I have given up on the idea of a group buy due to limited interest. If you want one please place your orders directly from overclockers-arena.com Sorry it didn't work out.

Eric

I just got an e-mail from overclockers-arena (site in Singapore) saying that they are now able to sell the 60 to 80mm fan adapter that they have been selling in their Hedgehog combo by itself. You can see it here. As you can see it is a very well made all aluminum product that is cast insted of cut out and folded. They are going to sell it for $55 Singapore (approx. $31.50 US) and will have it available in about a week. They said that they might be willing to sell it to a local (i.e. States side) distributor if there was enough interest. So anyone interested in getting one say so in this thread or in a PM to me and I will see if I can work out a group buy discount or something. Let me know.

Eric

edit: corrected the price....oops

delray- I don't think that this one would work for a PEP....for that you need the Jurassic cooler. Unfortunatly I don't remember what the site where you can buy them is. Maybe someone else remembers.

Eric,
Correct me if I'm wrong---if it'll fit the Alpha Pal, then it'll fit the Pep as well, as they have the same heads for any 60MM fans---still it's worth it to me to give it a shot---tried the folding aluminum one and it broke off in my hands so a cast one seems better to me--keep me on the list for delivery---thanks!

If we are looking at the same thread then I have built one like that for around $5 in parts and about 2 hours of planning and labor. I (and others I assume) are looking for something a little more durable and clean looking. I'm not trying to knock the guy selling the $8 one obviously those have their place but not in my case. Right now I am experimenting with building one out of plexiglass but if I can't make that and make it well I will definitly be picking one of these up. It's looking like no matter what the number that overclockers-arena.com gives me for a group buy, we aren't going to meet it. So anyone interested in getting one can order them from here. I have been told that they will be available by themselves within a week so e-mail them if you're interested. So as of now I am giving up on the possibility of a group buy and will assume that you all will get them on your own.

8 bux man...that's like 3 bux for the 2 hours of labor/planning...i think that's a pretty good deal....ive seen some not close to finsihed pics.and they look pretty good...i dunno bout plexiglass..it chips and breaks kinda easy.
