I told youthat Humpty Dumpty BBQ potato chips would help reduce the temps :rofl:
I see that you did the right thing and cleaned all your blocks in the washing machine. Did you use distilled water in the washing machine and dry the radiator in the dryer? :rofl:
Great job with the rebuild :up:
Heres a quick run i did this after-noon with a fresh Vista X64 installation with nVidia's latest Beta drivers for Crysis.

I'm pretty much satisfied with that until i get some more free time to play around with clocks :D
I'm shocked that the girl is understanding enough to give youtime to tinker with the machine!
The Ek Res is en Ek-150 with a bottom Rev.2. And as for the other one, it's the Performance Pc's Cyclone Res. You can only find it @ www.performance-pcs.comQuote:

Just joking. Hope she feels better soon :)
Yeah, i hope to :( When she is sick, i feel sick as well... If you know what i mean.
oh, and I thought that it took me a lot to bleed... thnx this is really reassuring, I mean, I hate the filling/bleeding procedure the most, but what can you do. And best wishes for your girls' recovery :up:Quote:
The CPU\NB\SB loop took 3 hours to fully bleed! After 3 hours, the whole loop was bubble free! That was insane! I filled and a few hours later i was running the comp... Really, i didn't felt i needed to wait for a 24 hours leak free test. I really mastered the non-leaking watercooling loop builds The answer is Worm Drive Clamps!
As for the GPU loop, it was a total different story... It needed close to 2-3 days to fully bleed! This freaking Ek-Res 150 Rev.2 makes it a total pain in the @ss to bleed a set-up... Really, i hate that Res. Next time, I'll buy another one. I'm getting tired of those long-lasting bubbles.. Even with the T-Line trick on top of the res, it's still a pain to bleed. It took days before i would not see that freaking bubble line going out of the GPU2 block into the res. I would see a line of bubbles acting as a tornado all the time! I even think that when i took those pics posted above, it would still have that bubble line in the tubing when it goes out of GPU2 into Res... Anyway, it's completely gone now. One other thing i do to make sure there is no bubble stuck int he rad is i move the case around. I lean it, shake it and even drop it (Gently tho...).
p.s. did you use v-lite for your vista install? if not, please check out this little progy, it's very useful, it lets you remove and integrate anything in Vista, great stuff (my ultimate x64 install went down to 1.2GB DVD space) ;)
E X C E L L E N T :)
Beautiful!! Just beautiful!!
Worth every second of pain if you ask me :)
Congrats on finnishing it m8.
Edit: Should get me to replace the opamps and power cap on your X-Fi. youwill be astounded at the difference on your Klipsch 2.1's. I would really only need to change one opamp too since you are only using the front channel :)
Now that you've finally finished.... its time to upgrade !! :D
Like I said, it's only a matter of time before he gets the itch again. No machine is ever finished, especially around here.Quote:

BTW: Nah i didn't used V-lite. I don't know what it is Heh
