Re: My Reserator 1+ experience

I think that this should be setting off alarm bells that the issue is the flow in your loop to the CPU rather than the capacity of the Res to radiate the heat. The cards will be pumping out at least as much as the CPU, so ask yourself why the Res can keep the GPUs cool but not the CPU? If your CPU ...

They are pretty quiet when undervolted, but the problem is that the noise they make is a clicking sound, which I think...

Re: What is a reasonable Nforce4 chipset temperature?

... There's no chipset temp monitor on this MB, but I've stuck an analog sensor from the mCubed T-balancer right on top of the little heatsink that sits on the chipset. The measured temperature there rises quickly to 70 even under low load. It stays there though - doesn't ever rise above 71 even un...

Re: Reserator 1 Plus Heat Dissipation Ability

I'm planning and Athlon X2 4400+, northbridge, and 6600GT cooling loop and want to make sure it can handle it (and ideally leave some headroom to overclock the 4400+ a little bit or add a s...

2 Phantom models 350 & 500

I had a Phantom 350 EC in my previous system for 7 months (it ran only a litlle warm to the touch on my good old P160, and it's already running on that system, my parents one by now). The voltages were very stable but a litlle lower than my actual Phantom 500 EC. I haven't had a single reason to com...

Yes I know, but ...

Einllel, the latest Plextor burner (the PX-740A) is a BenQ DW1640. Only the firmware is different. The hardware is converging. If you look at some of the DVD firmware hack sites, this becomes obvious when a single firmware works on a number of different drives from different manufacturers. It's pos...

Hi again, ATWindsor, The Reserator 1 Plus is louder in my actual setup (This time I cut the silicone tubs shorter than with the original one, I'm not sure, but this probably has some effect in the perceived sound, and there is a 20% of anticorrosion liquid from Zalman that has a different density th...

Some advises

Hi ATWindsor, I have a setup similar at what you are looking for. Before this system I had a 3500+ NewCastle with Reserator 1 into a Antec P160 with Antec Phantom 350 and a MSI K8N Neo 2 Platinum as motherboard with a GForce 4 Ti 4200 watercooled by the Reserator 1 too (ZM-GWB1).

Mine only lasted 10 burns aprox.

I have suffered three DVD burner failures in last year (2 LiteOn's 832 and the last one a Benq DW1640). At the end I decided to buy a Plextor, and I have burned a pair of Spindles (of 25 pcs) in the last 6 months without a single problem (I will never buy a sub-60 € burner again). This are my two ce...

I bought my Reserator 1 on July 2004, since then it has been working right and quiet. Sometimes it seems to start buzzing noticeably, but simply switching it off and on a couple of times the buzz diseapears (I think I have read that in the manual). I Also read that it is recomended to put something ...

My PC is 24x7 "eMuling", and I'm used to playing HL2, GP4, NFSU 2, and Civ3 and never had a single problem even after 4 hours of intense gaming. Now I would buy it again, if I had to buy a new one.
