I had to order from else where but should be here in a few days but looks so good from them pics. Shame i wont be able to fit as ocuk ran out of 45 degree fixings
not of the EK nickels you had 4 when i purchased but when picked you went down to 2 so they been missed off order already spoke to 5UB about it, shame it wasnt possible to send what you got now and rest later.
Well I have my ex480 installed now and i am very pleased I have to say.
Before
Magicool 280 slim(2x140mm pull)
Idle 30 degrees and in prime + bf3 averaging 42 degrees.
Now
Magicool 280 slim(2x140mm pull) + XSPC 480 (3x140mm push + 3x120mm pull).
At idle I am now on 23 degrees and with 1 hour of prime was averaging 35 degrees.
So 7 degree drop which is really got for a £60 radiator.
I would have thought that would be fine. I got a EX 360 to cool 3 480's and a 120 for my CPU. I think that should be ok imo. We shall see tho hopefully be building my new WC this weekend if time permits.
Same. i just ordered it and shoudl come tomorrow along with all the rest of my WC gear from another supplier.
This will be my first WC attempt. wish me luck.
been reading and reading and watching loads of guides for the past 2-3 weeks and finally made the purchase. Hope everything comes tomorrow so i can look into building it in the weekend, if not next weekend.
Have to admit these are great radiators, after some stress testing and a few days of folding the EX480 is keeping my Dual Hex core CPU's @ 4.2ghz under 60 degrees, they average around 54-58 degrees on the hottest core, very happy and just hope when I add the SR-2 chipset and VRM waterblocks it wont rise tooooo much!
