Sad. Thanks to the moderators for letting this topic run though.

Awesome. Thanks for posting this and please pass the appreciation on to Skinnee!

Can you share how high you went on the overclocks?

For the record, I am in favor of rating products based on a set of objective as well as subjective features, but I think that it is important to put things in prospective with respect to the relative...

I found that compressed air cans work great at getting any drops out of tiny crevices in PCI slots, etc.

Also, like Kurz pointed out there's a chance that there could be some conductive residue...

Well, I think that Skinnee has been very generous with his time and has provided a tremendous resource for water cooling newbs like me. His data is first rate and I eagerly await the next...

It seems like you'd end up spending more on the water cooling than the card is worth (which is most likely why it is getting discontinued.) Is there any reason why you don't like the DD product? It...

Yeah I would recommend putting your pump in the bottom (where the uselss 3.5 inch bays are at ) or using a smaller resevoir and putting it alongside the MOBO (under the resevoir,) or using a bay...

Thanks for the pics. I'm pretty sure that I'm going to add a DD fillport on my 800D too exactly as you described. It seems like it would be a pretty easy addition and would certain make it easier...

Exxxxxcellent :clap:

When I first put everything together I thought that the D5 would be plenty for the Swiftech XT and two GPU blocks but Swiftech blocks are pretty restrictive. Is a single DDC going to be that much of...

I wanted to solicit some opinions on this.

Current: I am currently running a Swiftech XT and one GTX 480 (EVGA FTW/Swiftech block) in a single loop with a 120.3 and 140.1 Black Ice GTX radiator...

You can get a small hand held field tester used for reef aquariums for about $30. They measure the total disolved solids (TDS) by measuring conductivity and they are reasonably accurate - not lab...

Oh yeah, I almost forgot - ambient temp is 27C (I live in Texas and it's already getting hot down here.)

OK, see here's the Real Temp 3.0 data. At 175 bclk I was pulling between 54-58c. Cores 1 and 3 (from left to right) are 1-2 degrees cooler very consistently. I ran the CPU up to 1.350 and a 190...

That's right. The radiator is mounted on top with the barbs pointed down. I'll try tilting it and seeing if I can get any bubbles out of it when I get home. What kind of temperatures would you...

So I am new to the water cooling scene and just finished my first build after a lot of lurking and reading on the forums for a couple of months. (Thanks to everyone who posts here regularly - it is...

I would wait a little bit for the Fermi release on 4/6 though regardless of what you are looking at. Nvidia will have to compete in price and/or performance and ATI is likely to lower prices to...
