X6800 ES at 4,5 GHz - ON WATERCOOLING! New water WR?
Hello ppl,
Because i'm still waiting for my new custom phase, i started playing today with the X6800 on watercooling. I used water out of the water tap (9 °C) Temps are about 28 °C idle at Windows...
thats probably the most ghetto cooling ive seen, but thats a serious waste of water, unless u recirculate all water by purifier and two filters...

Dont be angry with me :P I'm living right upon a mountain at the black forest (if you know that part of southern germany)... we don't have a canalization, BUT we have a own well-spring (or is it called just "source"?) and a purification plant... so...
the water i dont use runs down the hill - no joke, you can see that little stream running down from where the wellspring is located
And, c'mon, what would you - if you had a waterblock and that CPU, but no rad? - Right, the same...

i actually use well-water too, but mine isnt really "dirty"
it goes through 2 purifiers and 2 filters before it gets to my house... i have a awesome filtration system

sure do , thats where my great great grandfather came from back in the late 1800's when they imigrated to the USA.
reminds me of something i would of done back on the farm where i grew up.
well water and a natural spring a few miles down the road.
gotta love that natural spring water.. lots of iron and ice cold lol.

With -23 °C Core Temp, the CPU booted with 4,8 into Windows (-23°C at Windows) and overclocked there easily to 5,1 GHz (DICE Cooling, but first try with new container, bad contact and only large DICE pieces... reached much lower temps at the secon run... but thermal diode was jammed under -28°C...)
So... Only Sinlge Stage temps to reach 5 GHz, not even cascade for 4,6 GHz...
