I just fiished testing the Blue ORB II, not only is this baby inaudible it's 12cm fan blades remained motionless during start-up, meaning the dam thing has enough bulk to dissipate tremendous amounts of wattage. It keeps temps so low the fan doesn't have to spin for several seconds? Passive cooler?Quote:

Really...why kind of idle temps and load temps did you get?Quote:

I hope to obtain 2,95 after burn-in :stick: .
Until soon :)
here is my Super PI screenie at 3180mhz, my times seem a fair amount slower then you guys, is that because of my ram?
imageshack seems to be down at the moment, but my final calculation is 28m, 16s with my Opt @3180, and ram at 227, 2,3,2,8
Thats pretty low for a Opty @ 3180 :slapass:Quote:

thats what i was thinking, any idea why my SuperPi is so low?
Wow! Very impressive first post. Awesome air! Welcome to XS. :toast:Quote:

I've had a go up at upping the fsb along with the voltage and also with the lowered mem divider but it failed Prime so I reverted back and just double checked what I'd done. I ran prime with the overclock I attached the screen shot for earlier and it was fine as was SuperPI, however the the FFTs during the torture test is brought the test to a halt in less than a second.Quote:

Is it worth it to go for the 170 over the 165? how are the current weeks that everyones getting overclocking and stuff
My CAB2E 0545 144 does 312HTTx9 1.475vc 3d/2d stable, RAm is mushkin 2x1GB HP3200 with CPU/14 div. 2-3-2-6-1T
I now have a CABYE 0543FPMW to go with my CABNE 0530APMW, and it clocks quite similar.

Decent low volts for 3.2Ghz

Max benchable currently.

Suicide shot just for fun. ;)
well this TCCD realy rocks with opty 148 :

Awesone, love to see nice 3GHz ^ with such tight ram timings over 300 :clap: :toast:Quote:

Out of curiosity what are your ram timings? We have a similar system (except for the ram) but I'm having problems getting mine stable above 2.8 and I'm sure it must be something to do with the ram so I was going to have a look at that area in more detail although what I know about mem timings you could currently write on the back of a postage stamp :DQuote:

man, that's really nice kesnel. Nice setup too.
Yeah your chip should easy do more than 2.8. Anyway here are my ram settings:Quote:

wow. how in hell yall keeping them chips so cool! i mean i have mine on water too, but 1.5v in smartGuardian gives me 43º load 38º idle at 290x10 with 2 6800GT's in the loop and a 120x2 rad.
what im saying is, i have seen (in the last 2 pages) a buncha guys at 2.9-3.1ghz with load temps of 31º??
how in the hell are you guys doing that? and at the same or more vcore. is it cuz im the only one with the hot running CABNE 0530??
im pretty sure now that once you start going over 45º load there is massively diminishing return on OC. once you can keep it below that you can get over 3ghz...
air coolings pretty good these days. my 148 280x10 slk948u w/tornado@3krpm gives me 45c load temps 1.48vcore. Same heatsink with the tornado at full blast holds it sub 50c load 270x11@1.6vcore for benching. a xp90c should hold better temps than this outdated slk948u too. I'd still put the slk948u/tornado against a xp or si120 with anything short of a 120mm delta tho. I can drop my load temps 280x11 1:1 1.6vcore down to 15c with -5c ambient temps ;).
If i were still watercooling i wouldnt run 2x vga cards and a a64 on the same rad if i wanted the best performace. Thats costing you some temps. unfortunatly im not really up on whats available anymore for rads and shrouds but dual 2x120mm rads were being used back in the axp days with r300 cards and chipset coolers. Maby i'll bust out my JPI v5 if im not doing as well as i want when i get my hands on x1900xt CF.
You would be better to run VGAs and CPUs on sperate loops and use atleast a Dual 120mm RAD on each loop with a good pump. And using a T-Line with a fillport instead of a RES would give you less restriction as well. Not sure if you could fit it all inside a case but would be really nice:D

see now i hear that. crazy thing is: its a v1000. i can barely get the rad on there! argh!Quote:

would a single 120mm BIX help or supn like that? that i can for sure fit in....
