Liquid Cooling Myths

[NaeKuh]

And of course people like Naekuh who want a <1C delta !

Yeah, then there's Naekuh But, he's on a planet of his own, hehe. I am talkin the general populace here, that excludes him.

Soz Naekuh, had to.....

u bastards!!

i stand to pee, and i bleed RED BLOOD!!! dammit! im as male human as they get...
^ THIS IS NOT A XS MYTH!!!!! or thats what i keep telling skinnee!!!

Stephen. Im pretty shure you are wrong on this one.
All where i look ive seen less wattage with cooler chips. The GTX480 was extreme in this sence and even watercooling it vs aircooling would decrease the wattage by quite an amount. Also ask the Ln2 guys, i think it was Chew* that stated that even with 2v on the cpu it didnt really put out more wattage than on stock voltage and roomtemp.

actually u both are correct...

Putting on my serious hat...

What your saying is that by watercooling the die itself draws less power.
Well that has to do with overall interference from heat and materials. ie.. the super conducting metal we all look for.

As things get hotter, more energy is lost via HEAT.. adur... remember physics.. nothing is for free.
This is where ur seeing all the voltage leak... its HEAT.. and a LOT OF IT.

Now in chew's case... and dont get me wrong.. im not anywhere near chew's level in knowledge.. i think its because a physical limitation inside the arch which prevented the cpu from scaling any higher.

Once again physics... u can never get something for free. and you must always play the game.. and no u can never cheat!
