers are going to be coming standered with NOS and 5 speed transmissions.

Awesome heatsink, though I'd be constantly worrying that it would break the socket.
