Just looking for people who are using this case. I just picked up one and I'm starting to tune it. I'm fairly satisfied with the results so far and I LOVE THE 2 HOUR INSTALL. Dang, thats fast! Of couse, I've been building systems for about 10 years so I tend to know what I'm doing, but 2 hours!! Nice job Koolance.

Anyway, back to the point. If you can, please post your temps, cpu and current cpu speed, water block you are using and finally, if you have mod'd anything and what you mod'd. I'll start by posting what I'm running. Please note all the temps are before tuning and before burn in.

Koolance pc3-725
Koolance 3\8 cpu waterblock
Koolance nv2 gpu cooler
Rig is an a8n-sli, Opteron 170 @ 2500 and 1.37, Crucial Ballistix 2 gigs @ ddr 500 and 2.65v, 6800 ultra @ 442\1196

Before burnin of the Artic Silver I'm running idle\load 38c\44c and the gpu is at 49c\??c. Seems a little high to me, I want to reseat the cpu cooler and, of couse, let the Artic Silver set.
 
PC3 724

Intel 950 @ 4GHZ Storm block 3/8 idle 24-26 fan speed 6 Load After gaming 2 hours 34-36 - fan max

ATI x1800xl Maze 4 3/8 26-28 idle fan speed 6 36-39 full load max fan Max CCC O/C on memory and core.

This is a customers machine and these are the temps reported when I tested. The customer is reporting same temps

Because you stated you built many machines I don't want to offend you . But I preferr
ceramique to arctic silver 5
 
Yup.. I'm beginning to wonder if the block I choose is the wrong choice. I find that hard to believe since its the Koolance spec'd block for this system, but anythings possible.. I've switched from the artic silver to whatever it is Koolance is shipping with their systems. I'm curious about the difference in results.
 
Im using this case with my 830 not oc'ed. im just using the koolance cpu block and nothing else right now. the temps i get with the koolance on auto is about 45c idle. if i put the koolance on max my cpu idle goes down to 32c idle . i bought a koolance gpu cooler for my x1900xt. i have not decided if im going to install it yet. i really do like the system.

What coolant are you using with your system? im thinking about using other coolant if i put the gpu cooler in the system. do you have your gpu in the loop by using the splitters and the method in the manual?. i really wish they made the gpu coolers with the 3/8 instead of the 1/4. any input you can give me would be appreciated i will let you if i install the gpu cooler when and if i install it.

Thanks
Robert
 
its not the block its the pump.... need more flow/pressure boss! check out my temps, i use koolance blocks but a DDC pump on the processor.
 
I used an older koolance system with 1/4 inch hoses and it was always up to the task cooling a A64 3200@2.4 (38C loaded) and a oc'd 6800 GT(never went higher than mid 50's IIRC).
