Whats wrong with the stock NB heatsink?
Passive and cools well enough for 1ghz FSB.

Sorry to dig up this old thread.

This looks interesting.

Will this work on an asus p4p800?

kogi

Neither model should pose much of a threat to Hyper 6 in terms per thermal performance

Yes, but the Hyper 6 is a 9cm high 1kg monster.
I refuse to strap that thing onto my Motherboard, no matter how silent it is.

Hi guys,

Does the zalman 7000alcu fit in a asus p4p800 and a slk3700amb case?
Also what are the specs on the stock intel 2.8c HSF?

much thanks
kogi

I think it should have arrived by now. Please tell

kogi

It would depend on HOW powerful you need it.
for normal purposes a barton mobile should do

Athlon XP Mobile 2500+ (Barton core)
1.45v 45w

gak, If that's a mobile that's pretty high volts.

I was doing 210x11.5 = 2415Mhz @ 1.75 Volts
That was before the noise of the L1A @ 12v started to annoy me

kogi

I want to find the lowest volts a barton/mobile will boot and fold.
Pleae post your lowest stable volts!

Sorry, my bad naming of the Fast Panaflo should be H1A?

80mm High Speed. Model FBA08A12H.
2950 RPM fan speed
39.6 CFM air flow
32.0 dBA noise level
Power Consumption: 2.08W

The duct will be a pain because of the door on the SLK3700.

" will is still be auto controlled"
If you wire it to the orig wires yes, if you hard wire it to 12v or 7v no.

There is still no clear concensous (speeling?) on which 120mm fan is better, papst or panaflo.

/me dork

It is quieter after the l1a mod. It was a rogue video card fan making all the noise.
But it is still not as quiet as I like. So now I've got a M1A at 7v, if that's not good enough I'll use a F1A at 5v

Both are nicely quiet at 5v

You really should add a case fan to exhaust the heat from the system. Otherwise the heat will get into the PSU and make the PSU fan spin fast. I had to mod the zalman with a panaflo to make is nore acceptable noise wise. Also in case you didn't know In oz Panaflo fans are avail from www.pccasegear.c...

7v L1a in the zalman 400a. Hows the temps? Are you in winter or summer over there?

kogi

GenghiS_KhaN: Yes just 4 tiny screws

I replaced the fan in my zalman 400a with a panaflo L1A and the results are it's louder than stock. Since the L1A has a lower CFM it looks like the PSU spins it at max speed all the time. Summers can get pretty hot here in oz and I don't have air-com. What Can I do to safely fix this? a) fan isolato...

Australian?? where

GLO wrote: What would you do then?

Still buy the zalman

kogi

Why bother, for that price you can buy a zalman 400w and a panaflo fan.

kogi

Get the brand and model of the current fan
Google for the specs, mainly CFM
Replace with a similar spec panaflo

My greatest worry is about the temps. Questions: 1. Is 53C normal for a 1,6V undervolted Barton? It seems too high. I 2. Are the temps for the southbridge normal? I thought it was the 4.

1) For a gamer and home theater. I would prefer the NF7-S. Audio quailty is much better with soundstorm. Unless you will be using an ecternal card.

After plonking down money for an XP-M. I got a bit bored waiting for it to come in the mail ( US -> Aust).

Barton and NF2, Overclock using the FSB and Vcore What are your load temps and what HSF are you using? Try using a smaller overclock first Maybe 180FSB, This will give you 180 x 11 = 1980Mhz If that doesn't work, you may have to increase your vcore or your HSF isn't up to the task of cooling an over...

This seems like a pretty good setup.
What is the loudest thing in your system right now?

I'm guessing the only thing that will make any noticeable noise is your PSU. A higher powered PSU with a good efficiency and maybe a panaflo fan mod should fix this

kogi

Did you get the seasonic PSU in Australia?
If so Where?

kogi

Link here lists the Abit NF7-S as incompatible.

I'm not sure about revision 2 of the NF7 though, which includes mounting holes.
EDIT: found this "The Zalman requires a corner to be cut off to avoid bending a cap on NF7 boards"
