erm, yes, yes it has. Its been proven many times, theres thermal/fluid engineering principles on it, for gods sake. The question is HOW MUCH, not IF. 3/8ths, imo, is about the sweetspot for usability vs performance with modern gear.

lol at this thread, eh TN, you did noticed he mentioned the pump overclocking, yes? Hilarity... does mention the low noise though, which is admirable - my main aim for watercooling at any rate.

1) isnt the aquagates pump built in too? 2) its 2" of air and aluminium, and the base is only 1/4" thick max.

Erm, 6 blocks are going to do BETTER in a half inch loop, theres overall less restriction. Man, some of these 'low flow' people are completely oblivious to science. Before you jump down my throat, if i was watercooling again id run 3/8ths.

A second radiator would improve temps considerably at that noise level/fan power.

dob him in!!!!11

As long as you follow the instructions to the letter, and be careful, no reason why it should be hard. That kit should perform excellently, as its a great pump, a top class block and a dual fan rad ;)

Check for leaks (obviously you have, but check the actual AGP slot) and check for thermal contact. You may have to reseat your gpu. sure its not a driver issue etc?

Noones mentioned the fact that your water temps are pretty high given your ambient, that ive seen. Your idle water temp shouldnt be that much above the ambient air temperature (ie, <2 deg C) Of course, your sensor could be off that your measuring water temperature with. Post some pic's of...

You've got a dangerden RBX block, which i believe has some kind of jet plate? (correct me if im wrong, i cant be arsed looking) If thats the case, go pump > cpu because you want the pressure to go through those wholes unrestricted. I think. lol :P

:) true that wow, 177 posts, i didnt think id been here that long... jesus, i whore forums :D

proj·ect ( P ) Pronunciation Key (prjkt, -kt) n. A plan or proposal; a scheme. See Synonyms at plan. An undertaking requiring concerted effort. I dont see how its 'hardly a project'... ive seen people put a few cold cathodes in and some fans and call it more than that... nice...

I tried it and found no difference in cooling - over time it seemed to get hotter - but then, i have the ducting mod which might make a difference... I'll try it again just to see :)

I cant see any difference at all? :confused: i think im blind ;p

Nice work, i can see people using this as a stand point in the future. And hey, you got to post pictures of that l33t kingston ;)

The difference between AMD and Intel platforms is so much that anything between the two almost irrelevant.

Did i get ripped off ;)? 50x5x1200mm length for $35NZ, which is around $22USD. This was second hand, i thought it was a good price. Just wondering what your prices are over there, they're very steep new here. Id say theres enough copper to make 10 full blocks.

Its quite probable that your corsair is holding you back. Ive heard there are issues with some runs of corsair and the NF7-S - my brother has the same problem.

Id have to say its been done a few times over by now :) heres a linkie for you - link

IOW? god i hate the internet sometimes :>

Yeah, its fine ;) thats what it was made for! it cant rub off, as its a dye and impregnates into the plastic (vinyl is a plastic remember), so no rubbing off should occur, unless you actually rub the vinyl off. Ive used it before, and it works great.

Reckon, good times for all i say. Hes probably sitting there on his ass at home pissed off that noone is around to talk to, his lack of friends has left him at home making lame remarks on an internet hardware forum. Hell, im pro-life, but since he doesnt have a life, im not pro him ;) Nice...

Well, at stock this would be true, but not at overclocked speeds ;)

lolest oc'ing thread ever - i love it when people say they overclocked and they've just put their systems at stock...

Dropped mine 2-6 deg :> how does it work?

Both of my leadtek Ti4200s have snow on the pixel shader test. One has never been overclocked.

I think its a week 51 XP 3000+. But then, you're just being lazy, and just pasting a product code.... thats like walking up to someone without greeting them. NASTY!

Ive lost count how many times ive written this :( Basically, i have jerkiness issues in gaming etc. In bf and UT2k4, basically anything direct3d, i get tearing when moving my mouse quickly... In cs, if i have m_filter 0, i get the massive jerks when i move my mouse sideways. Yes, ive...

Yeah, its pretty much true... try sisoft sandra, sticking the XP1800 beside a 1.8ghz p4, or an xp2400 beside a 2.4 pentium... the higher it gets tho, the worse it is - a 3200+ isnt close to a 3.2ghz p4, as said before. I think they were running out of XP architecture so they just kept going ;)...

The people that are worse are the ones that actually have to ask if the duron is faster... :rolleyes:

lol, thats the fastest card you can buy today... what are you going to do, downgrade ;p And yes, FX's arent really worth the money. Get a standard A64 or a mobile if you're an overclocker.

You could try 1.8 and see if it passes prime.

wow, this went OT pretty quick haha Ive got an old 70's stz multimeter, i really should get a new battery for it... which i might just do today :)

Hmm... is 11.75v a bit on the low side for for a 12v rail? Under load it drops to 11.65 at times... Im getting some chunkiness in games, trying to track down what it is exactly. enermax 350w psu - rig in sig. My gf's comp also has an enermax, hers puts out a fair bit of heat when under...

Yeah, i probably would. What vcore are you at atm?

Aprils fools... [ditzy blond chick] Thats so... like, unbelievably yesterday!?![/ditzy blond chick]

Not neccessarily, but its probably not worth it. You'll more than likely experience system instability and it wont run as it should - things will be sluggish at times because of it, because your system will have to recalculate the results to get proper results, as errors are no good ;) If my...

49 deg is pretty mean. If its still passing prime, try doing some gaming. If it keeps its own in gaming, you could try pushing it a little higher :) Seems like you've gotten a pretty nice chip :)

The highest one is the right one. The asus probe tool doesnt use the LM90, where as speedfan does, and thats how its more accurate.

Try 1.85v, do the prime test. Also, use speedfan to monitor temps, the asus probe isnt accurate for temps :) If it goes over 55 deg C, get worried ;)
