Inquirer report from ComDex:

Looks like the Zalman 7000 is getting a bigger brother (with 120 mm fan). Question is going to be, how easy the thing will fit NOW...

Oooh great news, I especially like the external fanless PS

Yes, that's a fanless PSU which makes sense! On my review list!

For those with sharp attention to detail: notice that the PSU's "foot" is the same as the Reserator's.

Speaking of which, combining these two products may give users the first real fanless, high-wattage bolt-on cooling ever.

Just as long as they don't go crazy with the pricing....

Anandtech has some good ComDex coverage, complete with lots of pics. Maybe they have some pics of the Zalman stuff.

Zalman aren't afraid of thinking outside the box

An NVIDIA 6800 Ultra / ATI X800 Platinum without the necessary local nuclear reactor would be nice...

Who says there's no pictures of it? Found one on Google as shown below...

That thing must be heavy if its 120 mm and all copper O_O !

The design looks pretty much exactly like the CNPS 7000

You sure that's a picture of the 7700 and not just the 7000?

Yep... You can also check the pictures from TheTechReport and HardwareZoom... Looks like they just upsized the CNPS7000 to a 120mm fan and slapped on a CNPS7700 label.

Ohh, how I would like to redo my ducting on that one

Gimme, Gimme, Gimme

Though doubtful, it'd be grand news if the Zalman GFX-cooler can chill an NVIDIA 6800 Ultra / ATI 800XT Platinum ...

Note the 7700 cooler doesn't seem to support Skt-A mounting - at least for now...

That's a trend you're likely to see continued. Socket A is approaching the end of the road. It will soldier on as the "Value Socket" much like Socket 370 did, but the hottest processors for Socket A are probably out right now.

now, that might not fit my lian-li v1000 case... I guess I will be stuck with thermal right XP-120 most likely :p But the weight!... wonder how many people are going to be willing to put that copper block in stock frame.
