Noob watercooled build..

Batteries charging.. :rolleyes:

Note to self... when Vista tries to locate HDD's and doesn't find them, don't assume it's a SATA driver issue.
CHECK YOU PLUGGED THEM IN FIRST. :o

Unless you spend a significant amount on the water setup, the cooling isn't going to be much better than good air. Especially these days when all the air coolers are very good. However if you do spend the cash on decent water its temps can be significantly better. Then again I'm sure if you spent the same amount on air cooling you might be able to come up with some crazy solution that would be better :P

It was more about the peace and quiet aspect of the watercooling system on this one as it is in my cinema room, the whirring of the old system got on my ****.
Now the loudest item is my crunchy crunchy Raptors. :o
 
3.52Ghz (440x8) @ 1.192v (everest CPUID)
Hottest core is #4 @ 57
Fans still on quiet though. :D

Don't quite understand why the memory has to be adjusted everytime I change the FSB though, despite everything on the memory side being on manual.
Supposed to be 1066 Mhz but the closest I ratio I can get is 1057 (12:10)
