IPAD pfffft, bye bye

I'll keep you posted, at the mo i have 3 cores running 59-61c and 1@ 81c :eek: this is on auto volts (showing 1.2v, cpuz) hoping its just the TIM on the IHS and not under it, no biggie either way.

Edit: thats running IBT

Got the classy's to 1245MHz ones at 1.2v other at 1.87v(dont know why its different) at 110% power limit, hoping to reach 1350 with voltage tool and modded bios. Temps top card @ 71c, bottom 62c

Looks lovely Nick, the board is fantastic. Your gpu temps are pretty good. I wont sully the forums with any pics of mine just yet. It's still a mess of blue cables from my old Z77 setup. And im also thinking of purchasing a corsair 540. My current shinobi xl is woeful for airflow. Either that or send my lian li a70f off to get powdercoated and modded. That will probably cost the best part of £200.00. But before that i need to get a little bit of oc'ing going on the 4770k. Only bought it as my old 3770k was rubbish.
 
Beautiful case mate, i love lian li's. I have this one sitting in a cupboard.

It will fit a few 480 rads in the top via modding. But the bare aluminium internals look dire. An excellent case for cooling, my current shinobi xl is woeful. A good fart would generate more airflow lol. But it is a nice looking case. Im a fan of understated cases, no bling or lights for me.
 
Very nice build, them 780's are crying out for blocks.

Take a trip down to your local powder coating store and they will sort you out.
 
My local powdercoater is a bit of a rough and ready type fella. More used to doing gates and garden furniture. Tbh im not sure if id entrust him with a case as delicate as the A70F, it's quite flimsy frame wise when broke down. Also it would need a few holes cut in the mobo tray for cable management. Bitfenix got this very well with the xl. Over 30mm behind the mobo tray, but like a lot of their cases, front air intake is practically zero.
 
Decided to do a few updates and improve the cooling, also getting ready for gpu waterblocks, so no, its not all for the cpu!! After reading reviews of the rads they are comparable to a 60mm thick equivalent which is good for this case although expensive.

few updates, couldn't get the 2nd 240 in the bottom, got the hole cut ready, need to cut out bottom 2 pci slots and then its gonna be tight, very tight and need lots of 90 fittings to make it work but that will happen when the gpu blocks arrive. and those XSPC AX rads are very nice indeed. And obviously the outlet pipe from cpu block to the 360 is just temporary
