TJ09 Temp Problems!

[psmawson]

Hi Guys,

Hoping someone can help me get on top of my water cooling temperature problems.

System as follows...

Asus Striker II Formula BIOS 1305
Intel Q6600 G0 2400Mhz
2* 8800 Ultra 655Mhz, 2250Mhz, 1665Mhz

Water Cooling as follows...

3/8" Tygon Tubing & Freser One Fluid.

Loop 1 - EK X-Res 100mm > DCC-3.2 18W > Alphacool NexXxoS Xtreme II 120.1 (1* SilverStone FN121) > Alphacool NexXxoS Xtreme II 120.1 (No fan) > EK Supreme > Alphacool NexXxoS Xtreme II 120.1 (1* SilverStone FN121) > EK Asus 3 Mofset > EK Asus 3 Mofset > EK S-Max > EK S2F 780i

Loop 2 - EK X-Res 100mm > DCC-3.2 18W > Alphacool NexXxoS Xtreme II 120.3 (2* SilverStone FN121) > EK 8800 Ultra > EK 8800 Ultra

Just want to thank everyone in advance. Thanks

there is no data for load temps!

[jkresh]

your idle temps seem a little high (cpu anyway), but all that really maters is your load (and delta T), so until you post your load temps I don't think you will get much help

[psmawson]

Just updated my temps.

Just wanna thank everone again in advance.

I'll post up a pick of how its all running. The reason for no fan on one of the rads is there isn't any room to do so.

Added pick in first post

It looks like you've saturated your box for cooling capacity without going external... What about a spot cool or something on the passive one?

[psmawson]

only the first rad on the front section of the case is pushing fresh air in and the rest are all pushing air through from the inside of the case out through the rads.

All I'm now thicking is that I'm going to have to dismantel my rig and change the air flow. And hope it would make that difference.. as for the rad with no fan would I be able to run everything thats in the first loop with just dual 120.1's?

The rad that is running passive is the very bottom 120.1

your temps (and delta T) are pretty decent (should be a little lower since your arent overclocking your processor?) but they are not too bad (q6600 runs fairly hot), gpu temps look pretty good.

[psmawson]

Would you see any point in upgrading the rads and fans for PA120 and PA360 and Yate Loons? At the same point chaning the air flow directions?

Would doing this inprove the temp by much?

Decided late at night thats its time to rip my system down and get my case done out properly and build the system from scratch. I've asked Tom at Chilled Pc to mod my case with extending the top vent and adding one in the bottom and a quick paint... :d

keep an eye out for the new build. Not that this one is very old...

Going to get some better fans to go along with my current rads aswell.

Cheers again, Phil
