i'll open it up when i get the new one, field work is just tiring..

oh yeah ek supreme is bowed...i just found out, which explains why my mounting temps were really close to another..but the bowedness(is that a word) around the outside of the base...

can anybody confirm the bow is circular? the gtz i think is cylindrically(is this a word) bowed

Hell of a block... but isn't cheap. Having machined *tiny* electromechanical parts for more than a decade I must say the quality of the work on the bases is quite impressive though.

gtz cylindrical, because inner square frame has to "humps" top and bottom to bow the base...

yeah i've ever so pleased with the pin and microchannel design..the nickel plating at the base is soooo goood its still shiny:up: after several mounts

So it´s the D-tek the better choice for I7 today ?

man...
I currently have D-tek Fuzion V1 and not sure if I should get GTZ or Koolance 350:shrug:

BTW, D-tek guys must be upto something in their labs to miss this oppertunity to add just a simple mounting bracket... :rolleyes:

Agreed. I'm in the same situation as yourself. I'm waiting before I pull the trigger on purchasing either the GTZ or 350 to see Hondacity's results. Come on D-Tek, show us your new toy... please?

Any of you water-cooling experts have thoughts on the XPSC Delta block for Nehalem?

Hahaha! Right above my original post! Sorry. :p:

Those are some decent temps. What are your loads like? You should try using Real Temp and calibrate it to your processor.

thats idle.

idle doesnt prove anything.

Load her on OCCT or Linpack.

Also you didnt state ambients.

What ambients are you running?

THe XSPC block is a great block, its a low restriction block which means it will do better on multi block setups.

But it will get its ass handed by a GTZ, KL-350 and a pressure pump system on its own loop.

u think that was idel lol i was 2 hrs of prime buddy and as far as ambients is there a program to use for ambients

This only works if you have an injector in the mid plate.

If your running a low restriction block, pump order has no impact.

The reason why it works well on injectors is (my theory) the pressure is hitting the mid plate more evenly. This gives you a better impact and also better performance.

Moving your pump to get 1-2C is what i think is worth it. We change blocks sometimes to get that last bit of performance.

So changing the pump first to the block with the K-350 will lower temps then?

NaeKuh check out my new build. My sig below:up:

no bud this is idle.

And excuse me, a program to find ambients? Its called a thermometer at your intake.

Post one of these with realtemp on at the start of your test so we can see your MAX temp:
Oh and realtemp has a timer too BTW.

Or this is fine with 10min into it:

Yes, by 1-2C. Honda quadruple confirmed it for me.

Here a little GTZ mountplate modd to make it fit the D-tek Fuzion v1. Needs a little more adjustment but i hope it works :)

That is some fine fine chip you go there.:up:
What batch# is it ?
Mine requires 1.425v to run @ 4200Mhz with HT=ON.
Temps are nice, about 73c for the max core with LinX .0.5.5.

BTW, Linpack only use 50% of the CPU if your HT is on, make sure to use LinX 0.5.5 if you want to get 100% Load on the CPU with HT=ON.

it still loads up cores hotter then occt.

you can see that by looking at realtemp max temp.

I just had to make a bigger hole. It´s a differance of about 2-3mm on each side that u have to do bigger on the GTZ plate. Just use a dremel and go :)
