I know koolance is not the best when it comes to watercooling, however would you think it would be better than air?

Thanks
 
I believe that a koolance would work fine for a prescott, just dont expect to have 1 -1.5ghz overclocks :D
 
the lga 775 socket uses the same heatsink bracket as the s478, it will work fine.

Yes, it's definitely better than air. I have socket 478 2.8E running at 3.41GHZ. If it weren't for my RAM crapping out at me around 249MHZ and 250MHZ, i could probably take it higher.
 
koolance will make decent temps with good a decent OC on a pressy.. get a 3.0E you might get as high as 4.0ghz
 
Can you reccommend me some good koolance stuff? SHould I use a diff block? or the koolance block?

I am totally new to watercooling and I dont want to jack it up

links to some good stuff?

and frozencpu.com has alot of neat stuff.... help!

Thanks :)
 
use the same koolance block it comes with, i suggest the newest 300W block.(koolance blocks work best with koolance,there designed espicially for the koolance unit) When i had my koolance i also replaced all my fans, but making it louder. but it even helped temps better.
 
Got a 2.4 Prescot @ 3.58GHz on a Koolance! (2-2-3-5) :D

It may not be the best WC'ing out there (Cathars Jet Impingment) but its a well rounded, well designed system.

Won a "Must Have" or "Best of the year" or soming on [H]
