ZXMODS ONLINE STORE PROFILE
After "BlueMax" was created, ZXMods was dreamed up to share modding techniques
and offer products in an effort to promote the Personal Computer experience
to a more satisfying level. Each modding project will be documented and
offered to the public in the "Projects" section of this site. Modding
supplies will be offered in conjunction with the projects. Oh, and in
time, the world will come to know I am an AMD kind o' guy! ZXMod's flagship
product is the Custom laser jet cut fan grills. ZXMod's has design service
available for a reasonable cost. Stay tuned as new designs are created.
ZXMod's second custom product is the Cold Cathode Kits with color matching
heatshrinks. These particular kits improve upon existing market cold cathode
kits with breathability in critical areas and compactness. ZXMod's third
custom product is the unique CoolRadVidSinks which are highly effective
for cooling the video ram chips at overclocked speeds. While being a highly
effective product, these look absolutely so cool when seen through a plexiglass
window.
PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
Now seeing that you are reader of Tweaknews.net, I would have to say
that you have at least 1-2 case fans in your system right now. With that
assumption, most of the elite computer users of today are using multiple
fans in their systems and because of that reason, computers of today have
been getting noisier and noisier. One way you could control the noise
is to throttle down your fans manually using a rheobus like the one I
reviewed HERE. But what
if I could introduce you to a product that would make you fan speed and
system temperature control easier by having a small device control the
speed of you case fans by monitoring your computer case temperature and
adjusting the fans accordingly. Well, with the "PYRAMID I" mounted
and installed properly, your prayers have been answered. Let's take a
quick tour of what this product will bring to your workstation...
PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS
Here is a little snippet from www.cobalt3.com
who manufacture this little beauty...
"Due to its cool design and lighting feature, the Pyramid I is one
of our popular models for lightly modified computer cases. With all the
abilities and features of the L model, this pyramid extends it with an
additional visual alarm feature and using and adapter on the standard
3 pin connection (connects to your motherboard) it can also connect to
4 pin fans. So silence your existing fans and give your case some cool
lighting on the inside!"
PRODUCT COMPOSITION
With the purchase of this little device you will get the following:
You will receive everything to control about 2- 3 pin molex connector
case fans, the sensor itself and a setup manual.
