Lesson 1 dont buy a H5
Lesson 2 Dont get drunk then Oc :)


I spent £70 just cooling the water NVM the water cooling system just so mine stops below 60c @4.3
There is noway i would just SEE how hot it will get before it BSOD.

INSANE!!

don't you have a safety shutdown temp in bios or have you disabled it?

i got an old abit ab9 pro which i've put a limit of 75c on it. mine never goes above 43 but yours is risky temps man.
 
Ok you are cooling your pc with water and you lets it reach over 100c when water at that temperature could melt the tubing and blowing your components to pieces :rolleyes:

I don't think it would blow anything to pieces, particularly on newer CPUs with a number of features to stop excess heat from damaging components.

As for the tubing, it's designed to be used to cool something that could be putting out 200w of heat, I think it can handle 100c.

Seems like a completely pointless thing to do bulldog... most people try and keep their chips as cool as possible, not attempt to see how hot they can make them run!!! :rolleyes:
 
Tubing will be cooler than processor, as there is a temperature drop between cpu core and first contact with water. I've tried something similar, but with a 240 radiator mounted horizontally. I can turn all the fans off for a fairly long time if I don't then run linx.

@OP if you're experimenting with silence, drop the cpu frequency to 2ghz, turn off hyperthreading and disable two of the cores. Undervolt it as much as you can, and try to mount the H50 horizontally. Should have more luck then, though ibt will probably still push it over 100 given long enough.
 
Are you serious ?

yes. it only did it once. my attention was taken away from watching the temps for a few seconds, looked back and 110oC. crashed straight after i noticed; dropped it down to 3.8GHz on stock volts, and now it will max out at 80oC

i can't get a decent temp for 4GHz yet as i need to up pretty much every voltage to get it stable....
