LOL
I really cannot believe what a difference this upgrade has made......
The pump is the loudest part of the system, and I have secured it down with industrial grade velcro do deal with vibrations, and it is not that noisy.....
The fans area all speed controlled and I have set them to the same sort of volume level as the pump....
Under stress CPU now gets to around45 degrees (after 1 hour priming)..
Its the graphics that are blowing me away
After 3 hours of intense gaming last night the card had gone to a MAX of 49 degrees.....
It would have been circa 80 before......
And I love just looking at it
