I found out one of my friends needed a new motherboard so I sold him mine and am going to replace it with the Rampage, which I got at a pretty good price.
Quick question for everyone. I got the watercooling parts yesterday and set everything up this morning and was wondering how long does it...
Ah ok thanks for clearing that bit up PCTC2 well anyways I ended up going through and ordering all the parts and included some T-Lines. Almost all of the stuff should be here soon and I can't wait to set it up and take some pics.
Ok took everyone's advice and switched out some parts and here is what it looks like so far
CPU Block: Swiftech Apogee GTZ w/ 1366 plate
GPU Block: Koolance VID-NX295 waterblock
Pumps: 2x MCP355 w/ XSPC DDC Clear Top
Radiators: XSPC RX260 Radiator and XSPC RX360 Radiator
Reservoirs: 2x...
Zalman coolers I noticed put out ok performance but its not in the same league as the top of line coolers. I'd say if you could afford it go for a TRUE or Noctua cooler and if your on a budget then go for the S1283.
My budget is pretty big so I'm thinking of getting mostly high end things.
Right now I'm looking at getting these:
CPU Block: Swiftech Apogee GTZ w/ 1366 plate
GPU Block: EK-FC4870 X2 CF High Performance Water Block or Swiftech Caldera 4870X2 Hybrid Cooling System Water-block
Pumps...
How are the temps on the i7??
Yeah I've been looking into running dual loops for each for a while now but wasn't sure if it would be overkill or not.
Right now I've been thinking of setting up a triple radiator for the i7 and a dual radiator for the 4870x2.
Well I've been thinking about watercooling the i7 and 4870x2 for a while now and just have a couple of questions about some things. One thing thats been bugging me are the high temps many people are getting with the i7 even with watercooling and the 4870x2 also puts out a bunch of heat. Now...
Opteron 165 - the best oc I've ever had
Q6600 - its doing pretty good except for a couple hiccups here and there
E6600 - still running after everything I'm throwing at it
Athlon 64 2800+ - worst oc I've ever had and it ran too damn hot
Working fine for me to in Vista x64. One weird thing that did happen after I uninstalled CCC was when I tried to install the driver package it didn't recognize my video card but after downloading it again it worked fine.
