modded Mach II pics

[WxChaser]

Here's a few pics of my modded Mach II. Running r404a with custom cap tube length, new baker block and evap housing, Simpson M240 LCD readout with K type thermocouple in milled trap in evaporator.

Currently using IC7 Max3 with P4 3.4 @ 4.1 to 4.4 GHz (run every day around 4.1 unless benching). OCZ 2x256 PC3700 Gold rev II, 2 Raptor 36GB drives plus 80GB WD IDE drive with dual boot xp & Suse Linux Professional.

Pics were running dual prime @ ~ -52f. At boot temp is approximately -60 to -67f dependent on room temperature. Under load doesn't get down below -52f.

Had to make my own mounting system - so I used 6/32 inch threaded rod, cut out a lexan block for rear plate, then sealed with neoprene around socket and front of rear plate.

Looking good. I like the simplicity of the mounting system. Are you getting good cpu contact with the block? With the stock setup on my mach 1 it seems to only touch 90% of the cpu. Any more pics?

NICE!!! I like it. What other benchmarks do you run?

[arabarabian]

That is looking good. How much time/money?

Those r some really good temps u should slap a 3.4EE in there and crank that and c if u can get around 4.5

i luv how ur desk is so clean and stuff..UNLIKE MOST PEOPLE HERE
*glares at everyone hehe
JK
why..are u running linux?..im just wondering..

[WxChaser]

Are you getting good cpu contact with the block? Very good contact as you can tell from the thermal imprint pic...always do a test fit first.

Bench using 3d01 and 03...Aquamark...SuperPi, etc.

Those r some really good temps u should slap a 3.4EE in there and crank that and c if u can get around 4.5 Getting close to that now and the price for the EE is steep, rather run an fx-53 when the 939 pins come out.

why..are u running linux?..im just wondering.. For fun. It's on the 80 gig drive which has dual boot with XP & Suse Linux Professional. Usually I change the boot order & just boot off one of my raptors which has XP. I like playing with different OS's.
