what useful info did you possibly get from that?
That its a stupid idea to run a H50 without the fan on a heavily overclocked i7? Thought that was pretty obvious already.

no usefull information, hence the LOL <--read this, perhaps things dont get translated correctly over text!

Yes he knows its pritty obvious but he decided to give it a bash, its up to HIM not you on what and how he does with HIS equipment even if it is possibly damaging.
 
This is stupidity... what was on your mind at the time? lol
If the CPU fails on you, you will not be posting on this forum laughing :p

Yeah. Probably not the boiling point of the water/ethylene glycol mix corsair use though. And not terribly relevant as the liquid was well under the cpu temperature.

So, does anyone have a H50 they dislike enough to sit the copper part on an electric hob on a low setting with it connected to a molex, and report on which part fails and in which order? Maybe strap a fan to the radiator part. I think it probably would be the tubing.
 
I don't see the issue, sure I wouldn't try to but it is his perogative, not mine :).

Like those MIT guys who spent time studying the effects of a tin foil hat. Actually focuses the radiowaves and makes them stronger rather than the intended effect of blocking them! Why anyone would need to know that I don't know... but thanks to MIT we do!
 
i did this once with my 920 c0 and thermalright ultra 120 realtemp 2.80 never registerd tempratures above 100 but when i looked at the base of the heatsink it had the shape of the heatspreader kind of burned into it.
 
To guys calling him a fool - isnt overclocking all about testing equipment to the limit?! Sometimes testing to the limit leads to failures, the risks come hand in hand with the rewards.
