Great info Vapor.. Thanks for posting them.
So my Nickel+Copper DD480 block was a pretty decent choice afterall.. exiting. Runs great for me.. Never seen a temp over 60C, even with OC/OV

Afterburner Final will not go any higher than 1.138 volts, if I set it to 1.21 and click apply it jumps right back to 1.138 volts. I must be missing something here! :confused:Quote:

Can you enlighten me in how and what program to use, beginner here needs help. :DQuote:

Awsome review! glad i got the DD block! Vapor, and skinnee thank you so much for the test! :up: And who cares about that score stuff in LN2/overclocking or w/e its called...is that crap really that popular!? :rofl: doesn't change my appreciation for all that hard work you guys did on this review. :yepp:
+1 ;)Quote:

Got three Koolance blocks coming my way, the LEDs did it.
The VRM temps are idle temps right? Cause there is no way in hell they run that cool under full load. Fire up Furmark and leave your hand on the back of the card near where the mofsets are and you could get burned.
OT but skinnee...
thank you very much for all the great information and work you have done for noobs like myself... your work and the work of many others that have contributed to this art we call hobby is greatly appreciated...Quote:

overall dd but with 7 on gpu.. which actually is more important the weights overall dont count
overall ek and koolance is best
but for more temp performance aqua block is the best
For bling, Koolance with the LEDs. :D
(You can choose your own color.)
They're load temps :)Quote:

Glad I bought the aquacomputer blocks. They should be here in two or three days, can't wait. Not too happy with flow, but at least they perform well!
AC block is a solid performer for GPU only loops. Not very unexpected looking at the design. I would go DD or EK for mixed loops though.

Damn... Just missed 1000th post... Well 1001 isnot bad also :)
Good info there... and pretty tight results on most of the blocks.
