It looks so well
I love that nf4 home-made chipset cooler :D
Nicely done.... I have an HTPC something like this but I had to cut the voltage to the 939 chip and drop the multi to keep it cool enough in a tight little case...
If you are cooling the rig in your sig totally fanless i am really impressed . Very nice job ;) .
BTW , i liked the UTT cooler :D
nicely done :D
nice ideas
temps?
very nice work
- DFI nF4 Ultra-D
- 344FSB@1,6V 1029HTT BUS
- OCZ PC4000 VX 1,5 2 2 6@DDR500 3,1V
- Venice3000+ 1,47V@2920MHz
CPU max 55deg C
GPU max 80deg C (non OC`ed X800XL)
Chipset max 45deg C
RAM max 55deg C @3,5V (tested for purpose)
RAM MOSFET max 60deg C (w/4V enable)
Mainboard max 50deg C
HD 1 max 55deg C
HD 2 max 50deg C (zalmancooler)
All stresstest except for GPU was run in 20deg C ambient and case closed (Prime95). All test`s run at very high clocks and voltage
The GPU was stressed with ATI Tool
Still enhancing my cooler.. Also solved the problem with high temps on the powercuircut for the memory (4V jumper). The copper heatbridge takes care of that

http://forum.hardware.no/index.php?a...ost&id=4756996Applied LOTS of pressure and thermalpaste before tightening the bolts :eek:

impressive..
now the only noise you have is the harddrives and the optical drive.. which i assume you have padded.
Very well done. Really imnpressive!
I plan on using a RAM-heatsink similar to your design. I'm still in the first developing stage (need to do some Autocad schematics). I'm going to make my version a little more flexible than yours, though.
BTW, further improvements to your already great setup could also be:
-using thicker copper for you mosfet heat bridge
-using some copper on the heatpipe base that contacts the GPU-core
-using a Thermaltake Sonic Tower heatsink instead of the Asetek
I know your setup is already outstanding. The above stated improvements are not meant as disrespect. I only would like to help you make it even better.
No, I dont see your tips as disrespect ;)Quote:

But your tip on the sonic tower I would not follow, the Asetek Micro beats the sonic fairly easy. :nono:
The GPU will get a new cooler, the thermalright V1 in a ducting system. (More to come)
Really? I haven't heard this, is there a review your could direct me to.Quote:

Yeah, I honestly don't know for sure which one is better, but what I know is that once using it actvely cooled, the Sonic Tower beats the Vapochill Micro. Anyway, who cares. 55°C full load temp is very good already considering it's passively cooled. :toast:Quote:

19 hours of prime95 running
As I already said, really impressive stuff there. :eek: Great results. I would only be a bit worried about the mobo temp of 74°C, or is this reading incorrect?
The PWM area is actually fine at that temperature. It won't facilitate a mega-OC, but they'll certainly work at those temps.

I`m aiming to get the temperature down to 65deg.C @full load, this is a 24/7 safe solution :)
Man, you are insane! You did a fantastic job in there. Congratulations!
*update* I see your location now. Its the advantage of living near the north pole....
Yea, really nice results. Something I'm wondering is did u put the mosfets chips on with AS ceramique or the thermal tape. If u wanna get really into this, try cutting a 120mm hole into the bottom of the PSU, and getting a different fan and duct. May make it a little quieter and cool a little better.
The small sinks at various places on the mainboard is mounted with regular super glue. Works wonders ;)Quote:

Ductet some air to the PWM area, and now the mainboard temp. is about 58deg C @ full load :toast:
The system is almost non-audible
Please show/tell more about that chipset heatsink. I'm in love.
very nice, excellent job - ill chuck in my 2 cents tho...
gpu is a lil hot - fit a heatsink to the rear of gpu. check the link out - its the standard sink that came with my 5200, and i put a cpu sink on the front. if u cut the rear ramsink a little, so you can fit a sink on the rear of your gpu it would help.

i used two fibre washers in the corners to stop heatsink shorting everything out and heaps of silicon paste to fill the gap. im using an old intel cpu heatsink on the back of my cpu also. the socket temperature stays near ambient, and the cpu gets lowered a few degrees because you aren't cooling the cpu's pins directly. i should try filling my socket with silicon paste.
Very nice, ArcticOC.
But there is a fan in the PSU, so it's not completely passive.
Mine is completely passive and diskless.

This is for SETI@home only.
So, its OS is FreeBSD without X.
I have an i-RAM, but I can't use it until LANPARTY UT NF4 SLI-DR Expert comes:(
where the fark did u get that heatsink??? what does it weigh 10, 15 kg?? i had to make my subwoofer's 5kg sink which is less than half as big as your cpu sink because i couldnt find any bigger than 1 kg!! where's that ps from aswell???
If you look closer he has a normal cooler in contact to the CPU. Then he modded the place where you place the fan with a giant aeroplane cooler.
Love is a wonderful thing :banana:Quote:

Excelent job @ArcticOC
