MagiCool XTREME NOVA 1080 ( 9 X 120mm) Radiator

[sargatanas]

do u have any leak probs?
seen that the magicool is for 2bar, the pump 3,5

Anybody know if this Rad can be bought in the UK ?

I found one place but there stuff is always overpriced

I was considering the possibility of strapping one on the side of my stacker 810, with 9 YL12SL, a sunbeam rheostat and two DDC3's with a double top.
Marci handed me enough arguments to go with PA120.3's, one at a time as I can afford it, but this sort of revives the idea for me, it's certainly a lot cheaper than 3 PA120.3's.

3 MCR 320's would work almost as well and be much cheaper than the PA's. Although, with the PA's and MCR's, you'd likely only need two to equal this rad.

No leak problems at all. I have used Teflon tape as additional sealing for all screwed connections though.

With full respect, Waterlogged, I would disagree with you regarding MCR 320's vs PA's unless you use two pumps due to the high level of pressure loss on MCR's. And I would definitely disagree regarding 2x320 vs 1080, there is no way they are equal nor for the total restriction nor for the total dissipation surface/total dissipated power.
2 PA's could be close, being almost twice more expensive (here in the USA at least) but not MCR 320's IMO.

OK, as promised, pictures for 4.4 Ghz

Well, i was playing with my wolfdale until i killed it.

This is a dualcore mind you, so let me tell you how badly the voltage scales.

On my Wolfdale, i was able to pull about 4.0ghz @ 1.4Vcore and have it hold prime95 for hours.

4.1ghz took about 1.47Vcore
4.2ghz took about 1.51Vcore
4.3ghz took 1.57Vcore
4.4ghz not possible
4.5ghz i wished but not possible.

Chip died after 1 month being loaded @ 1.57Vcore 24/7. :T

Higher overclocks are just too hard, the voltage doesnt scale as nicely as you wished it was.

Interesting



And also ... folks did 4856.5 MHz on AC http://www.hipro-tech.com/images/hip...MHz_on_air.png, of course with crazy 1.68V, but still ... it handles such voltage.
