It's worth it if you want to automate your cooling and not have to adjust knobs all the time. Also if your rig has plenty of stuff you wanna monitor, quite worth it.

So much stuff. Haha. Iinm a lot of fan controllers have issue with running fans at low speed. Something to do with how the controller handles the speed. Lamptron's speed handling is different than others, iirc. The recon from memory controls the fans using voltage regulation, so by default the excess power that's suppose to go to the fans are instead taken by the fan controller nd converted to heat.

And controlling rpm can never be totally accurate anyway. Lol. Even paper specs for fans are wrong sometimes.

I don't think there's a kit to watercool GPUs. You meed to buy the wb separately. Cheapest kit would be either the swiftech one or one of the xspc ones. About RM500 cheapest. Then add about 300 for your GPU wb.

Yeah, lamptron controls slightly different. That's why their components if you see also, quite different from typical controller. But I've heard of lamptron controllers burning also. Lol.

You do know the recon is partially a smart fan controller, right? Maybe settings adjusted wrong? Lol.

Well, if I remember correctly la, the controller can throttle the fans automatically depending on your system's loads. Of course if you set it to manual control then it should do that. Got two modes, auto and manual.

Whoaaaa. That's the old aquaero. Good to hear its still working.

You bought the MPS flow sensor bro?

I think with everything also see luck la. just like my ocz vector. It just died on me after I flash my mobo bios. have to send rma.

Bitfenix recon you mean.

Did you ask niclasteoh if he's still doing lamptron? Maybe can get the cw611 from him.

Looking forward to seeing that cw611 work.

does speedfan work for you? old software, but can give it a shot. haha.

I would advise against a single fan controller. might end up doing more damage than good.

Shouldn't be too hard to figure out. all the best bro. Haha.

Lamptron's method of fan control is similar to that of PWM and does not follow the typical fan controller which adjusts voltage. Well, that's what I read before la anyway.

If the fan controller adjusts fan speeds by controlling the voltage, and if the circuit is by default 12V, where's the excess going to go if say you put your fan to spin at 5V? Excess of 7V has to go somewhere.

oh yeah, need to summon kizwan. Last I checked he was interested in the CW611 also. LOL

Not sure what MPS stands for either. But it's aquacomputer's flow sensor. Looks something like this right?

I have no idea whether newer or not. Lol. I know the one I posted can plug via USB la. haha.

Nice piece of equipment you got bro.

Heatgun! Haha.

Tutorials can be found on YouTube, look for e22's channel or primochill's channel.

Chemically treated water? What, lab grade distilled is it?

Hardware shop. Ace hardware has skil brand. less than 200

honestly, I think this is kinda ridiculous.

LOL. won't argue there.

eh. infernoaswen, did you try xspc flx premium tube in your tests?

I'm not even sure if it's available locally. lol.

Those using coolant, I'm assuming either EK or Mayhem right? No one using Thermochill or XSPC coolant?

Edit: anyone wanna join me buy some EC6 coolant? Pretty much legendary coolant. Lol.

Just in case no one knows. XSPC bought rights to Thermochill long ago, and they're now making the EC6.

No white though.

Red, blue, green, clear and clear UV

I would, but I've seen it stain, so

Red, blue, green, clear, uv clear

Oh well. If itchy can try ice dragon nano fluid. Lol

Bro, block reached you yet?
