Installed my Kit today, and man am i a happy puppy.
Its dead quiet and runnin 36C load with the xp1600+@1750mhz.
The kit:
WB: Swiftech MCW462-UH
Radiator: Black Ice Pro
Pump: Eheim 1048
Misc items: 1/2" silicon hose Water wetter blue UV die.
However im not to sure the mobo is givin me a correct value on the CPU temp.
Thou its rock stable and its quiet and thats all that really matters.
Gonna post some pics of this as soon as i get my hands on a Digi cam.
Need to buy me a new mobo and some DDR to be able to get any higher thou.
 
wow very impressive for sdram, i used to only get 7500, getting new memory / motherboard made my score jump to 12016, then a new cpu made it jump to 14300.... still not high enough ;)
 
Nice work mate!

2 questions: What is your room temp like?

Also, (completly off the subject) Is your q-tec PSU good? I'm considering getting one :D
 
The Qtec Psu has had somewhat mixed thoughts from different people.
Thou both i and my friend who use the same model is totally happy with it.
Not once has there been any kind of trouble with it.

Hmm another 1k should be possible with some better cooling for the GPU.
Its not even maxxed atm.
Runnin it at 279/513 aircooled without ramsinks.
people say that for the 3dmark tests you should make a fresh installation and defrag the drive.
I havent done either in about 4months.
Wonder if it will get any better. Should try it today.
Posting later results.
