Still Bleeding with no water Additive for now at about 18 hours. WaterWetter soon but the PA120.3 is new so I'm just interested in clean water filtering for now. New Case/PSU, PA120.3, Denki's, and new Tubing = System up for 18 hours new :)

Thanks for the post!
neo rtr, let me know when you are ready for an entry on our listing buddy.
This is what I would have for you so far:
neo rtr ----------- 1.70v ------ 38°C ----------------------------- QX6700 @ 3.6GHz
Your NB voltage might be a wee bit high?
Feel free to correct and re-post. :)
I am always glad update your info any time you would like, so don't feel your locked into anything that I might post boy's.. :up:
The NorthBridge is set as 1.63V i Bios- reported as 1.70V by PC Probe and everest-Quote:

Reason for the higher NB voltage is that during testing had system errors, crashing and this settings has been rock solid for a good 3 months now (from previous set up on air cooling)
Rum temperature is 24.5C / 25C as per my digital thermometer.
testing full load

Last picture. I got one more fun this morning so the side panell looks like this.

Was going to put a fanduct from the side panel to provide additional flow to the NB and Memory area, sort to speak but no space left, the pipes are in the way. maybe next time.
now time to OC some more!! :shocked:
EDIT
redone cabling

You have enouigh air going in there so shame most cases. I wouldn't sweat it. ;)
I think it is looking fantastic... You did a good job. :yepp:
I love the molex snake :)
Looking at it does not look good. Maybe will redo the cable work and get all 4 cables coming from the fans joined and only one molex connector to the PSU molex.Quote:

Iam trying to overclock some more but getting huge issues.
1) OC of 3.8Ghz
2) OC of 4.0Ghz
I have try to go up to Vcore 1.70V with no luck.
Any one that knows any settings for the QX6700
I am into that the CPU PLL play some part to this.
So far 400 x 10 , 444 x 9 or 422 x 9 no go! :down:
will try to adjust the cpu pll to anything other than auto.
in the mean time any suggestions pls let me know
:welcome:
Know this is way past when it was asked, but my NB runs 54C to 56C on stock air cooling. Have it at 1.63v's. Have had it this way for some time. Runs Prime 7hrs and games 5-6hrs OK (most I have checked it as wife gets reallly mad at heat generated during a multi hour prime run).Quote:

Switching to liquid as soon as all my parts get here and I get case mods done for mounting Thermochill pa 120.3 just inside top of case. Although plan to go full liquid after market, The first build will retain the stock fuzzion block.
Hey dogin, what voltage are you using for your 3.6GHz? I have the same CPU and my 24/7 settings is 3.6GHz at 1.37v CPU-Z. I can run 3.8GHZ at 1.4v bios. Still to scared to try 4GHz.
Monitoring tools show 1.33-1.36 applied independant of what is set in the bios (1.4 set in bios) which I don't understand. Have tried 4.0GHz but NB gets too hot on mine (running 4 gigs of ram too, but had to bump v's to 2.4 after mobo adds its .2 overvolt setting). Will try it again when get liquified.Quote:

Really don't know how good it is running the NB at 56C (same as CPU), as the system does put out some heat, but haven't had any problems??? Yet????
Look like we're on par with this chip. Maybe I'll try my hand at a higher clock since I have fans on the NB and SB heatsinks I just need to dial them up to max and see how the temp get.
I just don't want to go pass 1.5v on CPU voltage or can this chip handle more? I guess the temp will be the deciding factor here...right?
Thanks my friend for you reply.;)
Are people finding lower cpu temps and voltages with or without loadline calibration turned on?
any unmodded passive cooler for sb like the enzotech CNB-S1L that can be fixed up at this mobo?
Hey guys, is there a critical South bridge temp on these boards? I've been running stable for months. Today is the first "hot" day of the year. It hit 89F and is currently 87F. My SB is hitting 50C. (stock cooler) NB is 44C and the 4 cpu cores are all 55C and under @ 100% load. I've had a couple random reboots today and it's the symptom of instability ever. Thoughts???
Just want to say thanks for this thread.
from the beginning, my NB temps have always been over 45 degrees under load and SB at about 50 degrees.
I thought it was the weather (being summer) so i found an old tualatin or AMD cpu fan and jammed it onto the NB sink, this kept the NB temps below 48 degrees or 50 degrees when i O/C.
After reading this thread this morning, i decided to rip the NB/SB heatsink off with the use of the hair dryer.
mucked around for a few hours trying to figure out the best way to remove the hard TM, ended up using a paint scraper...very carefully.... since heat only seemed to bake i on more.
while removing the heatsink, I found the screws for the NB were loose, very loose. with the heatsink off, i saw the SB heatsink only had contact on one corner, so this would also explian the ocassional Sb overtemp warning.
the TM on the NB was very thick.
Even after lot of scrapping, i couldn't completly remove the TM, the copper and IHS still had a dirty look, but without using sand paper, i couldn;t do any better.
I adjusted the heatsinks carfully, making sure the SB was now striaght so ALL the heatsink would touch the SB.
I applied some AS5, mounted the heatsink with the fan and now i find my temps under stock settings and under load is now NB 36 degrees and the SB is 37 degrees.
thats about 10 degrees less than i started with and the AS5 hasnt had time to set in yet AND thats with traces of the old TM sill on the blocks.
So thank you, i cant wait to see if i can gain a better O/C now.
