Yeah, the FX-55 is not locked upwards
So you can totally eliminate memory out of equations.

Hmm, I got a feeling the 'Clawhammer' CAA2C's would be able to clock higher than what the FX-55 can with sub-zero cooling. That would be an interesting test I believe

auwww... 3GHz on a FX-55 is overwhelming ledi... i'm interested to know the max you can get with the venice with DI .. round 3 perhaps?

On DFI SLI-DR this time around.
With two SLI'ed ultras just can't wait for 3dmark scores to be released.
De_Cruelz and arj are pretty much the king here right now.

i feel proud our lowyat.net also got a hardcore forumer like arj... it proves that malaysian people are not too far behind they people in the west..

I think it's actually cheaper for Westerner to dwelve into crazy overclocking and modding stuff. In general I think it's much more affordable to get parts and hardware overseas as standard of living is high. If I was living in Msia now earning RM I can only dream of building a A64 and whatmore SLI rig

This is what I think: For a Malaysian, a simple, tasty and filling meal will at most cost roughly RM10 a meal including a drink. Let's say to purchase some OCZ value VX ram locally will set you back about RM600 (just a rough currency conversion).

In Australia, a more than filling good quality meal with a drink will also set you back AUD10 on average. However, for me to purchase that similar OCZ ram is AUD170 here! In other words, I would have to save money much much longer before I can get to purchase those OCZ sticks if I were living in Malaysia and earning in RM

Food is cheap and standard of living is low in Malaysia. Factoring out currency exchange, there's a huge gap compared to Australia. If i'm not wrong, Sydney, Australia is ranked the 3rd highest standard of living in the world.

Back on topic, i'm eagerly awaiting some results from arj. He's gonna be my main contender for the 3DMark Hall of Fame . This is gonna be interesting

You've got a point there De_Cruelz. My sis and few of my Aussie friends makes thousands of dollar easily there...De_Cruelz, UNSW?

Back on topic, How is the overclocking progress of those 6800gt...
Is the waterblocks ready yet.

My waterblocks haven't arrived yet, still waiting for it

PCcrazy, yeap I couldn't agree more. I myself have earned at least 2k AUD doing several days worth of design work. Skilled workforce get paid good money here mate

I'm currently waiting for the Maze4 SLI blocks to arrive in Australia. Suppliers told me it should be here by the end of the month. Don't know how accurate is that though.

arj, what blocks did you order? Did you get the NV6800 or the Maze4's too? I think the Maze4's would perform better with higher flowrates and cooling efficiency. The NV6800's seem to be quite restrictive unless you run a separate loop with its own pump. Care to update us on what your upcoming SLI cooling system is gonna be like?

I ordered the Maze4 GPU, wanted to get the NV6800 but decided not to because quite a number of it's users reported problems when using it. As for the watercooling system, I have a Black Ice Extreme 2 radiator MCP650/Eheim 1250 pump and a DD TDX. I might run the GPU blocks and the CPU blocks in one loop or two separate loops if the temp goes up too high.

Hehe if I had the hardware, i'd go two loops without thinking twice. The 6800GT/Ultra's produce crazy amounts of heat. With stock cooler GPU2 is idling at 70C now in an open rig. GPU1 cooled with the Zalman copper cooler is idling at around 49C now.

Btw arj, where did you order your Maze4 blocks from? I might just order it straight from DD as the prices in Australia are expected to be even more expensive compared to DD's including shipping.

I have enough parts for two loops but two radiators on my table is gonna look really messy

I got the blocks from dangerden.com, shipping is US$35. According to the tracking info, it will arrive on the 30th

Hehe you should've ordered the BIX3 and perhaps the new Laing pump too then

I think i'll order direct from DD. Hopefully I don't have to wait too long before my water cooled SLI rig is up and running. When did you order your parts? $35US is quite expensive for something which takes more than 5 days?

On Monday or Tuesday. It's being shipped using FedEx. A 3-4 days shipment would cost US$50.

I think can use potassium hydroxide to absorb CO2

HAha.
how long can the dry ice last???

You do the math xcrue...

Some D.I Party too

how abt the temp??

sorry we have no temperatur probe like arj have .... so saddddddd...
