Good job. It looks like a lot of emitters on each bar... are the bars going to be enough of a heatsink or am I missing something?

Whoops just realized that Snaz wasn't the OP. sorry about that earlier strange question.
But.. I do have a question. Where did you order the parts from? I'm thinking of doing a build like this soon. |

Have you seen examples of a similar heatsink being effective?
Are you intending on fan cooling it some how? It looks good, but I question the effectiveness.

These LEDs were ordered from aquastyle. Do a search for them.... not sure if I can post an address here.
Other people used these u channels before as heatsink. Some use fan and some didn't. I do have fans ready if needed. I will do a temp test as soon as I get them up and running. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk |
