ocz cryo-z news?

[DaMulta]

It was really easy to bypass the controller. I did it in a matter of a few minutes. Just need a screw driver.

I have no idea on how to do that....no idea at all.

Can you leave the temp read out?

[DaMulta]

Well I turned it on and it fired right up tonight. No on and off crap Hmmmm


Anyways

Found it here
http://coolerexpress.com.tw/en-dual-2cpu.htm


And it says
Multi-function Control card : 1. Auto and manual modes 2. Overload power down protection


Now how would you wire it for manual mode?

This is how it is wired at the moment

Hey I never seen this little review before

Specifications of the OCZ Cryo-Z

The system comes equipped with R-507A refrigerant (known as “Forane” or “Suva”) which is a 50/50 mixture of R-125 and R-134a. This is a superior design decision, as Forane is a much better refrigerant than many of the plausible alternatives and slightly better than the R-404A used by the competing Prometia Mach II GT. The gas is stored in a tank which dominates the unit’s interior. The remainder of the unit’s real estate yielding to a small fan/rad combo, a ZEL GQY70AD compressor, and the electronics.

You have two options: either RMA the unit or build one of these to fix the problem:


Patent Pending

Connected this splitter on the mobo and then one leg to the Cryo-Z and the other to the case switch.

When the CryoZ temps reach -30oC turn the pc on manually by hitting the case switch

Done.

Can this method:

Guys make it simple.
1) Buy the unit;
2) Send email to C.Computers assuming that they are not reliable for any shipping problems with the unit and you will be in charge to do this with a 3rd party shipping company;
3) Get DHL to pick it up for you with a pre-paid waybill that has to be printed in C. Computers or you should mail them the label before DHL pick it up;
4) On shipping instructions make sure you ask them to handle with care like a fridge without tilting the unit (use ground shipping as air will mess up with gas inside the unit);
5) Insure it and if it comes busted go after DHL for your money back...

Simple and efficient.

be used with the OCZ retailer?

Not anymore :-(

I really want one of these, as it's the only commercial product in my price range. Guess I will have to get lucky and snatch a used vapo/prommie from ebay.

[Jor3lBR]

Yeah I will buy my second one just to cool the North Bridge

[rambler358]

Has the quality improved on these units? The reviews I've seen so far indicate poor QA and build quality on them. I also don't see a retention plate available yet for the Core i7 chips.

[faster3200]

Hmmm... I had planned on going crazy on WCing for my birthday but maybe I will take a road trip to Cali and pick up this bad boy instead.

Can you comment on the build quality of your unit?

And anyone know if a 1366 (Core i7) mount adapter is available for this?

[NoX]

Are there any plans to add a distributor in SoCal?

[Jor3lBR]

where the insulation for not to short out

slip some heat shrink tubing over wire then solder

That was just a naked pic to show people where to solder the wire legs... People should isolate wires thats comon sense.

duniek has made a mount

Would these be any good converting to a water chiller? Maybe I should just convert my jin unit into a chiller, but since I have no idea of what I'd be doing I like the idea of messing this up better.

[sdumper]

Dude just buy a chiller off of ebay it would be cheaper....
