My water cooled GTX 280 story.

[Talonman]

temps were in the mid 40's, if i recall correctly. I should be able to confirm the #'s soon as my replacement board comes (found an openbox one on newegg last night for ~$100 - last one died, pwm fried in 30 seconds of linpack).

I've got Q6600 (gtz), and 280gtx (dtek gfx2/unisink) on single loop. D5 pump, TFC 360 rad. My load temps under occt were about 60 deg c according to occt, running at 3.8GHz 1.55V under load.

sorry for the thread jack

edit: i forgot to mention that my loop was never fully bled. it was only up for 2 days. A lot of air has come out since then, so maybe the #'s will improve a little.

No problem Diverge, our rigs are allot alike...

Sounds like you are having some good temps too.

Make sure to post me up a screen shot when you get up and running.

Having all 3 blocks in the 'low resistance' catagory, is helping my pump out, and temps I hope.
I bet an official EVGA 295 block will be made soon.

Go with the flow baby!!

The earlier posts about using Arctic Silver Ceramique over MX-2 on GPU's has me thinking I better keep an eye on my temps. If MX-2 does get too thin on GPU's, so that my block to chip contact would suffer, my temps would begin to climb I would think?

For thoes that think MX-2 gets too thin, is it over time, or right away?

I'm gonna be using IC Diamond if I can get ahold of it. Was gonna order it from Petra's, but when I ordered it was OOS.

Thanks for the posts.

I probably am fine then. I was glad to hear your MX-2 report too.
