Stumbled across a little home-grown business, neat product, simple, affordable.

No affiliation - just throwing it out there, something the membership may or may not find useful - and of course I dig the fact it's capitalism in it's rawest form, a one man shop.

Cheers,
Russ

    It is in fact a one man shop. Two if you want to include the cat's wife setting up the website. I have 11 sets of these risers and they are of top notch quality. Fast service. Professional quality and great eye candy. They will provide a better airflow with hot running equipment.

    I was pleased with all of my orders / no affiliation. Wish I was, this guy's onto something.:D

    I think I've seen those on ebay quite a bit as well. When I search for Carver, it usually brings up one of these ads.

    How do they attach? Screw in, adhesive?!?

    Daboyz, he's correct. I have been privy to the company costs and if anything, Rick needs to raise his prices. Not offer discounts.

    BTW, don't bother PM'n me for info., my mouth is like Fort Knox. ;)

    I've read through the site and I can see how this product would help with heat by providing air flow but there is nothing said about dampening vibrations or isolating components or decoupling components.

    I'm a big fan of keeping the air flow going but I am also a big believer in a product such as this being a multi-tasker. If it has no damping properties or decoupling properties I can think of atleast three products that do both the heightening and damping and/or decoupling.
