will the blackridge cooler be available on sfflab?

[Narwhal]

hi, just wondering if there is plan to help us north americans to get the cooler without having to get it shipped from europe. it beign on sfflab would be great!

 

[Reldey]

Doubt it? Most things on SFFLab are made by Lian-Li from what I understand, and the black ridge is made by a different company (I suppose the duffel is also made elsewhere....) But I wouldn't hold my breath and would just grab it from overclockers.

dont wanna pay 50$ to ship it tho

 

[Damascus]

Pretty sure it's made in europe, so you'll be getting it shipped from them either way

Are you way out on the west coast or something? I placed an order for mine two days ago, and shipping to Ohio was £19.62, or $24.84 at current exchange rates. If that still isn't palatable, I'd try to get some people together for a group order so you can split shipping three or four ways or something.

Edit 12/31/2018: The Black Ridge arrived today. I placed the order for it on the 24th - that was a literal 7 day turnaround with a bunch of holidays intervening. Props to OCUK and DHL, that is absurd

 

[SkyhookJr]

Where did you order the blackridge from?

 

[dondan]

OverclockersUK

 

[SkyhookJr]

Last I looked ocuk had “unavailable” for the blackridge. Was it discontinued?

Know when that might be? Hopefully available in North America?

Any info on this? looking to grab a V2 Black Ridge in NA.

 

[dondan]

As I know SFFLab is in contact with EKL Alpenfön. So maybe it will be also available on SFFLab.

Would be great if someone would stock it soon! OverclockersUK doesn't have it (and they say it's discontinued) and caseking.de won't ship to USA...back to the Noctua I suppose.

 

[dbwd23]

Can anyone confirm that the Black Ridge listed on caseking.de is indeed the revised version?

 

[Aux]

not sure what you can see on caseking.de
What i can see is that the black ridge cooler is due from the 4th April.
I would expect this to be the new one . . . (I am waiting for one)

I contacted caseking.de and asked them if they could confirm that it would be Alpenföhn Black Ridge rev.2 coming in on 04.04.2019 and got a response yesterday;

it will be Rev. 2, that's why there is no stock at the moment, because the manufacturer recalled this cooler, so the fresh stock should be fine now.

Anyone looking to get the Blackridge rev2? I am very interested in seeing some testing done with it in the Dan A4.

Yes, I've preordered this and have some VLP RAM on the way and will do some tests with the 120mm slim fan (don't want to repaste to test with 92mm beforehand). I will compare it to my LP53 with 92mm slim fan on my i7-7700k. Any specific software or tests you would like me to do when it's set up?

 

[Scuph]

Nothing specific just looking for temps to decide on a cooler, also what VLP ram did you get?
