Maybe I'll send back 2/3's of a board the next time around.

I won't deny it but that's a strange occurrence. I've never heard of anyone being charged as long as they sent the product back in the manner as asked, especially over a bent socket. He could have claimed it came like that in the first place and for all they know they'd have to accept his claim as is.Quote:

I'm not too happy with the fact that the only air coming into the case has to pass through the PA120.3 first, so this morning I ordered a 120mm fan hole acrylic triple 5.25" bay cover from MM, along with a black 120mm grille, a Yate Loon D12SM-12, and some MX-1 TIM for the CPU to see if I get better temps than I get with AS5. My hope is that I can get some fresh air (that doesn't pass through a rad) into the bottom of the case for the PA 120.2 to take advantage of.
I just photochopped one of my pics and placed a 120mm in the left drive bay. What do you guys think?
http://img182.imageshack.us/img182/8...anfrontpm1.jpg
hmm mod horizon top to accomodate 2 120mm fans, or the 1 besides mobo (extra PSU slot) to another 120mm fan...
you can't be serious that your pa120.3 is sucking air into the case? that's about as smart as running the heater during summer in Arizona :down:Quote:

coolrmaster, how do you propose I get air into my case then? From everything I've read while deciding on a setup, the temperature of the air passing through the radiator doesn't really change. Running 3.65ghz @ 1.46V, I'm getting 33-35degC idle and 52-53 load. From what I've been told, those temps are excellent.
RX7, temps look good, what's the ambient?
I run qx6700 and 8800gtx sli at stock speeds on dtek fuzion and danger den blocks on single loop with pa120.3, temps approx. 8C and 20C above ambient respectively.
Ambient for me is anywhere between 20-22degC. If I set Vcore to Auto and clock down to stock speeds, my CPU idles at around 24-25degC and loads at around 33-35degC.
That's mine,I think with my QX6700 is not important to cool the NB couse you can't get more than 500-510 of fsb...

http://img102.imageshack.us/img102/3219/imgp0183dz7.jpg
Painted the case flat black and added a second loop to accommodate the QX6700. Loops are as follows, PA120.3 -> Fuzion -> Microres -> DB-1 & MCR320 -> 2x EK FC8800 -> Microres -> DB-1
Also I replaced the stock asus p5n32-e sli heatsinks with thermalright HR-09's and HR-05's

@ Roch: it looks sooo... sparse in ur case! i guess thats a testament to how clean it is ;) !
Nice, Roch.
Where did you get the black tygon tubing?
Thanks guys! :)
The Tygon came from Sidewinder computers, took about two weeks to post from the states, it's not the easiest to work with though.

Hi Everyone,
I decided to redo my loop order and add an EK Res 150. My previous loop can be seen on page 158.
Old loop: pump > cpu > gpu > rad > pump w/ t-fitting. With the pump at the lowest setting, I was still having problems fully bleeding the loop.
New loop: pump > rad > cpu > gpu > res > pump. The temps pretty much stayed the same, but bleeding was a breeze. I also added an 80mm fan mounted to the RadBox to blow on my PWMs, this lowered the temps from 50°C to 45°C.
Typhon, that is beautiful!!!!!!!!
Here is my current setup

I have changed the tubing that Petra's gave me with the kit to 1/2" id, 3/4" od. Plus I guess the small tubing that came with the kit when I tried to push it on the plastic barbs for the rad, I pushed too hard and caused a leak. Or the rad was defective. Reguardless, I tried many different ways to stop the leak and finially took it to a rad shop and had it fixed. Cost as much as the rad. Maybe I could have bought the resin and solder and a torch and did it my self, but I wasn't sure I could. In the pic that's rtv all over the rad and tubing.
All in all, I think it turn out good, just need to buy more blue stuff to put in the water.

Thanks.
Thats 3x UV CCFL's @ 9v, 2x 5mm Blue LED's in the TDX aswell as 1x 5mm UV LED. There is also 1x 5mm Blue LED in the DDC top aswell.
Nice colours! What coolant you are using? It's nice and bright :D

The problem with watercooling is the existence of forums like this XS, because it makes you want to expand your setup..
Another EVO120 and EK full 1950XTX coverblock are on the way..
can u show us a picture of the full side of ur case
Heard that running a DDC upside down isn't good, but your loop is pretty sexy!
Any chance of getting a picture of the CPU block?
