Nah, it works fine from ebay.co.uk, so it should work fine from elsewhere.

So am I lol, so am I :D

Link meh and ill posteh.

Congrats on the build! What do you credit the good load temps to...the new pump? I have a D5 and dual priming my load goes up to about 44C when the ambient is around 20C.

You got that right... if it dont get me silence or performance I dont do it.

As to where.. well I've upgraded radiator, pump and popped off the IHS. And that test was done when the TIM had been sitting there for all of like 20 minutes. I'm sure it'll only get better.

thnx ^_^

Buon lavoro. Congratulazioni da me.

Pardon my spelling in Italian but its been way too long.

Grazie ^_^

Crediki,

Here is hte linkage to my Stacker thread:

Stacker Slacker

Congratulations m8! One very nice work! :up:

That reminds me of the work i need to do with my loop. 140mm fans, bigger tubing and maybe painting case. But all that after my summer vacations... :p:

Really looking forward to some results there... looks good :)

Well, 7-8c idle-load delta w. rad fans @ 4.25v is pretty good for now.

I'll try jacking them up to 12v when i nump to 3.0GHz :)

Did you see a nice jump when removing the IHS? Mine is still on, and I found out why my CPU is such a :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana: when it comes to temps. I used this little tool which monitores both core temps individually and saw why core 1 always bumped out of Prime... because it was way hotter than core 2 or the normal reading from the board.
Just curious about your results there :)

That little tool reports idle temps below coolant temps for me on core #0, so I wouldnt trust it much if I were you :)

As for adv. regarding removing the IHS? Well, I used to have a 9-10c delta with D12SL-12s @ 9.5v.

Now I have 6-7c with D14SM-12s @ 4.25v.

How much of that is down to the Increase in rad size? Pump upgrade? IHS removeal? Stronger fans? Air ducts? (my 120.2 was rebreathing a lot of warm air from inside the case)

Your guess is as good as mine.

Uncapping temp gains mostly depend on how old your CPU is and how long/hot its been running.

TIM1 on my FX-53 was absolutely cooked, like old broken pottery, loads of gaps in between the hardened pieces and dusty. I saw like a 9c decrease when I uncapped that.

On my 170 it was still slightly damp.

from 9-10 to 6-7 is a very nice gain in delta... good job m8!

Yes, espcially with fans running @ less than 1/2 the voltage :lol2: *hugs his rig*

Yeah, well. Too many changes made... still a nice gain :)

And yes, you're right about the "absolute" temps it reports. For me it was just intreresting to see that core 1 got significantly warmer than core 2, which would be an explanation why it always bumped out of Prime... I'll check if that goes away with removing the IHS.

my cores diff 6-7c acording to coretemp :( would explain why one core always crap out at a certain temp which i thought was around 50c with -3 ofset = 53c
if coretemp is reading that diff right it would be more like 59-60 give or take what the sensor calibration is of by. going to be fun to se what happens with a decent watersetup and lower temps :)

It can't be too accurate, but at least those differences from core 1 and 2 are interesting I'd say.

Sorry to bring back an old thread, but you have 2 drive bays free with the 120.3 mounted, correct?

The real question is this... how quiet is it... (sorry Im much too lazy and dont have the time to read through the whole thread)

btw awesome work creidiki.. the 140mm fans look pretty sweet... and the rest.. .well I dont think I need to say much about the rest of the equipment.

If you guys are looking for 140MM fans, Aerocool makes them with a 140 to 120MM adaptor. I have one in the front of my V2000 - works great at 7v.

That's the ones i want to put in my PA. :up:
Of course when i'm not too lazy and broke from spending money on other plans... :p:

just thought about something, wouldnt it be better with 1\2 tube between t-line and pump, in the same way 7\16 is better than 1\2 on 1\2 fittings?

did you buy only the t-line and nothing else from vcore.dk?

Don't ban me for digging up this thread, but criediki, can you tell me what material your sound dampening foam is? Where did you purchase it?

Thanks.

It looks like Akasa Paxmate or accoustipack.

@joe: Tried the 140 to 120mm adaptors, they're too big to mount on a PA :( Needs some custom mounting to put them on...

A custom shroud shouldn't be to hard to fabricate from aluminum or tin.

Normally not. I'll try to get an alumumium/stainless stell one, I'm curious about the results of 140mm fans in 1:1 comparison to 120mm fans.

Thanks m8. I know it. The space between the fans on the PA isn't enough for 140mm ones.
In my opinion u can keep the middle fan holes as they are and drill new ones for the other two.

Results are allways welcome btw... :)
