Why limit yourself to the FX4600 when you can get a FX 5600 starting @ $2600ea ?:ROTF:

been pretty busy all day havent had time to play yet.. sad lol
ive been trying everything... help me get rid of this air bubble..
http://evil98.insanity-asylum.com/co.../airbubble.jpg
its a pretty big bubble if you ask me. still surprised im getting good temps lol
ambient in here is pretty high too. heater is blasting. its like 26-27c in here
if everything is secure in the case, then try flipping and rotating the entire case, also some bubbles take time to work themselves out.
as phelan said it, if everything is secure, try tilting and turning to work that said bubble out of your loop, to your T then out your fill port, and hope you don't spill any water.
(gently flip it on its back panel, and a little on its right side, watch the bubble go up to T_line and out...)
your whole rig at around 20-30pounds should provide good exercise and sharpen your hand/eye coordination...
Woah.. Super awesome work. That case is really sweet to work with ;).
sexy rig!! and awesome temps!!
it should bleed out eventually , if you want it out faster , leave your t-line or res open :up:
just some oc progress :rolleyes:
evil check your load temperatures with TAT.

Best tool available, will get your actual load temperatures.
hey cool, thanks. was wondering where i could find that. heard its pretty intensive.
ya it is :D my load temps. TAT gave me were 10C above any other programme.
Post your temps pls
lol i just ran it on my current system
qx6850 at 3.2 on air ambient is around 16c and im loading 2 cores at 56, 2 degrees lower then coretemp which says 58, weird that it only does 2 cores, fully loading would effect overall temps in the system wouldnt it?
Run the programme more than once. Ya the temperature readings are off my me as well. Use TAT for the CPU loading and coretemp for the temperature reading :D
evil, I think you've inspired to redo my rig and throw the rad up externally to increase the space inside my case. Yours has really come out excellent and looks awesome. I've been getting a lot of ideas about how my loop could be better configured in the past few days (plus I've been tempted to cool my video card)
hey thanks your system looks really nice.! glad your inspired
that's a G0? Don't most hit 3.6 with G0 quads, especially on water?
hes got a lot of temp room there 45 load is nothing on the quad core, just give him some time ;)
I don't know how many have tried this, but filling your system with a vacuum pump on one end not only checks for leaks but helps suck trapped air out, but be sure to release the vacuum when the liquid comes close.
hey guys, back from a quick vacation.
so this morning when i got to the office
pushed the system to 3.825 FSB was
up at the 1800s i forget. system booted
normally, vcore was at 1.44 memory was
clocked to 1233 at dram 2.4. everything
looked great, idle temps were at 35 33 30 30
load temps 47 45 42 42. had it at 100% load
test 3D intensive plus, complex rendering for
about 6 mins before it rebooted.
had a screen shot but it rebooted. ill try again later,
maybe on my lunch but need to get some stuff done
so no time to play just yet. my boss left for the day
so i might have more time then i would normally :)
heres some OCing for today
no idea how stable i am here.. rebooted once.
also whats the benefit to going 1:1 ratio? im
just underclocking the ram. is there any way i
can stress test a all 4 cores at once? i did it
with ortho with 2 seperate once and set
affiliations between the cores that worked for a
few minutes but the program picked it up and
locked up. im just rendering as a test. which
is not sufficient. as you can see NB temps have
dropped which is nice DRAMv has lowered too
but thats underclocked
CPU idles at 20c loads at 30c says probe
CPU idles at 32-30-27-27c loads at 45-42-42-38c says coretemp
CPU idles at 20c says bios

Now talk him into a XSI essentials seat and modo.
Great build and you're getting good numbers out of it too.
WTG!
Nice rig you have there!!!! After I saw the CM690 on the web when searching for a new case for my new rig I immediately got the same idea of mounted a top rad. Since I'm new to watercooling I searched for examples of people who already made such a setup. Then I came by this source with a rich availability of information.
I was wondering if you would like to do some measurement for me and could tell me if a PA120.2 (300 x 126 x 64 mm) and a PA120.3 (430 x 126 x 64 mm) rad would fit the top? Moreover, it's not clear to me how you fastened the rad when using the screwholes on both sides of the rad for mounting the fans and at the same time removing the pierced steel of the case. Could you possibly explain that to me?
Thanks in advance for you cooperation and advise!!!!

Looks like my setup but on water !!!
Nice !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
