Got the radiator. It is freaking huge. 18.75"x5.85"x4.10" (LxWxH). According to the guys at Feser, this thing is capable of dissipating 2000 watts of heat. The Noiseblocker fan looks amazing, best looking fans I've seen.

Need some more stuffs in before starting to chop GT1000

This monsta will arrive by the Fedex guy today. It will be reside inside the Zalman GT1000 case. http://www.feser-one.com/site/popup_image2.php?pID=322 These three super quiet fans will be on the monsta for push-configuration. http://www.frozencpu.com/products/image/8400/fan-516.jpg/fan-516/Noiseblo...

Since this is my first water cooling, mind as well as go for the extreme...the whole 9 yards. The radiator will be two XSPC RX360s. It is sub 8 FPI (Fin Per Inch), and it is ideal for very low air flow fans such as those Noctua 500-RPM. These two 360 rads will be installed internally into the Zalman...

@~El~Jefe~ Do you know if the quick connect can be replaced? I am wonder if the Koolance Quick Connect will fit in the Zalman's fitment. The reason for this is that I want to use the more standard tubing. There is no doubt, I think the Res 1 v2 can cool 300-watts easily proven by that user who used ...

Oh brother! After seeing this setup I'm drooling for custom

"With quad core q9650 cpu/4870x2 gpu, the cpu went to 90 degrees (overtemp alarm) in only 1 hour of *nearly idle* cpu activity. Cooling just the Danger Den 4870x2 alone, the gpu temp went to 80 degrees after a 4 hour Stalker Clear Sky mad session (note: max detail 1900x1200 so I was rocking the car...

I'm not replacing the pump for performance reason, but just for convenience. This is a hardcore gaming rig, oracle database server, and work :). I need it to be silent as possible since I am using the computer into the midnight hour. The GTX 295 noise is bearable but I rather not hear it whining. Th...

Will the Reserator 1 V2 capable of cooling the GTX 295? The TDP for GTX 295 is roughly 290 watts. I'm sure a 14 pounds block of aluminum can cope with 290 watts...but who knows I may be way off. NOTE: I would replace the pump. I need a DC pump that can be powered by the PC. Also, I will not be overc...

That's still inaudible. Planning to put them on 2x360mm radiator inside the case. Thanks.

If put 6 of NF-S12-800 fans in the case, how loud are they going to be?
Noctua rated <5dBA per fan using U.L.N.A.

With this case, the appearance would look so plain and vanilla without those front two LED fans. The front case fans help lower about 5C though. All the fans in my case are now controlled by a fan controller. For the NB fan, I set the fan speed in the BIOS to operate at 50% and then I used FANMATE2 ...

Yeah the cables are kinda like spaghetti. The power cables supplied with the Corsair HX620W are short so I have to run them in the foreground rather than hidden in the background. It was nice and neat until I added the fan controller. However, after the case doors are closed I see no trace of wires ...

The stock heatsink of the 8800 GTS/GTX/ULT do not exhaust hot air externally (well maybe less than 5%). The heat gets dumped inside the case profusely through those shark-like-gills vent. This is where 95% of the heat escape and obviously inside the case. Put a pci-slot cooler underneath these fins,...

Thanks nzone. Further along in the hardforum thread linked above, armyoffoo is claiming 46C idle on an 8800GTX with a Yate Loon D12SL-12 zip-tied to a VF1000. Pics included but no load temps reported yet. Now it's a 3-slot solution, if this can be verified and duplicated by other users. My own prog...

christopher3393, It used to be, yes. I did a minor reconfigured since then. You can control the VF1000 with the included FAN MATE2. Instead, I plugged the VF1000 fan to the motherboard chassis connector. With eVGA 680i SLI A1, the chassis 1 fan header can be adjusted with range from 0% to 100% from ...

VF1000 is no better than HR-03 Plus. Although people have the opinion about cost but you pay for feature and material. I'm not saying it is better but it is what it is. VF1000 is 100% copper, and HR-03 is 100% aluminum; and copper is more expensive in term of material and manufacturing process. The ...

thejamppa,

www.frozencpu.com have Enzo and they do ship oversea.

NB runs very hot. Have you consider changing it to Heat pipe cooler like: http://www.nexustek.nl/nhp2200_heat_pipe_northbridge_cooler.htm or http://www.thermalright.com/a_page/main_product_hr05sli.htm or http://www.noctua.at/main.php?show=productview&products_id=7&lng=en That might help reducing th...

ExiT, I have tried to take some pictures at night (I couldn't do during the day) but the flash from the digital camera made the pictures looked washed. I'll try to get a clean looking one. For GT-1000, it's an amazing case. If you want serious silencing and doesn't care about aesthetic looks, you ca...

I replaced: SB with http://www.enzotechnology.com/cnb_s1l.htm NB with http://www.zalman.co.kr/eng/product/view.asp?idx=200&code=014 CPU Cooler: Zalman 9700NT Now I am completely satisfied with my system noise. I couldn't hear my system :D but after the wee hour (pass 1 AM) I could hear a little bit ...

Not sure about the layout of the ChillTec---but a Peltier has a HOT SIDE and you want to DUCT that out-not circulate it The chilltec has the cool sink in the front, the hot sink in the rear. I was thinking about ducting too, but part of me said no because it would not look good. My case has windows...

I have the one that comes with the duct. It only has 4 pipes each side, not the newer one that has 6 pipes. It is now sit on top of the Q6600 B3 (105watt). I ran nVidia stress test tool (2 hrs setting) and play game simultaneously (2 hrs). Nothing fancy. I do not use ducting because the rear fan doe...

Good to know. I have the HR-01 + duct (collecting dust) and Q6600 B3. I'm going to try it tonight and report back the results. I will try both with and without the duct. Last time I tried was with Pentium D 945 3.4Ghz (rated 95w). I didn't remember the temp at the time but I remembered I couldn't to...

You're correct I am having a very difficult time silencing this rig. I experimented last night by unplugging the two front 92mm fans. To my surprise, I got about 50% improvement in term of noise reduction but at the expense of raising 4C degree on the motherboard (idle increased to 40C). I don't kno...

I am not satisfy with the noise of my system produces.

Is that an 9700 NT? How is the noise property?

I was on the phone with sharka regarding my order of VF1000. There is no definite date about the VM-RHS88 heatsink, but they just said could be any day. They did say that they have the VF1000 cooler in stock and ready to ship. The VF-1000 can be used for video < 8800 series. Anyone thinking about Za...
