Im getting a nice custom SS soon.

Just woundered why the hell anybody would want to use the Asetek S775 socket kit for a custom unit ?

I dident see any benifits in using it, or?

Thx in advance for you time and energi :)

Well I can tell you why I did :)

I did it because I wanted to be sure that the head was compatible with future asetek sockets.

And I also wanted to use the same mount and insulation that came with the lightspeed, so it was a simply slide off and slide on :)

So I guess it was for ease of upgrade and compatibility?

(I think some peeps also do it if the custom SS is using the asetek CC and want to keep the heater elements)

People use those types of mounts in all kinds of custom systems, even cascades.

I think the main reason is because they work well and look good :). And you can get them quite cheap now too.

Isent it only Chilly1 and coolerexprees that sell them ?

The asetek kit is about 100£ including heaters.

Yea chilly1 sells them and they are just about identical as far as I know, apart from a damn site cheaper :D.

I think some computer shops also sell the vapochill ones as spairs but they are quite expensive.

Because it is well tested, and it works...
Small odds of getting condensation all over the place, very good odds of getting perfect mount first time, even when not using an IHS..

Agreed, it's a tested and prooven design and it simply works. I get perfect contact everytime with my chilly1 enclosure, so much better than my ghetto-fabbed enclosures of the past.

The one Chilly1 sells comes from China. It is the same enclosure Cooler Express uses. It is a nice enclosure but lacks on the insulation and bolts that come with it. It has no heater.
The Vapo enclosure is a much more complete unit with excellent insulation and bolts and heater.

They are most definitely not the same. :)

Hopefully heaters will be with Chilly1s soon though, provided the manufacture does them correctly this time. The halves in the Chilly1 are also a pour foam that are around 6lb density and should insulate better. They are also made as separate halves and so don't fit together as nicely as the Vapo's do.

The first reversions that Asetek had produced had some issues also.
on the heaters where the 2 threads form the heater joins, there is a read knob. and because of that knob was a bit larger then the old S939 the foam in the evap enclosure was pused abour 1-2 mm more out than the other half.

Thus leaving ALOT of air to condensate and incereasing the problems with getting a god mounting.

Asetek charges around 135 Euro per socket kit.
maybe I should keep my spear seet and mod it to fit on my LD SS :)

maybe ???

But they sell stuff that is not even tested.
Everything they make that regards a PCB is always released prior to testing.

This was the case with the CHillControll, I fellt that and the so called USB support did not excist, it only worked 1/10 when you passed 255 fsb :mad:

The update they made for it 1½ year later worked fine, Just send you CHillControll to us, when they recived it for updating they try and take money for it! WFT???????

Because of the first reversion of S775 I lost 1 motherboard and almost killed a cpu, it had rust and dark spots from condation!

The pumps with ressuar and PCB controll panel failed BIG TIME, they just stooped working and the fault rate WAS ENORMUS.

And the thing they call support is so bad I would be ashamed if it was my company!!!!

But fell free to call them LEET :p

You cant blame Asetek for your condensation problems..:confused: you buy a Phase cooler and dont go buy the book your looking for trouble and you can exspect to blow your motherboard....:rofl:

i have currently got 3 phase coolers hooked up i dont ever see any problem with condensation..but it did take me a few years to work out a fine art on 100% airtightness....:yepp:

Aseteks support can be bad but if go to there site and ask for help on the Vapochill Forum MasterG :clap: will push it through and you will have response asap./few days..:clap: you could do the same instead of asking around here for info that dosnt relate to it....

Usb Trouble ??? Maybe you should lern how to fix a few things.Usb troubles over hi Fsb ? How is that Aseteks fault ???:rolleyes:

Pcb untested get with the times do you think the motherboard your using now was tested ??..i think Asus 2 week turn around is easier than testing :shrug:

Pcb Failing Yer i have had troubles like that as well Atm i have a CC on its way over and when i recieve it i was asked to send my dud 1 back ..Pretty good service i thought :up:

You should really look at the reasons of your troubles before you Flame a company..

If it was kayle or silencer or Gray would you be saying on this forums there units are :banana::banana::banana::banana: the condensation killed my Motherboard ?? :)

i doubt you would even have the courage to ...:shakes:

It works great and has awsome compatibility, it might not look sexy but i imagine most people use that area of their budget to up their phase performance.

They forgot tomake room for the heater, thus the insulation inside the Socket kit was 2mm higher on 1 side then the other! = Air and space for condensation.

What are you talking about ?
what is it I should ask asetek about that Im askin here?


Usb Trouble ??? Maybe you should lern how to fix a few things.Usb troubles over hi Fsb ? How is that Aseteks fault ???:rolleyes:

Once more you show how littel you know ;) This has a common problemwith S478 and the 8XX chipsets...
Going past a certin fsb meant that Aseteks controller lost the connection, everything else worked. but not the CC.
Also that the USB connection dident work was a very wide spread and genneral problem.

Im not sure you are so skilled as you claim, apparently you dont know what you are talking about or you have problems understanding my english.

And BTW, I have had PLENTY of experiance with Asetek mate ;)
And service is not a thing they know anything about, ergo when the product is not what it should be, I state my oppenion and if you want to call that flaming, Do so.

I call it frustration. because after speaking with support at asetek so many times, you get frustrated.

Tehy even try to charge people money for an update of the firmware, the update fixes problems the product has. It dosent give you more for you money. IT FIXES STUFF ;)

That is why it dosent cost money for a new bios, you already paid them.

Apparently you failed to read his post, & just imagined what he said. He was referring to you "horiwonderfull" not understanding his "Nosfer@tu" English, not commenting on yours.

If you tried discussing intelligently or politely it makes for a much cleaner flow of information. I understand his english just fine, why can't you? Adding more smilies does not improve your standing or make your argument solid or logical.

Do you have stock in the company or some thing?

Sry mate, I think you misunderstod me. I never said anything abiut the heating element sticking out.
It was the foam of the socket kit that was sticking out, because of the Shell for the S775, you know the black plastik.
they dident make a hole for the connecters to be in ;)

Maybe if your foam block is sticking out you can shave it back somehow ..:shrug:

Maybe just check for good insulation and Heaters are working before you kill anymore motherboards..heaters are Awsum idea for people like me who only use Phase cooling and leave there Pc at idle for Hours at a time...

My socket kits have a little cut out section for the heating element tab to fold down on so it dosnt pretrude the foam block :D

Maybe next time buy a Custom Phase cooling unit not a Asetek brand and im sure all your worries will go away :D

I did not have "My socket kits have a little cut out section for the heating element tab to fold down on so it dosnt pretrude the foam block :D"

And I liked my LS, But the support was just to bad.
I had to speend more than 20 hours on the phone arguing with them.

But everything works now, so there is no reason not to buy it.

Im just a missurable dude that wants service :yepp:" heheh

First of all, not quite true :)
Second, please, re-read your posts, its quite obvious..

In danish we use the terms "Implicit & explicit sprogbrug"..

"Because of the first reversion of S775 I lost 1 motherboard and almost killed a cpu, it had rust and dark spots from condation!

"Once more you show how littel you know"

"Im not sure you are so skilled as you claim, apparently you dont know what you are talking about or you have problems understanding my english."

But nevermind, no need to continue this, just keep it clean from now on, everything works more smooth when treating one another in a decent way.

No it needs some work and has to be soldered on.

LD does one

Dimas too

Poitres as well

Kayl all the way from Oz

Now it's your call to which ya want but the Vapo style works very well, more so on these sodding LGA775 sockets.

Just search or PM the guys that make them for photos.
