Looks blinging m8.

I didn't originally intend for it to be so shiney but it's gone that way as the project has evolved. I have always preferred silver fittings and i like to see colour in a build

Not quite finished but couldn't resist some more pictures

JeffyB · 11 Aug 2010 at 19:32

Well it's certainly brought my gpu temps down. Heres idle 26 degrees at start up maxed at 30 after about 10mins. Powerplay is not working with this driver (10.7) as well so not as cool as it could be as gpu is at 400mhz not 157 lol!

Not stressed it yet gonna have a game in a bit

JeffyB · 11 Aug 2010 at 19:53

After 7-8 minutes at full load gpu temps peaked at 40-41 degrees where they stayed for the next 10mins.

really good temps

thanks, it's filled me with confidence as well

JeffyB, I'm not sure if you have done this, can you post the full cost of your watercooling endeavours so that people new to the game can get a better idea??

JeffyB · 16 Aug 2010 at 00:10

That is a GORGEOUS looking CPU block! Does it give good temps?

JeffyB · 16 Aug 2010 at 00:16

It's all dependant on ambients but full load is high 50's, gpu maxes at 40 degrees.

Reaper652 · 16 Aug 2010 at 00:19

Looks so peerrrrrddy, making me jealous

.

1kiwi · 16 Aug 2010 at 14:25

Are the before quoted temps for the CPU at 4Ghz?

JeffyB · 16 Aug 2010 at 14:27

Yes, purely dependant on ambient though, on a warmer day i have hit 60 but every other time its high 50's

JeffyB · 16 Aug 2010 at 14:58

Just ran prime for 20mins and max temp was 62, usual range was 58-61 and it's a pretty warm day

PaulyD · 16 Aug 2010 at 15:11

Looking very good mate, I choose the plexi for my gpu block and love it, had no issue with it cracking and touch wood I don't!

Know what you mean about the weight of it though, I got that block and the nickel backplate on my 5970, certainly makes it hefty!!

Very nice temps your getting as well, best thing about watercooling is the silence and even when your gaming/benching it doesn't get any louder, just silence

4.2ghz or above should be very easy for you mate as well

twist3d0n3 · 16 Aug 2010 at 15:27

blimey that's a great voltage for 4GHz - i take it that's with LLC enabled?

JeffyB · 16 Aug 2010 at 18:02

Yeah it's a good clocker, have benched it at 4.4ghz on air and yes thats with LLC. Temps are about 5-6 ldegrees lower than that in the evening and today has been a warm one

twist3d0n3 · 16 Aug 2010 at 18:23

any chance you could post your settings for me to have a butchers? i know i have a different board/different manufacturer etc, but i'm just curious to see if i can change something similar to yours and lower vcore

don't worry about it if it's too much hassle, just being nosey

JeffyB · 16 Aug 2010 at 18:24

Sure i'll post them later when i get a chance

domthecondom · 16 Aug 2010 at 18:31

nice one dude

nice build nice clock
