    Monster Rig.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm happy with them, I just thought that with the big radiator the temps would be lower. But I guess sooner or later you hit a lower limit and you're not going lower unless you get extreme................;)

    Monster Rig.

    Not as good as I hoped really, idle is around 27-28c with a load temp of 33-34c. That's at a room temp of 21c with my CPU @ 9x275 and GPU max OC'd at 450/550. The GPU idles at 25c with a max of 30c so far. I was really hoping for a bit lower, we'll see what I get with the new fans when they...

    Monster Rig.

    Well, I got both of the Swifty radiators installed and such, but I still need some different fans. The aluminum Evercools don't fit, they are slightly larger than a standard 120mm fan, so 3 won't fit next to each other, 2 side-by-side is pretty tight also. And I need 3 pin fan connectors to...

    Is the only reason you mod to show off?

    Nothing wrong with a lot of pics, I like pics. A pic is worth a thousand words and they also tend to back-up what you're saying...............;) Long live a ton of pics.......by the way, I post a ton of pics also...............:)

    Is the only reason you mod to show off?

    To make the case mine and not like every othere off the shelf sort of thing. Another reason is just because I can.............;) Better cooling performance is another good reason.

    Dell XPS Renegade

    I've worked on to many of them to like them............:eek: I don't hate Dell computers because they work for alot of people who do everyday type of tasks. I just hate working on them and their bloated software packages.

    Anybody else use only the onboard audio?

    Using a sound card takes the load off the CPU that the onboard normally causes. I'm not sure if you'll get 5 FPS, but you'll gain a few anyway.............:)

    Monster Rig.

    If I can't get the temps I like with just the one pump, I'm going to go with 2. I still have 2 D4 sitting around here doing nothing and might as well put them to good use...............:D As for the name changing, I thought it was time for a change for a while...............:eek: But I...

    Monster Rig.

    Some get lucky and some don't, like everything else with OC'ing it's the luck of the draw. And with the high cost of parts, why take chances, that is unless you're made out of money or someone else is buying your parts.......;)

    Still have Pc-3200?

    Only for testing and benching or hard core gaming like a lan..............:D I really don't see any reason in the world to run a max OC all week while I'm doing office work...................:eek: And to reset to my different OC, it's a simple matter of booting into the bios, going to the...

    Still have Pc-3200?

    There's a lot of internal factors to take into account also, the excessive voltage also degrades the circuits over time also. They were only designed to withstand so much...........;) Kinda like running 30 amps through your houehold line that was setup to take only 20, sooner or latter something...

    Anybody else use only the onboard audio?

    Been retired for sometime now........:eek: Living off a small retirement and disability...........:cool: After 2 helicopter crashes and a few small wars, the only killing happens on the computer, but that's not saying that I'd mind going back on active duty if I were called upon...........:cool:
