i changed the thermal paste on mine and it runs pretty cool.. just that mine is making some ticking sound now so i have no choice but to change it soon..

doesn't really bother me (the ticking sound) but i can try whether it runs cooler as well on the new cooler..

How about getting some customised waterblock from the Nazi if you have the cash. drool.gif

Has anyone tested the 704-2BTA bios? It works surprisingly well for me.

I use that bios and i run my TCCD using yellow slot instead of orange slot @ 2.7V. No problem for me so far.

Just now my chipset fan suddenly went monster sound, I have no idea how come this happened. I have to keep adjust the fan until the monster sound gone. Anyone experienced this before?
*
What kind of monster sound? Is it your pci-e graphics card touching on it?

That is normal and it should work the same with the one showing CPU : PWM : Chipset.

hey guys
i've installed the vantec iceberq4 (not pro). first of all, it does NOT fit!!! vmad.gif i mean there are 2 clips. 1 pin-clip went in fully, the other one has only the head in, can't seem to press it thru the mobo ori hole. antonio_zth: can help me ah? the clips can't even go in fully, let alone 100% heat transfer leh... cry.gif

anyway i couldn't be bothered since it is not droping down, i screwed everything back and am using it now. if you ask me about temperatures, the stock cacat fan 46deg @ 6800rpm. vantec with the thermal compound that came with the fan gets 46deg @ 4800rpm. these figures are done with BT, DC++, ICQ, MSN on. THAT IS ALL! damn cacat rite... i also don't know what is wrong. (figures are done with smartguardian on AUTO).

antonio say he gets Chipset = 38c (idle) 41c (Full load)... how u get it leh antonio? i mean i don't really care coz i bought the vantec to replace the failing stock fan. but since i paid so much i my as well get the best out of it right... someone help me leh... sad.gif

btw here are some pics that some of you guys might want... vantec iceberq 4.
*
It fits but not perfectly, you have to tilt both the clips sideway a bit and push it in with force. I wouldn't recommend upgrading the chipset cooler because I personally think the original one with some AS treatment is more than enough.

I recommend you to plug it all for stability.

dually matched?? wat do you mean? those 2x1gb twin pack?

Yup, 2x1GB will never be as clockable as 1x1GB. But when it comes to gaming 2GB performs much better compared to 1GB.

does anybody know wats the general guideline for pwm temp... pwm temp is bothering from OCing higher.... coz i set da pwm temp alarm at 50... is tis to low...
*
PWMIC can sustain high temperatures. Get a fan and put it on top of the PWMIC area. That will cool it down if it's too hot. 60 degrees shouldn't cause any stability problems.

oic... single channel... my apologies

afaik 512mb sticks uses higher quality chips and hence are more overclockable

1gb sticks have higher capacity but are less overclockable coz their chips are slightly crappier.

1GB stick are less overclockable doesn't mean they use crappier chip.
