shamino is awesome

and here's an example of why:

makes you think about how easy it is to make non-uniform phase change

 

[Joe Camel]

lol and i thought my rigs were total cluster-F's ... i got NOTH'N on him!!



man i need to learn to DIY phase cool...

 

[HousERaT]

saw that..... yeah he's rather talented not just as an overclocker either.

I was waiting for someone to try this out. Weird that it didn't help. Lower temps definitely helps out the ATi Xx00's and X1x00's memory by itself.

 

[Mr.Guvernment]

um how is 1ghz core %50 faster from 650mhz.... someone needs to work on thier math

I think its just the nature of DDR3. I am seeing alot of crazy overclocks with DDR3 that they didn't even put ram sinks on it. However with DDR1 it certainly is very usefull as it gets hot.

I do believe he said MORE THAN 50% which would be correct... I don't understand??

Ya I dont get what the deal is? That statement is basically right, I mean no one gets that specific when they are describing %'s.



Unless you just bugging him, then .

 

[Mr.Guvernment]

DOH! stupid me..lol

i dont know what i was thinking %50 as 1300!

yeah sorry is righ 650 -> %50 = 325 | 650 + 325 = 975

It appears the memory chips are not the limiting factor themselves. The issues seem to revolve around the core and mem controller. Actually I'm not surprised it didn't help. It seems the people with the superior core cooling are getting the best memory overclocks, so I'm thinking it's either a core/mem controller issue or pcb issue.

when kp puts ln2 on the core it is not just the core that gets cooled to -degrees the hole card dose along with the ram chips

i do not think sham cooled the ram enough to notice if it would work or not

he just did not get the chips cold enough or as cold as you would find with ln2

the design of shams cold plate was never going to make much differance to the temps of the ram there were to many parts to make for good heat transfer

i belive there is enough evidence ie. the fact that kp can do it with ln2
that it would be worth further work using a full on evap system

and full respect to sham for his first try i am sure he wont stop there

That thing is massive

[Time4aMassiveOC]

that was a whole lot of work for no higher overclock... that stinks..

are there any watercooling solutions for videocard ram?

 

[Eldonko]

Sham is awesome, hes been a step ahead for years.
