Going straight water cooling

[Daniel ~]

Seeing that a bit with two cores. So I guess I'll be using a second radiator next year when I can make the leap. Have you pushed harder or are you waiting better cooling?

Just wondering if the 3.6 we see in duel will be possible?

Hey keith if you could get some links of what you would suggest to get and PM them to me that would kick ass. I should have my new bank card this week but just in case i just transferred the funds form my pbank to my paypal account so i shoul be cool either way.

The cpu can do abit more and windows is stable at 3.2GHz but folding throws a fit every now and then claiming its overheating. I doubt i'd get much more out of it with this board at least. 400MHz was pretty much the wall with my dual core getting 360MHz fsb out of a quad core is good going with the chipset.

I'll replace my mobo with an X38 in a few months time when they're out. I may change the cpu block at the same time, its a good starter block but i think some of the newer ones are better. (eg Aqua RX Series-R2 UFO CPU Waterblock CL-W0092)

With my radiators now inside a warm room rather than hanging out of the window, and my gpu adding to water temps it does run on the warm side.

As for the watercooling i use is
BigWater 745 - CL-W0076

I also use the ati x1900 water block TMG AT3 CL-W0131
i will do a review of it eventually!! Needless to say overclocked and fully loaded my gpu run at around 40C which is 10C cooler than using the stock cooler idle! The overclock i get exceeds the max the ati tool allows

It's a good cooler as it has a nigh on silent fan which keeps the voltage regulators and the big copper lump cools the ram chips as well.

They do a similar block for the NV 8800, TMG ND4 CL-W0153

Needless to say I and many another X2'er are looking forward to your Quad set up review. Thanks for filing in some of the blanks for me here. Enjoy! ":O}
