Sargatanas, I have the same anti-kink metal spirals... awesome stuff eh

Very nice setup also

xpatar how the block performs ? if you compare it with the D-tek Fusion ?
i need a new block and i can't decide witch on of those two

Well I can't tell about the D-tek Fusion cause I haven't tested it.
The swiftech Apogee GT is simple awesome, it has the same baseplate with Apogee GTX and with my rig running four instances of prime95 at the same time for 10 hours the temps never went over 50 Celcius degrees.
Remember, I got a C2DQ 6600 G0 revision running @ 3.2GHz, 1.3v.
Of course you may have better temps with your rig with better cooling as each rig is unique.
Anyway I would recommend it to you as an excellent cpu waterblock.

Note: I had to remove the passive cooler of my asus maximus formula cause it wouldn't fit at first. It's an apogee GT waterblock so go for an Agogee GTX,
same base plate, better compatibility with new motherboards, excellent performance.

The Apogee GT with bowed base will give you equal or perhaps slightly better than the D-Tek FuZion Rev. 1, however the Apogee is a more restrictive block. The D-Tek FuZion Rev. 2 will give you better temps than the Apogee GT at a lower impedance.

I thought the D Tek was more restrictive

? Especially when you start putting nozzles in it.

ty @ all =)

I made a test, where the D-Tek was better than the Apogee GTX (should be better than GT) bowed and unbowed the same. Unbowed the GTX was very restrictive (~259l/h), bowed it was better. (385l/h). D-Tek had 439l/h without Nozzles and ~350l/h with Quad-split-nozzle. (Loops same always with CPU-Block, a DDC+, Rad, Flowmeter and Tempsensors) Delta was ~29°C with Nozzle in FuZion and 33°C without Nozzle. Apogee GTX had ~35°C bowed and ~38,5°C unbowed.

But that all depends on the quality of the block you get. And I tell you: buy 10 Apogees and you will get 8 different results ^^

xpatar are you using standoffs to hold that SB cooler in place?

Yes I'm using standoffs to secure in place the southbridge cooler, it's
directly placed onto the chip without the use of gasket gap pad.

No case, only hardware. The case is a secret

**Lagaaja** · 05-22-2008, 12:04 AM

Sexy!

**Arni** · 05-22-2008, 01:48 AM

sweet pic

**NoobCake** · 05-22-2008, 01:53 AM

very nice indeed.

What heatsinks are those around the CPU area? (mosfet)

**p2501** · 05-22-2008, 02:01 AM

Black and silver, nice theme you've setup there! Looks sexy!

Which pump will be pushing that Supreme?

They look like the stock ones from any 780i/790i board. I could be wrong.

Damn sexy none the less.

I think that is EVGA or XFX 790i MB.

Steffen go go go.

**sargatanas** · 05-22-2008, 03:47 AM

it's the stock heatsink.
changed my loop again, now without metal spiral.

sry, seems like something is reflecting on the plexi >.<

Wow, man i love your machine.
Congrats to this lovely build!

**Colossous** · 05-22-2008, 06:17 AM

Thats one sweet build there Lagier

**dualbrain** · 05-22-2008, 06:24 AM

Awesome! Check your PM

Thanks to Steffen for telling me!

**bundymania** · 05-22-2008, 06:51 AM

i should make a patent on my water color creation some month ago...

**Lagier** · 05-22-2008, 07:03 AM

big thx guys for positive comments

@dualbrain
check your PM :>
