Dioda presents IceboX rev1.0 & 2.0 :)

[dioda]

Hello

At last i can present you my adventures with refrigeration cooling on XS. On the link below i have created a gallery of my 2 systems. The pictures presented there can not be copied or used anywhere (of course for money). Have fun watching them and im waiting for comments. Im planning to make a new revision wich will be much more professional. Attention! My level of English is terrible, my friends help me a lot (thanks berkut :).

You there? Welcome, my countryman :D

[FlyBoyGeo]

Very compact, nice job!

i like the mounting on those, got a how-to on how you made them?

Thanks

Everything you may see in this photos in my gallery - http://www.icebox.prv.pl . I can't explain this for simple way because i speak eniglish not so good. :rolleyes:

i am impressed dioda. those are both some of the cleanest dd systems i've seen.

why dont you charge it with some r290 instead of r134a and get some lower temps?

[HawainPanda]

yeah, def very impressive!....dunno, but is it a good idea to run it in a computer?...the compressor can get hot..

Compressor is warm (when he is working long time) but I know what I must do in my future icebox rev 4.0 to reduce warmth from compressor. ;)

Get burkut to explain it all to us :)

Okey, these are the settings/parameters? of computer and its cooling system.

Configuration PC:

http://fc.overclockers.pl/gallery/albums/userpics/10004/CPU.jpg
-Mainboard: Asus A7V8X in VIA KT400 (CPU max use - 2,4Ghz, Vcore max 1,9V);
-Memory in IceboX rev1.0: TwinMOS 512MB DDR 333Mhz @ 384Mhz;
-Memory in IceboX rev2.0: Infineon 512MB DDR 400 Mhz@max of this - mainboard :(;
-Graphic card: GeForce 4MX 440SE 128MB DDR Sparkle (very cheap);
-Hard disk drive: Maxtor 20GB, 7200 & Seagate Barracuda IV 40GB;
-Power Supply: Chieftec HPC–420–302DF (aktive PFC, 420W);

Configuration systems and test results:

IceboX rev1.0:
-Compressor: Danfoss TL4A, r12;
-Evaporation in r12 or r409a max to -49C (not load);
-Overclocked CPU: 1463Mhz@2400, unstable 2,5Ghz (12,5*192Mhz, Vcore =1,72V);
-Max load in CPU & overclocked (tested in HOT CPU Tester 2): Evaporator: -10, CPU: -4C;
-Standard load in CPU (not overclocked): Evaporator: -40C, CPU: -25C.

IceboX rev2.0:
-Compressor: Danfoss PL50FX, r134a;
-Evaporation in r134a max to -28C (not load);
-Overclocked CPU: 1463Mhz@2462Mhz (12,5*196Mhz, Vcore =1,7V);
-Max load in CPU & overclocked (tested in HOT CPU Tester 2): Evaporator: -4C, CPU: 1C;
-Standard load in CPU (not overclocked): Evaporator: -24C, CPU: -10C.

FAN in system and PC:
- Memory cooled by ThermalTake - copper heatsink, in case installed two FAN (Cooler Master, very quiet on 5V), or one FAN in NorthBridge (no name);
- Condenser in IceboX rev1.0 cooled by one FAN 12x12cm (no name);
- Condenser in IceboX rev2.0 cooled by two FAN's 52x52x15mm (Sunon).

If i've had a nForce 2 motherboard my o/c's would probably be better.
Uff... end of my post :rolleyes:

Heh! Nice compact setup! Like a rule, compact+performance=Very nice!!!!

[masterofpuppets]

Nice little systems there. I wouldn't put a compressor close to the motherboard like you have done. Compressors = VERY hot and will most likely damage something if it gets too hot. Other than that, great job. Very neat.

[cold_ice]

You did a very good job at the IceboX rev1.0, very nice case.

[Unseen]

very nice job my friend.

[Unseen]

i was surfing at your site and i have noticed some things...

Your evap is very small. It has a nice design but it is very small. Thats why you r having so many degrees difference between idle and load. And one more is that your flex hose will leak.

[reject]

the first one rules but i hate the second, probly cause the case is cheap
u need a new mobo and gfx man! to see the potential of the setup :D
:toast:

Compressor is cooled by front FAN.

In version 4.0 (miniature system) I will work reduce warmth from compressor. ;)

Your evap is very small.
In the next version I will use chilly's evaporator :D

Back from the grave!!!
