yeah use your own thermalpaste btw =)
Use your own fans as well, push pull drops upto 15C with these.Quote:

Either he had amasing crap airflow in his case. The rad in my 3 setups didn't benefit much from high RPM fans, the gain with 2 fans was good, but not 15°C, something is not correct here...
Would love to see some pictures of that install/setup
Mine came today, trying it on my amd x2 550 4 core unlocked at 3.9 ghz, im impressed , lot better than my sunbeam core contact cooler
Only came with the intel bracket, but i got the amd fitting last week from corsair.
Only problem i have is i cant fit it wuth tubes to left or right, have to be on top, and side panel wont fit on my antec 900 with it :-(

To all H50 users, how do you run your pump/block config ? Mine is installed with the Corsair logo horizontal. I got a pm that when rotating it 180°C ( so the Corsair logo upside down ) that the kit's performance is slightly better.
I will try this myself and will report back, if anyone feels the urge to test it out, plz report back here with results...
Kind regards Albrecht

This would be interesting..........Quote:

Waiting for you guys to review it...and i mean individual users...some results please..

If you check the alignment of the cooling channels, I think conventional cooling cannon states you should flow water across the cores.
Hey was planning to get this with a lancool dragon series. The depth of the case is around 8.27 inches....would the side panel close with the radiator mounted at the rear exhaust...saw a post somewhere where some dudes Antec 900 would not close after installing this....what should be the depth of the case for this to be properly installed.
If you can mount the rad in a normal position so with the tubes either at the top or the bottom you will have no issue mounting it or when closing the case. But in case like the guy above, when you can't mount it in a normal way, the protrusion of the in and outlets will interfere with the case door ( this is due to the fact he got the top pci(E) slot filled with a soundcard )
Ok...thanks that helps...my top couple of slots are usually free. I have my GPU in the third PCIE slot and nothing above that except for a single wifi controller....so it should fit fine I would guess.
Oh c'mon. It's been like 3 months and not a single shop has the Hydro H50 here in Slovenia. What a disapointment.
They are pretty rare in the UK too.......though I managed to get one, just aint got the time for an overhaul til later this week :(Quote:

First of all, I only have the exhaust fan up top for the case (I have a fan in front and in the "lower" chamber but they all pull air in), second this will be pulling in air from the power supply exhaust and the graphics card exhaust. I have contemplated flipping it to be an exhaust and using dual fans for push/pull, but the reviews seem to give varying opinions on this. I could try to pull and/or vent from the top - but venting hot air out the top seems like a no brainer. I could move a hard drive in my center case and try to pull air from the front.
Has anyone used an H50 in this case (or a case like it) - How did you mount it? Are you happy with the results?
BTW - I have 4 sticks of RAM and I had to increase the voltage on my Northbridge chip already and I have to watch the temp carefully.

I have a Thermaltake Spedo, and whilst its not like a P180, I had the same issues in terms of using a high rear fan port as an intake.Quote:

The exhaust system will only be effecient if you have adequate air intake (so when the air reaches the rad, its cool :P).
Hope this helps
just bought one, comparing it to my vendetta 2 w/ xigmatek crossbow kit

A few questions:
How long are the water tubes?
Do you know of any adapters that would let me use their 120mm radiator/fan in a 140mm mount?
How terrible would it be to mount the radiator inside the case somewhere? After all, that's what most air coolers do, right? If someone with a P80 has any ideas, please let me know.
