OIC, thanks for the info
still waiting for results ;)
just another small questions, what will be the boiling point of water under vacum ? is it 40C ? and how much % is filled with water of any heat pipe to enable it to work perfectly ? also with ur R134A how much did u fill the heat pipes ? or this will need some trial and error to find the best amount needed ?
It depends on how much vacum there is in the pipe, on the top of Mounth Everest the boiling point for water is 78deg.C, thats why you cant boil an egg there ;) It`s all dependent on the pressureQuote:

Yes, there is a chance that I have to trim the filling grade of R134A, but i belive the 23g should do the trick
Grabbed one of these off of eBay for cheap $$ months ago, looked like a good design. Kept hearing..no, BT only,etc.. Glad to see you doing this project! Can't wait for the results!
attached som fans
If you succes with it it will be a "Watercooling setup" killer :)
man i cant wait for the results, this is rad
ArticOC you are the man ! :toast:
Waiting on some results ;)
If nothing else, this has been a very interesting experiment !
I thought heatpipes contained Ethanol....?Quote:

Man, it's people like you that put the Xtreme in xtremesystems :D
Well, then I have started to test the cooler..
The room temperature is aprox.20deg.C
This is an opty165 running at 1,52V @ ~2600MHz, the IHS removed, is this first results any good? :D The thermalpaste has not setled yet, this would give a degree or two less I belive
Hmm, BT can handle this too, give him a bit more Watts! ;)
Gave it 1,62V, and the heat production should be really really high :fact:
The result was quite uplifting, I`m very pleased with this cooler :toast:
Idle tepms @ 1,62V :toast:
nice. good to see all that work paid off for ya! Congrats on some really nice temps under high vCore. :)
Unfortunately, I don't feel this experiment can be completed successfully unless you can measure the performance delta between your current setup and a Quad-Micro setup. ;) :D
Hehe.. no man! This was a really hard mod to do, so the next mod/project you`ll see from me is "The ZRK" http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...&highlight=zrkQuote:

Posting a picture for your pleasure before I jump to bed :toast:
great idea, excellent implementation 10/10 :D I notice you're just using one fan in the latest photo, any reason for that?
Really amazing stuff.
BTW what are those heatsinks you are using for your harddrives?
Pretty good temps.. I bet you could drop another C if you faced it about 90 degrees to the right..
ya why only 1 fan, i think using two as u showed in a previuos picture will be better
One is plenty :D It works just as good, dont like too much noiseQuote:
