QUOTE(basSist @ Dec 8 2006, 04:08 PM) yeah hehe. ya i think my room quite hot plus the air flow of my case not really good. [i]1x80mm(case) intake and 1x120mm exhaust(case) + 1x80mm (PSU). using a CM 120mm Silent LED fan for ultra. any suggestions to improve the air flow? except a new case suggestion 
To see what a cooler case will do for you, just remove the case covers and watch CPU temps. If it drops measurably, then your case cooling needs attention. Cool the CPU next. Stock coolers do work, but there are more efficient designs around. Don't neglect the power supply. These need good airflow too. And don't fret too much over hard drive heat. Yes there is a limit, but its not nearly as critical as most of the other components in your case.
If you follow these tips, you'll get a lot out of air cooling. Now if money is no object, get yourself an aluminum case with water cooling. And if money is really not an object.. Buy me one too!
Source: OverClockers.com & look for "It's the Case Stupid..."dunno it'll help u a lot or not, cause it sure helps me  This post has been edited by E-J@1: Dec 8 2006, 07:52 PM |

so which one is more importany? cpu temp or core temp? btw, core temp is in the cpu core, meaning the temp mesurement is in the cpu itself, rite? cpu temp is the whole cpu temp ka? both core? (the whole cpu) where's the temp measument? on the board? (  really confuse here) This post has been edited by E-J@1: Dec 20 2006, 11:26 AM |

QUOTE(J-Slade @ Dec 24 2006, 02:27 AM) Any idea if Arctic Silver 5 will ever harden after a very long time? I have changed many heatsinks but it seems that everytime I take it out, the thermal paste is just as how it was when I first applied it... but then again, I didn't leave it on for very long. leave after 200 hours... it should harden by that time |

QUOTE(lolhalol @ Dec 25 2006, 02:49 PM) no wrong... tims should not harden . if harden pls change. its job is to be smi fluid so that it can fill up gaps. if it s hard then how to do its job. QUOTE(J-Slade @ Dec 25 2006, 08:05 PM) I think this makes more sense.. Hmmm but I guess a branded TIM like Arctic Silver 5 shouldn't harden over time right? Btw, anyone here used a peltier with their air cooled heatsink before? Whats the results? Got much improvement over the cooling? ooopppsss, sori, i thought u were asking the sink in thingy  my mistake |

QUOTE(sHawTY @ Jan 6 2007, 10:11 PM) But still the HR-01 doesn't come with any 120mm fan clips, so if you want to put a 120mm fan on the heatsink, you have to lock the fan using cable ties...  yup, the HR didn't came with the fan wire clip, but Thermalright stated that the HR does comes with fan clip (latest version - not in design but in their package) & it can be purchase separately but the thing is that they didn't include the fan wire clip in their accessories list ::Link::that's why i want u to check it out, it'll help a lot for those have limited budget that limits them between HR-01 or Ultra-90 if u selling the HR which the package includes fan wire clips  but if didn't include, i bet the fan wire clips will cost around rm25, better u add some more to the budget for HR + fan wire clips & get Ultra-120 This post has been edited by E-J@1: Jan 7 2007, 02:38 PM |

QUOTE(sHawTY @ Jan 7 2007, 02:46 PM) Well, for starters, i don't see any thermalright bulkers bring in that fan wire clip, as a result, it's really hard to get...  And, thermalright says this: Fan wire clips are now included in all HR-01 packages. If your package doesn't include a set, mostly likely you've purchased an earlier version. If that's the case, please contact your local retailer, or write to sales@thermalright.com The problem is, many suppliers that have stock for HR-01 is the old stock which doesn't come with the fan wire clips... So, my bet is, don't buy the HR-01, buy the Ultra 120 lah! so u bringing in the old package, then for those who looking for HR-01 better consider Ultra-120 (fork out ur money a bit la) if no budget, then Ultra-90 is the answer to ur solution  |

QUOTE(sHawTY @ Jan 7 2007, 02:51 PM) I don't know either i'm bringing in the old HR-01 or the new HR-01, as the answer is with my supplier... If they got new stocks of HR-01, then you guys will get those new HR-01 that come the fan clip, and if they don't then that means you're not one of the lucky guy.. I will ask my supplier bout' this later  hopefully the new package, then will get some ppl buying this & ends the bulk sooner than expected just can't wait to get my hands on those XP-120, really wanna cool my proc a.s.a.p.  |

QUOTE(Doom @ Jan 9 2007, 10:47 AM) Who say cannot go down to 25c.... my C2D can cooled down to 22c under aircond room set at 22 degree also with the use of TR HR-01. Previously my P4 630 downed to 20c with the use of TR Si-120 at 22c ambient temperature.... not everybody can afford using air-cond in their room la, unless the person asking already got air-cond in their room... for anybody thinking want to install air-cond to get 25 degrees for u proc better buy all swiftech high-end WC, cheaper & don't have to worry bout ur utilities bill no point discussing ur temp in air-cond room = it's like i'm from the north pole discussing with u all here in hot hot hot Malaysia about my pentium d stock heatsink & how low it can get This post has been edited by E-J@1: Jan 9 2007, 11:43 AM |
