It came packed in polostarine (i think that is how you spell it!) so all I had to do was just fit it all in back to were it came from. There is no damage on the box what so ever, And the frist guy I spoke to about admitted that is was strange. He dosen't remember that damage being there when he...

I don't! :p I think I got I bit over excited with the cut & past.... Sorry

Ok its back. And its in worse condiction then when I sent it to them. Bastards! The pump is cracked, the rad is completely buggered. So anyone got any suggestions? And any suggestions for a custom build cooling system that would good for my spec (in sig) Thanks all! Xen

Is that talking from experince mohammedtaha? The Package should be back here with in a couple of hours and I we see what magic damage has appeared on from when I sent it back! Note to self: Take pictures of stuff at post office before you send it back! :rolleyes:

ummm,. why didn't i think of that..... But more to the point when I posted it back to them there was no thremal paste on it. And when I told them that they changed there minds and said that the Rad fins were bent...... Sounds fishy!

I only paid 60 pounds for it. If some one can find me a decent one for under that i'll be inpressed!

Ok I RMA that cooling system and I have just got off the phone with them ( eclipsecomputers ) And they are not going to refund or replace because, wait for it......... there is still thermal paste on the copper block! The warrenty is now void! wtf! Anybody got any ideas on this??

NB = extra note... I think... dewhite I have the smae mobo as you, except with a winnie 3000 I have updated the BIOS to 1.5, I think I will go for that kit and see what happens!

Ok, I may well be well of the plot here but here it goes... Is the machine overclocked at all? I had a problem with an old mobo that the PCI lock wasn't working so I was overclocking my soundcard and it used to make well funky sounds. Just a thought!

Looking at replacing it with one of these Asetek WaterChill KT03-L20 Water Cooling Kit I know its an entry kit and that is all I want. Will this be better than what I have got? NB: Now running 48 idle

Temps below 46 oC idle would be nice... I was going to do abit of overclocking just for fun, as in I would o/c then benchmark then go back to stock. BTW: My stock Hs/f that came with my proc cools better than this! Whats wrong or is the kit just shit?

Sod it! Its not making any diff to my temps its going back tomorrow and I am just going to go for a custom kit.... Is 1x 120mm Rad with fan enough to cool and AMD64 3000 winnie?

Geez one quick reply thanks! I see in your sig thermaltake... which model? I have a Aquarius 2 and it sucks bad.... Trying to improve on cooling abit. My is Rad external so I want it pulling, why is it like this :)

Just a quickie.... Is it better to have the fan on the rad pushing air though or pulling it though thanks in advance! SOLVED -- Downloaded a modded version of the 1.8 bios and the load temp is a more reasonably 31. But still going to change it to an WaterChill :). Bios can be got from here...

My specs are in sig... can anybody recommend an newbie water cooling kit? That still offers decent temps, I was thinking about the Coolermaster Aquagate... I don't really want to start overclocking my new AMD without decent cooling. I am open to suggestions? Thanks in advance!
