Apogee GTZ

skinnee, why is bumping threads an issue (if someone is constantly bumping the same thread every second thats a problem but if a thread that people are interested in falls away whats the point with bringing it back to attention (though admitidly it would be better if it was brought back with new information but ...))

[skinnee]

Wasn't directing at everyone, just some of the recent ones I have seen the questions were answered but the threads were bumped repeatedly after with nothing more than a "bump" post.

[hotdun]

Sorry guys, thought this thread was comedy so I wanted to keep it going. I'll lay off the bumps, I promise...

Of course it went cold... Too bad the actual block probably won't get your CPU this cold....

Now that's funny.......

...and possible true...

Hiw very constructive.

OOooo Interesting, if those Q6600 #'s are correct I may have to pick this up when it comes out.

[skinnee]

Finally, some internal shots.

That article is claiming a .75ºC improvement over an EK Supreme and 1.25ºC over Fuzion V2 at 1.5GPM for both.

Thanks for the pics Rosco! You rocks§§
(I've just rehost them to save bandwidth )

[disruptfam]

we have a new king...

i would like to see some more testing though..

[evil-98]

pics are soo small! but atleast we know what it looks like now

[disruptfam]

yeah... like i said i would like to see some more testing...

i prefer supreme looks wise but if these results are accurate i just cant deny!

[Xilikon]

Look promising but let's wait for some cold hard numbers

[evil-98]

i think there should be a seal between the jet plate and the top
from the drawings it looks like the plate is just seated in plate as well
nothing to keep it from moving. none the less i think the base looks awesome
just curious to why they would make a base a semi pin array and use
a vertical/horizontal jet. i guess the impact surface area would be more even
also dont understand why they would put the channels on the side,
looks like it blocks flow, i guess more turbulence is good. none the less looks
like a pretty awesome design

Just in case you don't read French, Rosco states in his preview that it will be as restrictve as a Storm :/

ouch thats not good to hear :\

Gabe...a GTZ would be a great way to break in my test bench!

Those numbers are SWIFTECH numbers, not independently tested... however I have no reason no doubt their numbers.

Remember Gabe paid for that test...

No, Gabe performed that test. Actually Stephen did but, same difference.

So what?

[Xilikon]

Missed the restriction thing (I can read french but some weird words use threw me off) but like Scott said, so what ? In the Storm days, people is buying them and just adjust the pumping power and loops around that.

[leo_bsb]

ohh, if these numbers are correct I'll change my Fuzion.
The pressure drop looks similar to the ones for a Fuzion V2 with a 6.5mm nozzle, so our current pumps should work OK.
It is not that different from the EK Supreme.

[Sparky]

Some restriction isn't a bad thing, it'll make the people with the RD30 happy to put their pumps to use again Heck even the 18W DDC should do fine, it handled the storm OK.

[iandh]

Good job, although like the EK supreme it looks a bit clog prone with the wrong coolant. Probably a good bet to stick with fuzion or apogee gt/gtx if you are using any dyes.

[pika198]

how come the q6600 is 10c less then then the q9450?...when the q6600 has more volts and is the hot unredisgned quads...

[kazgirl]

Nice to see some figures finally..!!

Anyone notice the 30C ambient if thats what it says......my french isn't that good something about "entree et debit", enter..??? assuming thats the rad air intake temp...???

Seems a high ambient to me...??

So should expect lower temps than those shown..... as well..??

No hang on just saw the eau bit, so thats water in temp then I take it...??? and the "debit" must mean flow rate at 1.5GPM, so is that 30C water in temp and flow rate of 1.5GPM...

Never mind its still a high restriction block meaning I'll need to add a new pump as well.....

I think I'm going to go with the XSPC X20 Delta V2 for now, as its quite cheap, low restriction, and gives pretty good results....... and when I replace my mobo in a month or so maybe I'll add a DDC 3.2 and XSPC top, and then look again at improving the block depending on how well the Phenom will OC on the new SB750 mobos...

Glad I waited though...!!! Look forward to seeing some results when someone gets this though...!!

Can I also just go off topic for a second to say how sad I was to read that Martin is bringing his testing and reviewing to a close....!! I have only recently come across some of the results and his webpage and all I can say is what a fantastic contribution he has made....

I needed look no further than his website to get all the information I needed...!!!

Thanks for your hard work.... I'm looking forward to seeing your QC CPU Block results as well.!!!!!

[Nickel020]

It's 30C water temperature^^

[hotdun]

I know it looks like a 5 year old did this but....here's approx where the GTZ fits in thanks to Martin's Thermalright test chart.
