Audiofanaticz PC "upgrading watercooling Page12" updated 2/3/16


Recommended Posts

Also here is the radiator I have. But I painted it Satin Red. Paint job came out nice. And the cooling fins aren't painted, just to clarify. That would be no bueno lol.

yea they are. i just looked at it on xoxide i think it was and said just intel. Maybe a newer model, or a completly different one all together. LOL

Hence why I asked for pics. but no worries, If its am3 am3+ is the same socket, and the same mounting

Other then that if memory serves right, am3 supports the phenom 2 and athlon 2 chips, while am3 supports those chips and adds support for the fx series, and it is also what makes sli capable on amd boards again.

Thanks man. Long gone though, for the most part. Just have the case, GPU, PSU, and DVD Drive. All up for grabs btw :P

The loop got my 2500k to 5.2 stable. I even lapped the CPU and it gained me a few degrees. Miss tinkering with it every day.

hmmm gpu. what you got in there?

Yea tinkering is fun, but when your not gaining and constantly restarting it gets annoying! LOL

Im stable currently at 5.12ghz but I think Im not going to push it too much farther until something is done with the cooling.

I was thinking about putting my thermalright back on here to try it and see if I can back up similar results, but that would require a lot of tinkering since once I got this together I went over to my moms house with a big box of parts and upgraded her. She is was very happy since I normally give her the old hand me downs, and my old old rig has been acting up on her for a few months now.

Nothing too special pretty much my old pc in the same case unpainted with no side window, but for her POGO games, she is more then well set for a whille. LOL

Haha nice! Looks good. And the GPU is the ASUS HD Radeon 2GB 6950. The 3 slot thick one.

I painted my case, black/white theme, kind of stormtrooper-esque. And the grills were red.

Managed to find some pics

Hey, I'm not downplaying AMD by any stretch of the imagination. I'm pretty sure they hold the OC crown right now.

AMD will beat intel in multithreaded benches, Intel seems to win in lower threaded ones, and the circle of life continues. I'm sure they'll be something out in a year thats twice as fast in both camps. I've just had better luck with intel, but everything else you mentioned parts wise, I use the same stuff. I have an H100i on my i5.

Still running strong at 5.1ghz :D

Most likely wont push it farther until cooling is upgraded, been checking out a few parts getting an idea of what I want.

Currently waiting for the 1st of the month to get my tennants rent check, and deposit it in the bank on the 2nd, then order a ssd.

Still leaning towards the Samsung 840Pro 256gb, or the 840EVO 250gb which is a good 70$ cheaper, but less iops. Hard decision so who knows which one Ill order yet.

Did a little paint work to the non window side of the case, I painted it red a whille ago, and was thinking it was ok, but when I put this pc together I was thinking off setting the color would look nicer, so I sprayed it gloss black quick.

So a couple pics of that, the befores can be seen previous in the thread.

Also thinking about doing my hard drive tray too, well 2 of them one for the ssd of coarse once I get it. But not sure if I should do red or black. Probably black.

Ohh and a random pic of a couple Koi I picked up today.

The pinkish white one is about 18inches maybe a tad more, and anothher butterfly koi is the smaller multicolored white one, things look pretty cool once they get bigger. Hes only about 10-12inches long
