doing some pc updates here is old soon to come new

[FALLEN]

  so this is my first build i just ordered my new haf 932 and some fans and blue coolant for my water cooling saving for the new mobo and cpu next heres some pics of the old

[Schlup]

So what all do you have water cooled there?  I have the HAF 932 and I love it...it's got a dedicated area for water cooling and I though about doing it a bit but it kinda looks like a mess.  Plus I've heard some horror stories about it leaking a ruining parts.

So what all do you have water cooled there?  I have the HAF 932 and I love it...it's got a dedicated area for water cooling and I though about doing it a bit but it kinda looks like a mess.  Plus I've heard some horror stories about it leaking a ruining parts.

ah ya lost a nice mobo and a 9800 gt to a leak but i learned not to get kits i got an aquagate by coolermaster  but the res started leaking like 2 weeks later i was pissed so i looked on line and most rec that you keep the 2 120mm rad and use Koolance or  Thermaltake parts like in fittings and res-es but for amd you want a danger den CPU block and 3/8 hoses and you have to get nice coolant or it will wear parts out like pumps and hoses so get top line coolant none conductive coolant http://www.crazypc.com/products/pc-ice-93551.html like this and trust me you will love it  oh and that's just my CPU but it needs feed and return on both the rad and the CPU so ya 4 hoses at the most but i made them long so they show up next time not so long I'm changing the red fan in the 932 to blue and my 2 rad fans to blue I'm putting 2 green fans in the bottom and blue coolant with UV lights its going to be sick i cant wait if you need anymore water cooling tips hit me up iv been threw it all but truly i rec the v8 or v10 by coolermaster ask hashbrowny they rock pelter are way better than water cooling but water cooling looks better lol

[Schlup]

Yeah I'm more interested in performance than looks...nobody looks inside my case but me and I don't really care as long as it looks clean.  So what do you recommend for my scenario?

[FALLEN]

Yeah I'm more interested in performance than looks...nobody looks inside my case but me and I don't really care as long as it looks clean.  So what do you recommend for my scenario?

well your best bet for performance and looks is to not go with watercooling  get a pelter or tec cooler they can bring your cpu under load lower than room temps like 5 or 10 c lower there your best bet   http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=46_321&products_id=25091   http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=46_321&products_id=24705   http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=46_321&products_id=20691   http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=46_321&products_id=21144  i realy like the chill tec ultra but its a toss up with the v10 i recamended one to hashbrowny he told me its great but i think im going to just water cool my gpu and use athe chill tec on my cpu endless over clocking muhahahaha

[FALLEN]

k got my case and did some mods like swaped the red 230mm fan for a blue one and painted the inside and all the other parts flat black its sick wait for the coolant and other fans to come in to put it all in

[FALLEN]

  ok not done yet but it all in the case want a fan controler and some other lights but it looks ten times better and like 10c cooler i love this case i got the new blue fan in front and the blue fans on the radiator if you want to know ask away

[Monkey_Grill]

Very nice!

[CoCoCountyKiller]

looking sweet

something to think about on a side note :
painting parts black will cause a slight temp rise 

co.co.

[HashBrowny]

YEAH SCHLUP:

the CoolerMaster V10 Tec CPU Cooler is top notch next to water cooling if your not going for looks like Fallenone said.
He talked me into getting the V10 as my next cooler and man am i ever glad he did. okie for and input on past and present on heat

Asus Triton 78 CPU cooler:
Idle:   42-48 Cel
Gaming: 47-51 Cel

not bad for just a 120mm fan and Quad cooling pipes.

CoolerMaster V10:
Idle:  32 even Cel
gaming: 34-35 Cel
Overclock from 2.3ghz > 2.6ghz and gaming:  38.5  Cel        still have yet to see 39 Cel
thats with room temp staying from 70-80 on both coolers.

the CoolerMaster V10's Tec motor has a sensor in it that automatically kicks it into overdrive when it reaches a certain temp.
so far i havent reached that temp that i know of. i have even taken this Cooler with my processor which is an:
AMD Phenom 8650 Tolimon x3 core and had it at 2.7ghz and ran a 1 hour stability test at that OC which held all 3 cores at 2.7 and max cpu usage for the entire hour and still didnt reach 40 cel. that was the only time ive seen 39 cel.

