    yeah its high. But I have done a lot of checking on it and as long as it is kept cool it should be ok and last a year or 2. I usually run it at 4.4 ghz at 1.385 v I just wanted to see how high I could go and keep it stable.

    This is What I have been working on for liquid cooling!!!

    I have done a lot of research on coolants and everyone says distilled water and that is the best one that doesnt hold heat. it gets below freezing with distilled water because the pump is moving 365 gallons per hour and that is keeping the water from freezing. but condensation gets really bad...

    I thought about what the window would do to the efficency and I put a dual pain plexiglass window in that is 2 inches thick and it is surrounded on the inside with insulation foam. so if any thing the efficency would be better, I would think temps are 9c idle and 15c load. all tubes are...
