Koolance CPU-350 Pictures!

[systemviper]

WOW, Love those Koolance blocks, I'll get me one of them 4sure.

I also just ordered the Koolance Adapter, Intel Socket 1366 for my 330 and 340 blocks. Oh so sweet.

Thanks Dean, love the stuff!

[Hondacity]

december5? thats so long..good thing you guys are in washington.... thanks dean

Both the CPU-350 and CPU-345 are available on our website now

sweeeet, once Skinee gets one of these on his bench you might get me to leave my apogee GTZ for it

[situman]

So will there ever be a different top? Some shy away from acrylic...

[pvtdonuts]

for which block? If you look @ Koolance's site, you'll see that they have a acryl and a acetal top for the 350 and 345

I don't think you need to defend yourself to most of us here.

I'll with-hold final judgment until I see pictures of the internals.

We eagerly await your judgment.

I'm no Koolance fanboy, But I will say that discretion and sarcasm are not just welcome, but generally favored here.

We're all waiting for numbers, Anticipation is pointless without an open mind.

I used to try and keep an open mind, but my brains kept falling out...

Yea, a little bit too much for me.

too much sarcasm can get you banned too...

[Koolance] Dean: you have a good design here, let us have some numbers to go with this and we can have another contender for one of the top spot.
at least now we can say that koolance has improved and is trying to better itself and is listening to consumer request. maybe next you guys could do a contender for the MCR radiator too...

[zlojack]

I must say, that is an impressive-looking block.

Now let's see what it can do in action.

hI Z You getting one to try...?

I've been looking to retire my Danger Den TDX 'cuz it was getting long in the tooth so I bought the CPU-350AC. I usually run BOINC 24/7 and that loads my cpu 100%. I'm sure there are other apps that put a heavier load but that's what I used. Temps were taken using Everest.

See sig for system specs.

Ambient 73F

Load temps

DD-TDX: 59C
CPU-350: 49C

I was only expecting a improvement of maybe 5 degrees but the 10 degree improvement blew my socks off!

For anyone that wants to do some testing we have a small document here. The first page or so is pretty basic, the last part is a bit more specific to the block's internals.

[sniperbob]

That is a great little Doc Dean! thanks for the info!

Thanks for the doc! I've got all my blocks on 1 loop and a few high flow quick disconnects in there. Maybe when I get some more money I'll put the CPU-350 on it's own dedicated loop with just compression fittings. For now I'm very happy with my results.

Your running all those blocks in a single loop with an Exos and quick disconnects...

Your flow has got to be pretty horrendous... Temps?

Temps (link)

I'm using 3/8" ID tubing and I only have a few quick disconnects. Dean said they have 3/8" flow through so resistance is minimal. (link)

The Exos 2.5 is equipped with the PMP-400 (link) I'm not sure how to measure flow rate but just eyeballing it, it looks pretty good. I'm sure if my flow rate was "horrendous" I wouldn't be able to have the temps that I have.

I know this is XtremeSystems forums but I think you can tell from my choice in equipment I'm not as extreme as many of the guys around here are. I'm sure if you follow the doc and use your custom equipment you can achieve better results than I have.
