Yes set it to 100ºC, your temps will show 5ºC higher but are still very good.

you are right in my screen shoot above Everest temps about 5c higher .
Np thanks Quattro. And good job on your o/c so far. Also you have one of the better Q9650s i see ;)
believe me mine is an average batch iv seen much much better ones here at XS .
can you post the settings with 2x1gb ram 1900 mhz?Quote:

Any suggestions for a SB heatsink? I'm looking at the Enzotech CNB-S1L (fanless), but the spacings on the push-pins don't go straight into the board. What I'm thinking of doing is filing off the "arms" on the CNB-S1L and using 3M 8815 thermal tape to secure the copper heatsink to the SB chip.

This tape is the same thermal tape used on Enzotech's BMR-C1 copper MOSFET heatsinks. Performance PC's sells a 2"x2" square of this tape for $2.95. Anyone think this will work, or have any alternative ideas?
Thanks.
enzotech low profile
Drill a hole and use isolation tape :banana:
Just kidding, any low profil cu heatsink will do the trick.
Do you think the 3M 8815 thermal tape will be sufficient to hold the Enzotech CNB-S1L heatsink on the Southbridge chip? I have to say this tape seems very "grippy" with the BMR-C1s I've got. I don't have much confidence in the push-pins, especially when they have to sit at an angle going into the board.
Why dont you just cut the screws shorter on the top, and use nuts instead of those tall ones that came with the heatsink, come on its a easy fix.
Here's what I did with the other mounting nuts -Quote:

That's what is on my RE. It doesn't intefear with my Crossfire setup, even when I was using the stock double slot coolers. It keeps the chip at 40c idle and not much more under load. IMO the NB is the chip that matters on this board, and then maybe the mosfets.Quote:

It's odd as your board looks very similar to my own, referring to the copper heatsinks at the NB area, the Enzotech MST-81's and NB heatsink. It is a little difficult to see the hooks you used in that photograph.Quote:

Good idea and I thought of it, tightening the nuts on both screws would be difficult in addition to the fact the graphics card comes within millimetres of the HR-05 base plate, meaning it will hit the M3 nuts on top.Quote:

just place the hook end over the fixing brkt and tighten the nuts from the underside of the board. Should save you some cash :up:
Hello Rob2k, Happy New Year! Shouldn't your handle be Rob2kIX? Just joking.Quote:

I've already ordered the CNB-S1L, but thanks anyway. When I get it I'm going to try and file off the "arms" and make the heatsink a perfect square, then apply the 3M 8815 thermal tape on the back and stick it to the SB.
Certainly a lot of copper on this board now... :)
i saw that you post new settings with qx9770 can you post your new settings please?Quote:

please rob2k i need your setting post your new settings i writed a private message in this afterron.Quote:

I used brass screws coming up from the bottom. The screws are short and don't go above the top of the fan.Quote:

I could leave the legs on the Enzotech for now. I read in another forum someone left them on so he could attach a 40mm fan, but I'm aiming for less fans in my system. As a result of using the Noctua NC-U6 Northbridge heatsink, which will be fanless, I upgraded to 86 CFM medium-speed Panaflos front and rear (120x120x38mm) to have more air flowing through the system.
I really like that Noctua U9B CPU heatsink, small and compact, and with the medium-speed Panaflo attached to it (48 CFM), it should perform well. I'm selling the Noctua 92mm fan that came with it.
Just waiting on the Enzotech CNB-S1L, I've already got the Noctua U6. Once the Enzotech arrives I can may file it down, attach the 3M 8815 thermal tape, get the U6 installed and the U9B then the board is ready to be installed in the case.
For case fans, do you use rubber anti-vibration grommets, nylon screws, plastic push-pins, regular steel screws, what exactly? The other item I need to know, is if this board will accept 8GB successfully? Or does my overclock determine how much RAM I can use?
Thanks.
Hi aln688, usually I just use the steel screws that come with the fans but for the front fan on the drive bay I used these which isolate and mount the fan all in one. Others have 8Gb installed which should run fine but the 8Gb will likely control the FSB and CPU overclock - not much use having all that memory and running it below it's rated speed.Quote:
