I have an evga 680i motherboard with the latest BIOS flashed. I had purchased 6 identical Seagate 320GB SATA II drives for 0+1, but one of them came with a damaged PCB, so I decided to build the array with 4 drives while the damaged one was RMA'd. That went fine and I got everything working on...

You can probably get a little bit more performance than koolance with the frozencpu prebuilts, but it's still a lot of money

Read up one post...

I decided to go nuts and get 3 delta FFB1212EHE fans for my radiator. Hopefully they can run pretty slow on a PWM controller because I don't want them on full power all the time. :p Though I do almost always wear headphones. Lets see how 3x190cfm does with this setup. :D

Bump. :p It looks like I could fit another 2x80 radiator into my case, but would that even be worth it? I don't seem to have the space for another pump, and would it even be worthwhile to stick a 80mm radiator onto the loop I have?

I hadn't thought about it, actually, but presently I'm using Fluid XP+. The cooling ability shouldn't be that bad compared to water and I'm not the keenest on using coolant.

I don't really have room for another radiator in the case, and I'm trying to keep everything enclosed if possible, hmmm My res is the tank-o-matic. I've actually got it feeding into the pump through 1/2" already, just because it was easier than converting the pump on both ends. I don't...

Are you talking about the Vapochill Micro? That's not watercooling, it's phase change jr.

Ok, so, no on the RAM and go 1/2". Anything in parallel or just make it a straight series thing? Also, for curiosity's sake, what would it do to split that 1/2 into multiple 1/4 lines at the end if I were to include the RAM? Dammit, OCZ, why couldn't you have used G1/4" holes :p One last...

I redid the paste and now it tops out around 60C under load. :D

It happened before I could even get all 4 primes running torture test. I was amazed how quickly it shot up to what I think is probably a dangerous temperature. When you stop the torture test, the temperature falls off down to its idle almost instantly, sometimes dropping 6-7C inbetween one...

Those temps were with it pushed up from 9x to 11x, so yeah, it was. What am I looking for in the pattern? An even layer across the block? As for applying the TIM, I heard one idea of putting some on the center of the IHS and letting the block spread it out, but I've normally just spread it...

It's the Dtek Fuzion. I heard it was supposed to be pretty good but also have a fairly low restriction.

I've got a Danger Den D5 or whatever equivalent pump and a Black Ice Xtreme GTX 360. 3/8" tubing. I want to cool a QX6700 (Dtek Fuzion), 2 8800 GTXs (Danger den), a 680i northbridge (danger den), and possibly the OCZ Flex RAM if it turns out that's worthwhile. Is this a good idea? What order...

Yeah, I was afraid of that. I cleaned off what I could find, but I think some got under the waterblock, and this being the BFG 8800gtx, I don't have a tool to get under there. :\

I was using fluid xp+ in my watercooled computer I'm building. I noticed a small leak on the video card during leak testing but I dried it up and fixed the leak (slightly loose connection). Since Fluid XP+ claims to be non-conductive and there didn't seem to be much that leaked out I didn't...

I tried them one at a time. One of them didn't display anything and the other that originally had the issue is still doing the same thing. Now it's gotten worse, the computer won't even turn on. It comes up for a brief second and then shuts off. This seems really bad :( I hope something...

Hello, ------- long background info I just went all out on a new system. I got an evga 680i, a QX6700, 2gb of DDR2, a thermaltake 850W, and 2 watercooled BFG 8800gtx's. My watercooling system is a DD D5 pump, a Black Ice GTX Xtreme 360, a tank-o-matic, and CPU and northbridge coolers as well as...
