I did it!

I'm watercooled! :)

This has been a project a LONG time coming. Way too long. It stalled out many times over the past 3 years. Yes, 3 years. But, its finally done.

I'm working on Prime stability tests now, going for a higher overclock.

I'll leave you with these numbers:

Previously, at 1.26v at 3.53ghz - 85*C / 185*F
Watercooled at 1.26v at 3.53ghz - 55*C / 130*F

Hooyah.

I'm now at 3.8ghz at 1.36v. And I'm testing fully stable: 2 hours so far. :p Max temps has been 61*C according to RealTemp.

Its not the most innovative or the highest tech loop in the world. Its a CPU only loop, and its along the lines of my oriingal idea. The idea is to be completely encased within the case, leaving everything in its stock locations. Very minimal case modification, with full access to 4 or 5 drive bays. I have succeeded. :D

Pictures to come when I get them uploaded.
 
I haven't loaded pics off the camera, but here's a shot you might enjoy.

3.8ghz from my E7200 (2.53ghz) after 4hours Prime stable

Ladies and Gentleman, may I present to you.... 4 Gigahertz!

It took every bit of 1.44v Vcore to get there, but I did it. Its an E7200 that was originally clocked at 2.53ghz, and now we are at a full 4.0ghz.

I feel like Doc Brown. I want to run through the streets shouting 1.21 Gigawatz! 88 miles per hour! YEEEAAAAAAAA!

PS: Check the time. 4 o'clock in the morning. My wife was relentless this morning, in good humor. She couldn't believe I was awake at that time knowing I had to wake up at 6:30am for work. I know I'll be paying for it, but I'm riding the high.
 
damn nice... 4ghz 7hrs stable in orthos!

I was running at 4ghz on my e7200 but the voltage increase to go from 3.6 to 4.0 was a lot and not worth it in the end regarding heat. but you're water cooled so my hats off to you.
