thanks oldtimer, yes DICE only im cheap.
i couldnt find a good enough "pot" -i even tried a sardine can
but the bottom is still a bit deep, the edges make contact with
the board and not the GPU. i got a toothbrushholder(aluminum
w/ very good mass) but its 1/2 inch too wide. the intel hsf was a good
idea but i doubt the AMD/ATI GPU would like that situation.

Cute solution. I approve.

Intel stock cooler slug pressed out.

Copper tubing, a little sweated in solder around the edges to prevent leakage , A 1/4 inch Plexi mount bracket to hold it in place on the motherboard and a funnel so there is no spillage (all available at you local hardware store) could make a bad assed DICE pot for the NB... It may end up looking like a Moonshine Distillery but it could work.

Ok, I'll edit the original post and place the first and fourth images up. I was just trying to keep from cluttering up the thread with stock bench photos.

lol, well Now I see one, but not the other. I wouldn't worry about it if everyone else can see them. thanks though.

[crazydiamond]

so do we have a definitive list of what benches we'll be running now? i could only find a few links to game demos from that laptop site, maybe im overlooking a link?

went from 60*F here yesterday to 30*F right now (the joys of living in WI) should be able to get some good air results this weekend at least

Same here in the DFW Area, 70* yesterday and 36* right now. I have been thinking about taking my Crosshair III rig out on the back patio for one last dance for 4.6ghz to 5ghz on water. If it blows, it blows. I got a limping P55 rig and a laptop sitting on the back burner to get me by until Thuban unleashes hell upon us.

the closest i could find was a copper cap for pipes at homedepot.
2"diax1.5"height. too small and base didnt have the mass i liked.


thanks for the pics chew* -ill show this to the guys at
the pc-recycling center here. they probably have one like that.
all im familiar with are the grey aluminum ones.

yah they are round grey aluminum with that copper slug in center. It needs to be pressed out.

It was a thought that just popped into mind reading your post. Home Depot Don't have the selection like they used to.

so thats where the copper is!! lol@ the no-intel sign!

you made me go to home depot...

just kiddin bro, thanks for the thought!

[Hedghawg71]

I would have done the same thing. Going to Home Depot/Lowes for anything isn't an issue for me, but my wife says different.

OK this thread has gone on way to long.

I want to see some splat IGP 3d from you guys.

Msimax wants to join the fun, he's here now benching yep you guessed it.

IGP.

Finally, live action! I'm tuned in.

[BeepBeep2]

I've been wondering about the IGP.

It seems I cant go above 1010-ish on it if I want to pass 3D. Of course, that puts me towards the lowest score on the bot. :/ Now I'm not doing LN2 or anything but I'm a bit confused.

As requested simon live from Providence Rhode Island.....

Starring guest overclocker Msimax aka darnell.










1350mhz core through vantage anyone

[BeepBeep2]

Thats insane...I'm thirsty for scores...

Hello Msimax. Where are the Vantage SS's or are you guys still working on the benchtesting?

I have the IGP under chilled water -15C but I just finished the hardware installation so I haven't gotten to the benching yet.

[chew*]

We are taking a nap because neither of us has slept and then gonna play with something different.

I will leave you guys with the carnage and aftermath for now. Maybe a new thread on what we will be working on later depending on how it pans out.

The Asus board proved extremely reliable.....We used it because I hand delivered his giga 890GX when he arrived so he has no time on the board where as he has been working on the asus for a week or so and is familiar with it.

Special thanks to Aaron of ln2cooling.com for letting me test out a prototype NB pot, it rocks


Aftermath.







Carnage.

[charged3800z24]

I should be back in the game soon. I have never done a dry ice run before, so this should be fun. Well I guess I need to find a Ppot first .

Edit: BTW, nice results there guys!

[Titan7171]

I dont have the workspace to even start to prepare for Dice........plus I got small kids in the apartment. Theres no way I can do any extreme cooling on this mobo Simon sent me. I thought we were just going to do some regular testing air/water or even chilled water

I am doing all that I can. Air water etc. That is what I thought we'd do.

ok that sounds good, Im still waiting on the ram.........I want to show results but they will seem to pale in comparison to all the extreme stuff happening.

[crazydiamond]

ya i was just planning on doin what i can, today i will be doin cool air & possibly chilled water if i can rig up my block to nb.. also talkin to my friend who works on cnc machines about making me a lil cheap alu nb pot but im not holding my breath cuz im not sure when or even if he'd be able to do it..

[theoldtimer]

I’d say run what you have at hand be it air, water, dice or LN2 cooling. I think Simon knows that only a few guys can run extreme cooling. It looks to me like chew and Msimax are just trying to see how far this IGP can clock and that’s great I’m interested in knowing how far the IGP can clock myself after all this is the XS forum.
I wouldn’t let it bother me I’ll still get what I can get out of the MB with the cooling I have at hand and I think you guys should also. I’m not trying to tell anyone what to do but how about running the benches I ran in my stock clock benching post? If not let’s make up a list of benches we all would like to bench maybe a total of four or five different tests?

I want to see it pushed to the limit also

Im down for running as many benches as I can.........but I still cant do anything till the ram comes.


I have some ideas for the igp cooling it should be fun though I cant wait to get started

[FlanK3r]

Chew*: congratulations, u beat with your IGP my old PC Athlon 3000+@2100MHz with x1950pro 256MB (stock clocks) at 3D2006 :-D, i had overall score 3720
