Well I finally got off my ass and picked up my new HTPC (home theater PC) from Sharkacorp today and decided to make it as silent as possible. To my pleasant surprise Sharka has a huge stock of AlphaCool so who was I to say no?

The Goods!

Overall I am very happy with the system and can't wait to get the bleeding process over so I can see how it runs. I was also very impressed with the quality of the AlphaCool packaging, paperwork, and ease of installation. Nothing bad can be said for the freaking sweet Zalman HTPC case.

THANK YOU TO SHARKACORP FOR THE KILLER CASE AND SWEET DEAL ON ALPHACOOL GOODNESS!
 
woah, that's nice.

R1ck, always wondered, what does sharka look like? just a little store?
 
Very nice looking build. Couldn't help notice the date on the pixs, tho: 01/11/2004.

:D
 
R1ck, do you really need 2 posts of the same thing ..one here and one in HTPC? Why not just one in HTPC?:p

Well, yes! The watercooling forum will enjoy the new AlphaCool goods and the HTPC forum will marvel at the incredible HTPC case. This thing is a work of art both looks wise and construction wise. Not one rivet on this case, all high quality.

SHINY DOES NOT IMPLY FLAT.

Maybe you missed the point but the reflection off the base makes a perfect image with no distortion and how nice the quality is on this block. Any distortion would be caused by a non-flat surface.

Imagine a commercial building complex with sharka housed in a 50 x 200 foot suite. They have a front office area with a lobby, demo room, and two offices and then the warehouse with all the goods. People would be shocked by the amount of inventory Sharka has and how little AC/AlphaCool is to their overall business.
