Production Modultra LOBO: Direct die kit gauging interest.

[carlouws]

Things are moving along slowly. Material is on the way, after that machining starts. Still need to design packaging and about 100 other things to do. Hope to have product ready to ship in late Jan-early Feb. If you are interested, I am taking pre orders at this time. Pre orders include free shipping in the USA.

Yeah, I would definitely be interested in a pre-order.

I would also be interested.

I would very much be interested in this. You can PM me on reddit at this username.

So I'm working on a way to sweeten the pre order deal. I'm thinking about doing the LOBO metal pump and heatsink combo for $180 shipped in the USA. Deal will include all hardware and thermal interface pad. Colors would be carbon grey and titanium. Sockets would be LGA 115x-1200-1700 or AMD AM4. I will post some more info soon, still working out some of the details.

Colors would be carbon grey and titanium.

Was hoping for Midnight (matte vs. the achromatic eggshell finish of Blackout) to be an option...

Sockets would be LGA 115x-1200-1700 or AMD AM4.

If it's an either-or choice, what if we want both?

Sign me up for that metal pump/heatsink deal in carbon grey. This project looks to be very, very well-executed!

Hot hot hot, just stumbled onto this thread and I am loving what you are doing. I'm currently using an EK-AIO but think I might want to move to something more custom. This is a gorgeous piece of hardware.

Would you ship to the UK?

Thankyou for your testing - the more info we get, the better this little unit gets. Out of curiosity, what connectors were you using, and what is that 3080 Ti? That's downright sexy.

Those are Monsoon Fittings. Rather rare these days! Indeed a tidy looking loop.

GucksTV is correct, They are Monsoon free center compression fittings. Angled fittings are all Ek classics. The gpu is a founders 3080ti with an Ekwb special edition block.

Awesome design, great work!
I can't afford to request a preorder now, but hopefully I can swing it once you get to production

If there isn't any problem with it being raw and not cerakoted I would prefer the raw look along with a lower price.

This looks awesome! If it fits the Z690I AORUS, you have a new buyer!

Brass is corrosion resistant, but it is not 100% inert in tap water. You can run it uncoated but over a period of time it will turn redish and exhibit micro pitting as the zinc leaches into the water. We are talking over a period of years. If you use a corrosion inhibitor it should be a moot point. Zinc leaching out of the brass is a slow process and a extremely slow process with a proper coolant. With a proper coolant, an uncoated block could be used indefinitely but will tarnish.

interesting. I guess for the best of both worlds is to have the inside coated but the exterior not? Either way I'll definitely want to pick one of these up but don't want it to get messed up overtime.

I would be interested in this, will be watching for any updates.

While I understand that it's not going to happen in the first wave, I'd dearly love to see an expanded TR4 socket version of this. I've already registered my interest for the current unit, and can't wait to get my hands on it (well actually I can wait - I'd rather it was done well than fast.)

How do I purchase one ?

Not available for purchase yet. Has to be manufactured first
