Very nice. You got one of the all-in-one-case jobbies? I'd need one of these, as I've got a nice Lian Li case already. I can't really justify it. What, didn't water cooling cut it for you?

Im gonna

Tbh im a wee bit out my depth. Best taking to Mr footlong.No water cooling kit can ever match a freezer! Maybe hit just below 0 but not significantly.

My main worry is, im looking to get a 170-180 fsb speed i reckon. The bloke who got my cpu for me because it was hand seleted, as certain chips overclock well. has already tested mine to run a 3.6 water cooled. The advantage is that he can water cool the Chipset better then i can. Ive only got a fan So thats the limit to prometeia.

I'd do it mate its all good fun. Ill keep you posted

I pulled out the w/c kit because it was too high maintenance for my liking. I might go back later - especially as I bought loadsa decent kit and it's just sitting idle now. I didn't use a chiller, or peltier - so there was plenty of room for additional O/Cing (I had 1900MHz out of an Athlon XP-1700+).

But yes, I can see the appeal of a self-contained cryo unit. I just don't need it, that's the problem. The PC's used for work (self-employed), so can't really justify making it a project system currently. Still - you've got me thinking now...

call it a learning experience. That my excuse. i could have just used water but i thought . Well ill only want to buy it in the long run anyway.

my justification is, im always going to have a processor 2yrs in front the the lastest stock core speed

At the mo only cpu coming out is a 3.20. Ive way cleared that

bar the prescott which no one knows the clock speed yet.

Ill end up putting water in this just for GPu and Chipset, but ill leave it to a pro to do.

When I canned my W/C rig it was (partly) because it was just getting ridiculous. I was going for three water loops, each with separate pumps and radiators.
- CPU alone
- gfx card and northbridge
- SCSI hard-drive.
...I couldn't fit that lot inside the case! It wouldn't fit near the case either!

Yawn at si.

--Tbh im a wee bit out my depth-- You aint kiddin m8.

And why did u waste over 400 quid? I heard you were so s*** at games (quake3 spesh) that I doubt its to get a few more fsp. Pics please cos Im fed up listening to all the things u claim to be doing to yer pc.

You told jye and others well before Christmas that you were gonna get an ATI 9700 pro, 2.8 gig Intel, new top spec mobo etc etc asap, what a load of bull**** u talk m8.

How else can you get a SETI work unit done in <2hrs? Seriously... that's another reason I haven't gone back to w/c (or even cryo) - 2GHz of Athlon is plenty for my needs currently.

Right lets explain to the little kiddy what the boxes are, because i havent started building yet.

The actual compressor in the the bottom half the case, you wont see it. Youve got your pictures, so now get back to school or what ever you do.

Thumbs down

Both of you, but zed especially, if you haven't got anything constructive to post, then please shut up and stop wasting forum space.

Yes that it Si's rig, yes, he is blatantly copyin my setup and yes, god help us all, but me especially when build time comes for him and yes this really isn't the most interesting or productive post either, but there you go

Nick.
