Production Modultra LOBO: Direct die kit gauging interest.

[GucksTV]

I've done a Video about the new SSUPD Meshroom S in "Fossil Gray" it matches the Modultra LOBO by @Alloy Craft in Titanium nearly perfectly in color! It also offers in a rather small formfactor a lot of playground for watercooling. I do demonstrate multiple 280mm radiator options and the RTX 4080 Founders Edition inside the case.

Check it out:

Here are some pictures I've took during the video shoot:

Kind regards

Looks like a fun build, thanks Victor.

Quick note for LOBO peoples, I am thinking about doing a direct die kit that would be compatible with the LOBO for 12th and 13th gen Intel CPU's. Kit would be the Beefcake back plate, direct die contact frame and a direct die cold plate. The kit would fit any of the production LOBOs and cost would be the same as the EKWB version. Please let me know if you would be interested.

So we are talking about a 109,90€ part?
As the direct-die-coldplate would be used from most users with liquidmetal, will the new LOBO coldplate be nickel-plated aswell? It sounds interesting for sure. I am still hoping that the Raptor Lake Refresh for Q3/Q4 of this year will offer even more then the current 12th & 13th Gen CPUs do offer. It also means that a direct-die product, same as Z690/Z790 Boards with LGA 1700, will get one more year of life span. (great for a new released product like yours @Alloy Craft )

Yes, unfortunately price on the kit will be a bit higher since it is a niche product. The direct die kit would include a nickel plated cold plate.

I guess as Direct Die by itself is a niche and as EK will make die Delidding Tool destribution for you ;P haha
it is fair to price it so its profitable for you. But will you consider to sell a "normal" nickel coldplate aswell?

By the way:
I have released a new Video regarding the Modultra LOBO with RAM clearance demo with some DDR5 bare PCB
and a full assembly guide and how I replaced my O-Rings so maybe nice to see how the Block is build together:



Hope you like the video guys! <3

Something that stood out to me as a nice-to-have is that the EK direct-die kit comes with a foam ring to protect the rest of the chip from any stray liquid metal.
Do you think that's something worth including too?

Der8auer presents it in his review of the EK direct-die block:

Our kit would provide a piece of die cut Kapton tape to mask the die from liquid metal spills. This would be more fool proof and offer better overall protection to the chip.

First prototype unit done, will be testing soon.

Sent you an email with a few questions on the direct die!

A bit delayed, but;
@Alloy Craft
If you intend on selling things you manufacture or source for sale, you are required to either follow the Trade Subforum rules or register as a vendor - please PM me with a vendor name and i'll set you up with a Vendor tag so you can post there.

A gentle reminder - selling outside of Buy/Sell/Trade or Vendor subforum is against the rules

Another "case" which would match very well to the LOBO's capabilities of setting up a SFF waterloop,
would for sure be the Corsair 2000D. I have done a quick and dirty hardware fitment test,
unboxing & review (in german) and maybe you are interested as I've got the chance to take my hands on the case rather early:

How’s the progress going? Kind of reached the limit of my 13900KS on a traditional block and thinking I want to every bit of the CPU I can get.

Currently with beta testers (I'm one of them)

Today EKWB started to sell their solution and delidding tool (you need that for the Lobo aswell) so I will be releasing a test aswell as soon as my i9 lost its head!

what’s the feedback doc? Worth it? I must admit I almost bough the DDC distro thing the other day but the $70 USD shipping to aus stopped me dead in me bloody tracks, mate. Is that shipping still accurate? Because that will be permanently preventing me from buying anything in the future.

Hey guys! As my EK Delidding Tool arrives next week and I can't wait to share,
here is a little sneak peek overview of the Direct Die Upgrade Kit Prototype for the Modultra Lobo by @Alloy Craft

 

[ghutz]

@Alloy Craft can you tell us something about direct die? :-)

 

[Alloy Craft]

Unfortunately there is not much to update. Still waiting on the beta testers to post their results. I don't have any of the components to test with so I am relying on them to report back when they are done.

My i9 is finally delided and I will share my results this week!
