what size pelts would i need for -10 full load?

[Gimmpy224]

on an amd64 754 white castle? I was hoping I could get it at ~-10c running at 2.3gh with 1.7v running through it.

impossible or would I need a big a22 pelt?

You need a large pelt running in a sweet zone, NOT FULL POWER, to get the effiency.

There's probably a better way to get more power out of your system than overclocking your aging 754 newcastle. ;) The money you'll spend on pelts and a power supply can almost get you a nf3 ultra-d and an opteron 144. :D

HHhhhmmm? How you gonna get that much drop with lower voltages?

Remmember, dT drops as voltage drops.

Doesnt sound like a reasonable goal without some serious TEC knowledge and possibly some other forms of cooling combined with it. You are looking at powering a >50c drop in temps with a GOOD WCing system(40c hot side...).

idk, evaporative cooling might get you into a reasonable range, a frosty winter temperature and outside rad would help.....

yea but the opterons arnt being made anymore and can hardly be found lol. so like..... 0.0

get a 420+watt pelt and get a setup like I jsut got finnished building to cool it:

looks pretty sweet :D can i get some specs on that? like what heatercore is that?
so your cooling your pelt with that big thing, what kinda temps you gettin? or have you not tried it out yet?

Unoid thats a nicework of art you've got there
