I have searched and searched but can not find any reviews on this at all. I want to know how these compare to the Intel stock coolers. I have P4 3.0 GHZ Xeon "nocona" CPU's in my server and want to quiet them down a bit...aweful loud. Xtreme Systems do a review please!!
THERMALRIGHT SI-9XV CPU COOLER
And I want to use these fans...a low 12 DB.
EVERCOOL AL9025-4LD2 LED
Please move this if I have posted in the wrong forum. Thank you.
I think if you read some threads about shuttle PC's you'll find info on it.
XP-90C would be a better way to go probably.
Again I have P4 3.0 GHZ XEON Nocona CPU's (S604) not 478 or 775 chipset . The XP-90C will not work and is not an option. I want to use a heatsink designated for Xeons and not something I have to juryrig.Quote:

you're welcome too.
You weren't really helping me there. There are few heatseaks made for the xeons compared to other CPU's and that is not one of them. I like the combination above because the fans still move enough air and it is much more quiet than what I am running now. What I want to know is the temperature difference is warrant enough to buy it all.
I think no-one would be bothered enough to buy some heatsink and do a review for some guy. You sound pretty demanding.
Yeah really, nothing xtreme about that! :slapass:Quote:

Well I guess I was wrong...I had assumed the xtreme systems was the best place to get the answers that I needed. I didn't demand anything. If read carefully, I asked...even said please.
Dude the answer to your question is one post up.. as for exact numbers.. You are going to have to waitQuote:

Room temps are 24.5C
CPU #1 runs 57C
CPU #2 runs 58C
in contrast with the Xp-90c
Room temp 24.5C
CPU #1 runs 51C
CPU #2 runs 50C
Jebus some people are hard to please... what next you want max overclock numbers?
Stop your gloating and moaning. You'll get any type of technical answers + help here, if you want to BUY that heatsink send it to someone from XS to make a review for you then by all means go ahead, but that defeats the point doesnt it. No one is gonna spend money for YOU just because you dont want to spend your own.Quote:

I got one of them for my dothan. Decent enough, now it cools one of my Prestonias (other has a 9500 on it), with some decent airflow it's good enough with no directly attached fan. Just have a bottom PSU fan, it needs airflow in that direction.
Hey you have the same mobo as me - ****ing Nintek sold me a faulty stick and said the board didn't support ECC.Quote:
2 GB Ram ECC - 4 512 MB sticks
ASUS NCCH-DL mobo
Stop being an ass. Alot of times sites will get things to review for free, hw sites dont usually pay. He asked nicely.Quote:

Like yours (just kidding). :banana:
I swear some days i think you guys act half your ages...:stick:
and no prob.. anytime..
Cool-lookin cooler, though... :D
Id say get a 90C and go to home depot and buy a set of mirror clips to hang mirrors on the wall,,
Flatten them out with a hammer, put backplate on it and make spots where holes will go, drill em out and thats it, viola..
OOOOh wait Xeons have 4 mounting holes dont they,
EDIT: NVM then, 90C rocks dude I know theres a way to mod it to fit, ill mod my 90c forever, for any cpu I own from here on out..
Nice work NN..
Can you show me pics of yours.Quote:

wait wait, lets ignore nn_step somemore
oh! oh! and lets not thank him either!
easy now boys.
@nn step,
think of making a plexi shroud to go from the one sink, the other, and then to exaust fan? could probably help with case temps a bit, and look pretty sweet.
Good advice.. I might have to find some time to do that..Quote:

I was under the impression the 90c was best in the business at hat it does? is it not?
SI-9XV is no way in hell better than the 90c.. but there are alot larger coolers that would better than the 90c but none of them fit.. atleast on my mobo..Quote:

nn_step, I have an Asus PC-DL Deluxe and would like to put 2 xp90c's on the xeons, could you tell me how you mounted them and which ones you used? I see 2 models on Thermalrights website. I've tried searching for the info, but can't find anything about mounting xp90c's on this type of setup. Thanks in advance for anyhelp.Quote:

"Best cooler" is in the eye of the beholder...... I'm not doubting you but do you have evidence to back up your claim?Quote:

a Very good ruler, a Small Drill, and a hell of alot of patience.Quote:
