XSPC RS360 is enough for a 2600k + 3 x HD6950's

That's right ladies an XSPC RS 360 radiator with 3 1000RPM bitfenix spectra fans is plenty of cooling power for a intel Core i7 2600K + 3 x HD6950's (unlocked shaders).

Basically I'm having to replace my phoyba G changer 480 V1.2 so I'm just using an XSPC RS (not the thicker RX version) 360, a Laing DDC 10W 350 pump, Heatkiller 69x0 waterblocks and a EK Supreme HF waterblock

Everything at stock:

Prime95 for 10 mintues = 44C (hottest core)

Unigine Heaven 2.5, CPU = 45C GPU1= 40C GPU2 = 39C GPU3 = 43C

I'm just shocked that a very thin 360 rad with low RPM fans are able to cool this setup.

May try some overclocking in a bit

One of the CPU cores peaked at 46C this time, last time was on a cold boot

@EllisDJ, my RAM can do 6-8-6-18 1T @ 1.65V which is fairly normal

I didnt know that - I am sure thats the same ram as me

I am running cas 8 @ 1.5v and read in lots of places dont exceed 1.5 v with sandy?

I have got vengeance sorry

Yeah I've seen a few reviews state a recommended RAM voltage of 1.5V, I've not come across any issues with running 1.65V

from the CPU sections SB voltages thread "We've also discussed with Asus and MSI regarding voltages for memory and they also confirm in their testing 1.65v caused no issues with reliability."

So I've stuck with it. :)
 
@koooowweeee (?) I'm just waiting on my replacement G changer 480 to go with the RS 360.

I just need a working PC whilst I wait so thought I'd check out the temps (expecting them to be awful) and was pleasantly surprised.

@ Avathar77 .. Yeah I was surprised too!

I'm going to do some overclocking and see if thats were the 480 rad was working its magic.


My back plates were sanded down ( one had to be dremeled! ) primed, sanded, primed sanded, painted, sanded, painted, sanded.... ETC
Took awhile but I like the look better than the original black ones.

Very easy to do if you have the time.
