Something interesting:
Oil is wicking along the inside of the display port cable for one of my monitors. It's wicking 6ft from the inside of the case to the display port input on the monitor itself. Interestingly, the other two monitors cables, which are DVI, are not experiencing this...
My brother is currently using a crappy old laptop to watch downloaded TV shows and such on his TV via S-video out. He is a student and as such does not have a lot of money, so he's still rocking an old CRT TV (even if he had the money, I doubt he'd spend it on an HDTV). Thus, the device would...
Here's some pics that I forgot I took. I snapped them before I installed the Indigo Extreme though, so the GTS250 is still there.
Slow shutter without the nasty flash using a tripod is really the way to capture the glow.
The temps I quoted are after full load for several hours. The oil temp is stabilized. flow rate from here: http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=270J/s+*1cm^3+/.9g+*+1/(1.55K)+*+(K*g)/(1.966+J)+*.951gal/hr+/1cm^3/s+
I got a second data point for calculating the pump flow rate.
Properties of oil:
Specific gravity: 0.9 g/cm^3
Heat capacity: 1.966 J/(K*g)
Power draw of computer idle: 270 W = J/s
deltaT of oil In/Out: 1.55C
Power draw under load : 480W
deltaT of oil In/Out: 2.60C
(270 J)/s * (cm^3)/(.9 g) *...
Dammit I knew I was missing something.
Great news! Got the Indigo Extreme installed and made a few modifications to the GPUs. Temps are excellent now! Woohoo, I can actually use my computer for its intended purpose.
Following the very specific directions for the indigo extreme, I...
Thanks! It's been a frustrating journey.
My Indigo extreme kit came in this week. Been busy with senior level enginering courses, so I haven't had the chance to mess with it until today.
The problem is that the indigo extreme needs to be applied when the motherboard is flat. Seeing as...
Good news folk, I patched the leak in the top corner yesterday. I cleaned up the plexiglass with some paint thinner, let it dry, then applied silicone. I'm at uni now, but the plan is to refill the tank when I get home today
Also, I made little clips out of aluminum to hold my silicone caps for...
Cheers. I found a leak! (Not sure if it's the only one or not, so I didn't say 'the' leak). Up at the very top of a corner, the joint between the two sheets of acrylic is not 100% tight. It looks like the top 1.5" isn't quite sealed. I drained the tank to about 2/3 and I'm waiting for the oil to...
