66-fan case mod exemplifies overkill

We've seen some pretty questionable case mods involving additional fans, but this one will likely hold top honors until something even more extravagant comes around. The "Super Cooler" straps a grand total of 66 fans around the tower, which probably doesn't do a whole lot of good when all's said and done. Truth be told, we've all ideas that this thing was created more so for people to gawk at than to actually enable users to run uber-overclocked CPUs and graphics cards without the use of water, but whatever the case, it's an interesting (if not cacophonic) take on cooling. Hit the read link for lots more images, and keep those fingers a safe distance away, k?

this thread has some of the best series of responses ive seen on a blog in a while! gj guys!

[tavisjohn Posted Nov 25th 2007 12:29PM]

I have seen this before. I believe this was constructed at a small computer shop because they had a huge bin full of old casefans that were not selling.

If it's "Tech Wizard", shouldn't it be "TECHwizardz.com"?

I wonder if that will work on the xbox 360...mmmm

[bigwhitebear18 Posted Nov 25th 2007 5:04PM]

first: how loud is it when it gets turned on
second: to get it even cooler they should use Vantech's Tornado TD8038H case fans. they'd move way more air and it would sound like a jet was taking off beside you.

Thanks!!

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 25th 2007 1:23PM]

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 25th 2007 1:35PM]

Next time use a jet engine

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 25th 2007 1:40PM]

yea i remember that from at least 2 years ago from some case mode forum. Some one should find the original source and post a link.

I need a winter jacket

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 25th 2007 1:52PM]

How is this here? Is it a slow news day? This is old, unless someone copied it...

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 25th 2007 2:28PM]

MacBook Pro, you're cleared for power-on; Caution wake-turbulence "Super Cooler"

What would be cool is if they molded the fans together to make blades on a bigger fan, so that each fan blade would have a ton of mini-fans in it.

I like how Gizmodo also posted an article about some not-so-current news about an hour after you guys did. I suppose it's only fair to give the 12 year olds somewhere to comment on this mod as well.

[BigD145 Posted Nov 25th 2007 2:37PM]

Isn't this a 10 year old case?

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 25th 2007 3:28PM]

Oh yeah! It does.

[tiuk Posted Nov 25th 2007 3:38PM]

Yikes, just don't put that stack of important papers next to it.

[Nismode Posted Nov 25th 2007 4:35PM]

This'll really blow away the disbelievers who said you could never have too much cooling.

*Open and shut case*

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 25th 2007 4:28PM]

HAHAHAHAHA!!! My god. This is ridiculous man!!! The thing looks as if it is ready to take off and if u so happen to drop it, it most probably would hover on the ground instead of crashing! Hahahaha! Plus, it just looks plain ugly!

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 25th 2007 4:53PM]

Does it blend? No but it will spin. And I can't believe noone's pulled a "Fanboy" joke yet.

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 25th 2007 5:05PM]

I think I like the ice cube computer better.

[daniel80 Posted Nov 25th 2007 6:21PM]

The shit has hit the case.

[deloreanz Posted Nov 25th 2007 7:25PM]

Once again Engadget, awesome job posting news from 3 years ago. I see the can crusher story was not an isolated incident.

[JustinSaneV2 Posted Nov 25th 2007 7:30PM]

A little overboard...

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 25th 2007 8:32PM]

This is several years old now.

[daniel80 Posted Nov 25th 2007 8:36PM]

Will it self blend?

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 25th 2007 8:57PM]

That's a lot of work for a blow job.

He may not have friends -- but at least he has fans.

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 26th 2007 1:07AM]

66 fans eh? he couldnt have added 3 more fans just for kicks? ;)

[Kizorblade Posted Nov 26th 2007 6:22AM]

All you people who are asking if it blends... Hell yes, but IT blends the blender

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 26th 2007 9:16AM]