[HashBrowny]

Oh yeah and i also forgot to mention it has an extended heatsync out of the side which has a 2nd 120mm fan. that flows through the heatsink and goes right down on top of your Memory Stick (ram).

so not only is it a cpu cooler but also a ram cooler.

[Schlup]

We'll see what kinda temps you are getting after you run the Intel Burn Test v2.3.  I bet it'll get up to 46 degrees easy.

[FALLEN]

ok my first youtube vid and soon i will have my updated watercooling stuff it will look sick

[FALLEN]

sorry my videos suck

[Schlup]

So what kinda temps are you getting now?  What is your overclock at?  That little screen with the temps and voltages that was on your desk in the first video...link please.

[Schlup]

sorry my videos suck

HD videos please!

[FALLEN]

its a asus screen duo it only comes with my mobo and the temps are only 5c lower and my max is still 2.9 i don't think it will go any higher and stay stable and yes hd vid but i don't know how

[Schlup]

Just keep bumping up your vcore until you can get stable at 3.5+GHz

[tehfunk101]

I dont think the original phenoms were very good overclockers :/

[Schlup]

No, they weren't but he really hasn't overclocked it at all yet!

[Schlup]

It's a Phenom first generation and I'm not sure on the model number or the stock clock but I'm sure it was like 2.6 or something.  So at .3GHz overclock really isn't overclocking at all.

[FALLEN]

yeah i have vcor maxed and it still wont break 3.0 2.9.50 is all i can get with out blue screen maby my board cant do it not to sure kinda a noob at the ocing stuff but whatever like 64 said just buy the better one at first your better off in the end so ill be upgrading but that means new board as well

[Schlup]

Why are you getting a new board?

[tehfunk101]

you should try underclocking your ram, i.e. if its ddr2 1333 force it to 1066

[FALLEN]

well i want a new am3 cpu and this board is only am2 yes it rocks but i want new stuff and ah under clocking the ram will let the cpu go hight well crap i was going the other way had the ram way overclocked 2.2v but ill try turning it down and it runs at 1.566v on cpu i dont think the board can do higher ill try but i think the max is 2.9 but every forum i read they say up to 3.2 easy but i cant break 2.9 with out blue screen

[FALLEN]

ok updated mobo cpu and ram  amd 965 b.e 3.4 @ 4.0 37c full load  msi nf908-g65 8 gigs g skill ddr 3 oh yeah new watercooling set up 1/2 in id 3/4 od primochill tubing new ocz high flow pump and ek waterblock  sick but soon the big gun gtx 480 with bits power waterblock cant wait maby a month  > sorry video sucks its with my phone

[Schlup]

That's a beast!

[Sir-diealot]

Very cool. We are running the same case, but no water cooling for me, it scares me.

[FALLEN]

thanks lots of time and money in it but soon there will be a 480 with a bitspower blue led water block or i might go green and do a duel loop green for gpus and blue for cpu and mobo first the 480 then ill figure it out but blue and green looks cool

[Schlup]

It's sizing up to be a nice rig!

[Samarium]

Nice Rig, Clean and Cool ^^

[CoCoCountyKiller]

Fallen your box is turning out to be very nice
 with a lot of time and thought going into it !!

BPN pride at its finest

[FALLEN]

i try lol next is a BPN tat who is with me

[Sir-diealot]

We would have to have a better logo.

[Schlup]

We would have to have a better logo.

It's in the works...

[Sir-diealot]

It's in the works...

You need to get one first, FEARLESS LEADER.

[FALLEN]

I MEAN IT make a grat logo and ill get the tat no joke monkey schlup 64 its up to you must have guns bullets and the bpn tag in it and ill get it tated on me k no joke best logo goes on me we should start a vote

[Sir-diealot]

Start a separate thread in the graphics section and state your intent. Then maybe we could do a poll inside with the ideas people come up with. Remember you would rather have them a bit large so the artist has a good stencil to work from and s/he can work in the detail.

[Schlup]

I don't do tattoo's or piercings...

[Sir-diealot]

I don't do tattoo's or piercings...

Why not, are you Jewish?

[Samarium]

I don't do tattoo's or piercings...

