any one experience this one....
also would like to know temp improvements...

Afew pics...
Pics taken with a blackberry 9330 ick...
A few more things and leak testing...

There a reason you need a Waterblock for the mobo? What are your chipset temps looking like? Im running a 4GHz dual core and ridiculous voltages at 2700nb, 1600 7-7-7 ram and only hitting 30C with the stock cooler (and a 120MM fan blowing on the chipset & VREGS)

boucher91 · Feb 28, 2010

not running yet, still building..pump and 4 more fans on the rad...
almost there...
there are 4 120 intake on the mobo side of the case also 1 intake in front bottom...
dont have any clue yet on temps but was pondering the mobo block....

nb hitting 44c @ stock full load..
too high?

not really my mcp hit 56-58 degree... which is incredible high... i might install that little fan taht came with the mobo box (asus q fan )

boucher91 · Mar 5, 2010

no fan came with it but i have 2 92 mm fans mounted or ziptied (lol) above the nb and the mem....http://www.jab-tech.com/Noiseblocke...25mm-Ultra-Quiet-Fan-1800-RPM-21-pr-4540.html
theese are the fans

i am really thinking i'd like to get this http://www.frozencpu.com/cat/l3/g30...pset_-_Board_Specific-nForce_790FX-Page1.html
my question is should i be thinking of another loop or maybe another rad or will what i have be sufficent...
rght now @stock speed with mem running@1600@7-7-7-20-1t nb gets to mid40s but cpu is usually 32 to 37 depending on my ambient....

mid 40s is good. dont add restriction to your loop. :0

boucher91 · Mar 11, 2010

4 of those fans i mentioned up above without them i reach the 50s
if they are that restrictave i can make a whole loop for it all i would need to do that is a what size rad? have everything else ...
was kinda hoping to just add it to the loop i can always speed my pump up as it set to 2.5-3 bout 1/2 speed..
if its a waste i suppose its a waste...would the better temps enhance the performance and life of the board?
so far have went to 3.8 just with the multi on the cpu and noticed the nb temps then thats when i installed the fans

Grosjambon · Mar 11, 2010

Oh- you have a 480sized rad. then its gonna be enough to keep all temps good. just put ur d5 at 4/4.5

boucher91 · Mar 11, 2010

ty sounds as though its possible but if i needed to i could add another small rad easily.....
as is i would run it right after the cpu in the loop, res,pump,rad,cpu,mobo...
but would it be better to use a few Ys to seperate the cpu and mobo more hose also?

Grosjambon · Mar 11, 2010

y are no good... since water take the less restrictive way one side will get all to flow other will get nothing

boucher91 · Mar 11, 2010

ty prolly order this next week....
