jedimasterben Posted November 15, 2015 Author Share Posted November 15, 2015 I dig it. It's like the big brother to my build.Yours is one of the 418 As-is? I also didn't realize that the center of the fixture has the cutout for vent holes. Will really muck up my symmetry Link to comment
Benny314 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Cool heat sink. I also didn't realize that the center of the fixture has the cutout for vent holes. Will really muck up my symmetry Could you not get some high grade 4mm aluminium plate the right size for you cluster and fix it over the vent with the cluster on it. Doubt you'd loose to much thermal efficiency doing this. Link to comment

Will really muck up my symmetry No mine was a custom job, basically a 24" long 418 or if you prefer, a 424. I wanted to easily cover 40". Link to comment

Any contact like that will directly impact the heat transfer away from the LED, which will be more important since theyre clustered so tightly. Still not sure what I will do but will figure something out. Link to comment

More = better and it solves your OCD issues lol (I'd have the same issue with it not being symmetrical). Link to comment

That also increases cost not only for LEDs but also drivers and driver boards, as I'd need new, lower amperage LDD and more boards to be able to run everything lol Link to comment

Just don't tell the wife lol............... I'm sure you'll figure something else out. Link to comment

jedimasterben Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 Symmetry>cost Well, I just bought a Dell U3415W to go along with my shiny new 980ti, so cost is an issue at the moment lol Link to comment
Horerczy Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 No idea what that means my desktop is decrepit. Still has Vista and a 250W PSU Link to comment

jedimasterben Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 Asus PB278Q FTW! I already have a Dell U2711. Why would I just want a step down in quality? Link to comment

jedimasterben Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 I meant PB287Q.I have a Mini-ITX system now, so can only fit one 980ti, so 4k is really out of the question. Link to comment

Horerczy Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 I would but none of them are compatible with my fw build. Still you can market then as a no guesswork setup. Link to comment
O2Surplus Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 That must mean ... New led tech from someone and Ben gets to play lewt mastah guinea pig. LOL- That's what I suspect..... otherwise the heat sink would be up for grabs too. Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 LOL- That's what I suspect..... otherwise the heat sink would be up for grabs too. Actually, I don't even have the heatsink at all yet. Link to comment
