Oh, blast!
Sorry mate. I didn't get where you were coming from.
Now I feel foolish.

Would it be safe to conclude, for now, that the temp improvements are within margins or error? I dunno if 1 or 2 degrees difference is that big of a deal. Don't get me wrong, I have a set of nozzles, just wanted to see if it will be worth the trouble to take the Fuzion apart and install it.
Well altogether I did 10 mounts the other night, and the sealed/nozzled mounts are pretty consistently lower than the ones I did beforehand.
I did discover one interesting thing though... Bringing ceramique down to 0C then back up to ambient improves its performance by about 2-3C very quickly...
I have to be patient and wait for my AS Ceramique to cure, but so far I am seeing some improvement, and it is inside of 2 degrees, but I cannot say that its limited to a margin of error because the AS has to fully cure before any conclusions can be drawn. Its only been 1-1/2 days since I installed.Quote:

To all who are waiting for their TIMs to cure, how about using Arctic Cooling MX-2? IIRC, it does not need time to cure.
I guess I'll tear it down tonight or tomorrow night. Heck I paid for it, so might as well use it. I should see some immediate temp improvements since I'm using MX-2Quote:

Also, got my Petra's pen and decal!!!! :woot: Thanks guys.
Well, its been two days, and its still under 2 C. Of course, in the NY area, its a wet, humid and unseasonably stuffy night.
Anyone else has quad nozzle findings to report, no matter how preliminary ?
Just initial impression,
I added the q6600 nozzle and the gasket supplied between the middle and upper plates.
I also added a NB swifty water block and a crappy MIPS Mosfet block to my loop on my IP-35.
But even with the increased restriction from added blocks (which by the way are coming out - due to very bad performance from the MIPS mosfet block) - I am still getting 2 degrees lower on my CPU under load. (I would also like to mention that the ambient temp have increased this week in my country - only to strengthen the validity of result.)
This is by no means a through test...just my individual findings.
This result was consistent on 3 different mountings.
I didn't install it, but the 3.5 nozzle for the dual cores looks awfly narrow. I don't doubt the results, but it's just hard for me to imagine that it doesn't cause serious restriction. I guess spray plpacement and turbulance has a greater effect than I thought.
I'll post my results this weekend. Sorry I don't have a quad to test with.
Has anyone tried putting a non quad nozzle on a quad?

Well you are all going to be jealous, but when I ordered my D-tek Fusion, 5 Scythe fans, and 10' 1/2" Tygon hose from Petra, I received a blue pen, and a hand made PTS Monster!!
There was a note that he was guarding my fans during shipping, and that he probably would be hungry by the time he made it to my house... ;)
Thanx Alex!
I have a socket 939 3800x2 and I am busy with assembling watercooling, and I have a D-tek Fuzion. Will it work for that cpu too?

And as for PTS. They are the best. Their packing is top notch. Great service all the way around.
Haha that monster is a rort, someone has too much time on their hands! :P
Man...I've recieved several pens and notes, but that monster is cool!:up:
Well, I don't know if it was the PTS Monster, or just the killer selection of products, but I just placed another order with Petra's.....
I am now an official repeat customer. ;)
I see that Petra is out of the nozzles again. Any idea when the next boat arrives?
say in stock for me.
Well, I don't see any more improvements over here. Maybe I need to remount once more? So far, my wife's cpu has gained 2 C and I think its plenty good... great.. Quad nozzle on a QX6700 at stock speed and stock voltage. System temp is still a tad high, but that's because its a "silent" type of computer and there's a general lack of good airflow.
