- Start date
it will be on a separate loop... I have a singe rad and an L20 sitting around in a box... and I though y not...
my abit p35 runs at around 48*C (summer in greece, room temp ~ 32*C)
hey pinkfloyd.. could give me an estimate of temp diff u saw on your system?
tnx
something else.. Don Yewen... I take it you work for ocers...
any chance of bringing back more swiftech products..?
i am trying to get a VGA stealth rev3 but I cant anywhere...
even newegg dont have it

wow now that is what I call service 
lol
just make sure you get rev.3
something on the downside is that I am currently in Greece.
I'll be up in Aberdeen mid September, so it may take a while before my order gets through..
but yeah get some if you can... I am sure other ppl would want them as it is a very good product.. just hope the price is competitive to EK waterblocks, as most ppl tend to choose them for maximum cooling.
imo they are kinda lame... I mean who are they kidding with that wave core design..
anyways... this is just an opinion.
good luck with swiftech... hope all turns out well

ok.. first of all lets make something clear...
I have nothing against EK waterblocks.... I like them pretty much myself as well.
as about all the things you 've stated about swiftech and EK production lines... I am with you on this as well.
now... to make my case...
1.About the Supreme being the best... well they are other equally if not better blocks out there. Enzotech is offering a very good performance and a very solid build.
I am personally using the D-tek and couldn't be happier (the 3rd block I am trying)
now... my complains was about the gfx blocks...
if EK was offering something similar to their cpu block base design then no problem..
but come on... to believe that these 4 waves in the middle actually offer much surface area.. well... I am sorry but that is like underestimating my inteligence.
since gpus give out more heat than the cpu.. how can you accept a lock that is has by far an inferior design to a cpu block.
I will admit that having a full surfave block that cover core,mems and volt regulators is the best. but I am sorry EK's block is a pure commercial product imo.
take a moment to think of what I've said... and you'll see that I am right on this.

Marcsay.. tnx for that bit of info... it's exactly what I needed.
Wja... Iam afraid I am still gonna disagree..
now I don't know what you are goingto accept as proof but I am afraid the only thing I have to offer you is my thoughts.. ten it is a]up toyou touseyour intelect and draw your conclussions....
ok here we go...:
firstly let me ask you... from all the things you've read about blocks...
...is it better to spray the water directly ontop of thecter of the core..?
to my knowlede.. Yes!!!
is the cooling efected by the spray pressure...? again I would say Yes!!!
now you say that this is a big 400gr of coper being subjected toquite a big amount of water... (high volume capacity)
use your imagination a bit and picture this....
use the wave pattern allong each side.... left and right.. ontop of the memories location,
and use something like a diamond shaped verticaly orientated center mass for the core.
put the inlet directly on top of it... and the outlet top side(prettymuch where it s now)
wouldn't that be something much better?
To conclude... All Iam really saying is to implement to cpu block technology to the gfx block design..
I am sorry I cant draw you a picture but I dont even have a computer running at the moment...(desided to respray the interiorso it's all in pieces)
what do you say...?
since there is nothing like that out there... I made the decission to sacrifice the memory cooling(passive air) for better core cooling.
let me put it this way.... if there was a square copper block... with 6 x2mm thick waves... would you buy it for your cpu... and furthermore... would you try to convince me that it's the best block ot there???? I seriously doubt it.
respectfully yours
Greg

hey Wja I dont know if you are still subscribed to this thread... is just wanted to say one last thing...
MCW30 is a Joke!!!!!!
you did mentions that is was a plastic cap over a copper base... but I thought you were just being ironic... I mean they are all like that...
but when I finally got it into my hands and opened it... Jesus!!!!
this is just taking the ****... who on earth do they think they are kidding???
imagine that i prefered to use the XSPC vga block instead!!!!
I amjust left speachless over swiftech's block!!!
what a dissapointment!!!
First chance I get I am ordering the Enzotech (chipset version).
How about you.. did you order yours?
did you have the chance to try it out?
any good?

cool.. looking forward for your measurements
as about the chipset I guess it would have a fan if it needed it.
still.. it went down to 40 from 48 and that's with the fan barely spinning.
I remoded my whole case... so I thought of adding water to the mb to be the best and cheapest upgrade I can do.
next is getting something for my gfx...
either a big passive heatsink or a full block... will see what my wallet will deside.
being summer and all.. priorities have changed.
I'll post some pics tonight.

I guess you are right....
here is where we could say... "what you pay is what you get" lol
anyways... here are some pics as I promised.
I'll start a thread in case central as well for posting some full case shots
and a full cover...