I don't get them either, It's a matter of Age and Professionalism my job certainly would frown upon any form of visible piercing or tattoo in the work place 75% of Tattoo's are regretted with 5 years and most piercings are a waste of money cause you take them out and they close.

There are lots of areas that are not visible, unless you are a lifeguard of course. I don't regret mine, though I have one that needs to be touched up. This one is my favorite.

doing some pc updates here is old soon to come new

[CoCoCountyKiller]

i try lol next is a BPN tat who is with me

not a good idea
I almost got one of my old clan logo
but I am glad that I did not as the clan is no longer
I was even thinking about getting something airbrushed on the back of my truck
for our lan party.
but just as paint fades so did the clan LOL

co.co.

[FALLEN]

 ok i wasted more money on my pc 1220w kingwin psu and i watercooled my gtx480 and got a new 360mm radiator i love it oh and a new cpu block for the i7 that im getting next week

[Sir-diealot]

Wow Bright:) Looks good.

[tehfunk101]

ok i wasted more money on my pc 1220w kingwin psu and i watercooled my gtx480 and got a new 360mm radiator i love it oh and a new cpu block for the i7 that im getting next week

lol, how much dough did you drop for that stuff!! That gpu water block is SICK!

[FALLEN]

350.00 for it all from proformace pc

[Schlup]

Ok, Fallen, when you are taking pictures, you need to just barely press down on the button, it will then focus and make a sound, then once you hear the sound press the button down the rest of the way to take the picture.  You have like 12MP pics up there and most of them are blurry.

[Xtricity]

How much did all of that cost you?

[Schlup]

How much did all of that cost you?

Look up a few posts...

[FALLEN]

ok out with the amd junk in comes intel bring it on games also my ssd's and the new cpu waterblock looks great on this mobo i must say i will post vid after i get my CORSAIR DOMINATOR 12GB (6 x 2GB) ram

so its a i7 950
MSI BigBang Xpower
OCZ vertex 2 60g ssd's in o raid

[Schlup]

Benchmarks please!

[FALLEN]

OK with  ppu off so its ranked

http://3dmark.com/3dmv/2768282

with ppu on cant rank score unfair to ati users cuz nvidia have phys x which makes the CPU score way higher as u can see lol nvidia for the win

http://3dmark.com/3dmv/2767867


im still working on ocing it further so I'm sure my scores will be higher

[Schlup]

Hey everybody, look...Fallen is trying to burn up his new CPU by overclocking it before it's had time to break-in, even before the thermal paste has had time to setup!  Nice scores though!

[FALLEN]

trust me the water is keeping it nice and cool

[tehfunk101]

OK with  ppu off so its ranked
http://3dmark.com/3dmv/2768282
 

How much faster is it compared to your previous AMD setup?

Hey everybody, look...Fallen is trying to burn up his new CPU by overclocking it before it's had time to break-in, even before the thermal paste has had time to setup!  Nice scores though!

You break in your cpus?

[Schlup]

trust me the water is keeping it nice and cool

It's not about the temps all that much, it's about making sure the thermal paste has time to setup and cure out.  It's also about breaking in the CPU, it's like a car engine.  When you get a new car or new car engine you don't slam it full throttle 24/7 as soon as you get it, you break it in before you slam it full throttle so it lasts longer and reduces the probability of something breaking or having issues sooner than later.

[tehfunk101]

Thermal paste does have to set and cure (especially arctic silver) and changes efficiency over time, but a CPU has no mechanical parts/tolerances or chemical qualities, its just a chunk of transistors.  CPU's are tested pretty thoroughly at the factory, so its not like the first time its been turned on is when you put it in your mobo.

[Sir-diealot]

it's like a car engine.  When you get a new car or new car engine you don't slam it full throttle 24/7 as soon as you get it, you break it in before you slam it full throttle so it lasts longer and reduces the probability of something breaking or having issues sooner than later.

Says you!

[FALLEN]

well i must say blows my amd setup away and really opened up my  gtx 480 just a great set up really

[Monkey_Grill]

So, are you running on Four Tire or just Two Tire?

[Schlup]

That there is a 4 tire rig Grill!

[FALLEN]

lol u 2 rock yeah 4 tire

[FALLEN]

It's almost done just some ram and a new fan to replace the bad one
