Hey gang,

Just got the Exos2 delivered, I'm going to test with the XP120 and do a comparison using the CPU300-V10.

Rig is in sig:

Running SD 3700+ @ 9x300 1.52v with XP120 and 80cfm fan.

BTW The IHS has been removed

Hope you've modded that XP120 so that it's making proper contact with the core. I guess the load temps will tell.

So far I'm pretty impressed with the temps ;)

I've had alot of water rigs in the past and a couple of Exos cases too, even though this is not extreme water I think it is overall a very cool setup. Its dead silent and thats what I needed for this rig since its in our family room.

For load test I ran Prime for 15min and the idle temps where measured 15min after I finished runing prime.

Pwmic temps are up now that I don't have the fan blowing on the area from the XP120.

I'll see about OCing a bit tomorrow, my girlfriend is getting a little jealous about my relationship with my rig ! lol

BTW: I have lowered the plastic mount for the XP120, it makes 100% contact with naked core.

Looks real nice Slaughter. The Exos 2 is certainly a looker.

Improved airflow inside case, I added 2 x 50mm fans off A64 stock coolers. One over the memory and the other over the Mosfets area.

This is my max prime stable OC 2808mhz 9x312mhz @ 1.58v.

My memory errors above this and will have to play with settings, 10x multi is flaky, and 11x......well I'm not going to use 11x ! lol

Screen is of full load temps while running prime after 30mins, this is after increasing Vcore by .5v and with the Exos2 fans on at 50%.
