I've been reading the stickies and some posts for some custom made stuff and was wondering if using a complete radiator would have any drwawbacks other then size? (compared to the chevette heater core setup)
I.m trying to figure out what setup would beat my current air setup by a buttload and for how much.
These temps are ****ing me off!!!
the 7800gt can get close to 75°c with the zalman+pci blower and very good case airflow
The cpu on auto voltage stays in the low 50°c at 270fsb but i cant go any higher then 270fsb without upping the voltage significantly (1.4v cant complete a 32m spi yet at even 262fsb and the temps go near 65 at that voltage)
So im looking at cheap ugly ways to get the most cooling out of a setup
custom water cooling + custom water chiller would probably do a nice job
I'd love 10-20° load temps with an even higher oc but phase/pelt setups are a pain from my pov and from what ive read a good water chiller setup will get some very good results. (and leaves room to add a pelt if it still isnt enough)
