Stock cooling all the way baby!

[TM30]

lol i found some pics of my old FX5800... not very sweet, but effective

[Happy Joe]

OK I was messing with Painshop Pro and realized that I had not yet posted a system pic. Its not really Xtreme (since my mobile died) but it doesn't get over 41C underload even when the room temp is over 29C. Its now regressed to a prelock 2500 at 2.2 gHz and a single fan slk900a.
(EDIT) Got bored at 2.2 pushed it up to 2.4gHz
Enjoy!

Not what I'd call "Xtreme", but it gets the job done.

[black rose]

a0chicken - is the fan hanging by the bolts of the zalman cooler?!

[Troopah]

yeah, how the hell is the fan attached there? :P

[a0chicken]

Oh, sorry.
Yes it is

lol that's some pretty ghetto cooling there, even ripping of the fan of the zalman wtg.

You can get something very similar here for $39.99.

Hi,

I got it from an online electical supplier in the UK callled Farnells. It was expensive but it is typical german quality.

Here is my cooling, works pretty good, but a bit loud. I am at 33c right now. Second picture is how it is now, sleeved and cleaned up a bit.

Looks wicked tho maybe a bit dusty.
You sure got a lot of harddrives in there too never can get enough storage space eh?

[cetoole]

Actually, a day after I took that picture, I redid the system, so it is not dusty now, has full sleeving, much better wire management, as I removed connectors that I don't use from the PSU, and put some heatsinks on mosfets. I have a total of 480gb in that machine, always need more. That thing on top of the case is for my remote control, x10 universal remote with rf for the computer, pretty sweet, and I got it on sale for $5.00. Pictures of before and after are above.

you guys must have serious hearing problem...
when you turn on your comp, you barely won't hear anything even when someone called u...
I've been there...my pc sound like helicopter ...I put fans on my case in everyplace that could hold it...

the question is which is the most effective...most cooler but less noise...that goes for vga card too...

do u guys metered up the noise too?

[Entity_Razer]

well I haven't taken any photos yet since after I installed all the fans and the VGA cooling but I gotta say sound= a problem I can't EVER sleep with my computer on.

But I thought I was going overkill with fans and stuff but you guys are sick

I'll post here my config( cooling config )

On CPU:
Thermalright SP 97
+ 92 mm Enermax fan
Outtake:
2x 80MM coolermaster
On intake
(soon to be permanent)
PAPST 120 mm FAN (WHOOO LOW NOISE!!! )
VGA:
Zalman C version heatpipe cooler
+ Appropriate fan

Soon to be added:
-60mm fan on Mosfets
-80 or 2x 30 mm fans on the RAM
-80mm intake in the front.

[Crankster]

My computer is nigh near inaudible, just the occasional zigs from the harddrive. This is at 2650 mhz btw, it doesn't HAVE to be loud to be effective aircooling.

[Buzz]

just some pics of my pc no extreme ones

[hitek420]

Hey Buzz can you post a picture of the full case from the side, or a closer one of the harddrives in the 5.25" bay?

I was thinking of doing something similar and taking out the bottom drive bay to free up a bit of airflow.

I'll post some pictures of my outdated setup later tonight.

[hitek420]

Nothing much, but it runs cool.
I wish I had a heatsink that could run a bigger fan so I could cut down on a bit of noise .

[XyKo]

How do you people set the wires so neatly? My Antec True 550 wires are everywhere.
