( bend alot ) Have one question here about TTBT. I locked the bracket ( which stick to the HSF base) horizontally. I think its the rite way. Or should i lock it vertically for better cooling? Thanks.

That's why we were somewhat surprised to get two heatsinks on heat pipes from an Austria-headquartered Noctua for our tests. Malaysia have well know HSF manufactures??

Malaysian dont like it.. but foreigner favor it. This post has been edited by yehlai: Jan 19 2007, 06:03 PM

Not planning o'c then stock cooling is good enough. Maybe just add one or two 120mm case fan then can run long hrs alrdy. This post has been edited by yehlai: Jan 19 2007, 11:41 PM

Dont mislead ppl. But the right thing is.. get cheaper one if budget really tight. QUOTE(Swaye @ Jan 20 2007, 12:35 AM) i'm planning to get everything along with the planned rig ... should be somewhere along the lines of E6600 DS3 250GB SATA2 8800GTS Enermax liberty 500watts i dont really plan to overclock... i'm just wondering if adding a third party cooler would prolong the lifespan of my hardware? @yehlai hmmm i see.. any reccomendations for 120mm fans? and care to give an explanatino with you suggestion? any feedback is greatly appreciated If not going to o'c i also suggets u get Biostar 965PT. This mobo is very good and its also cheap!! Not necesssary to add 3rd party cooling if not going to o'c i think. If u want better air flow inside case then just add 120mm fan.. i will help cool down the temp a bit. About the lifespan.. Intel claim tht if run proc @stock clock, the proc can last 8-10 years. But if im wrong, other pls correct me. This post has been edited by yehlai: Jan 22 2007, 10:56 AM

Quite easy but will need you to unmount your heatsink to exectute it. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Just get some ramsinks from moderno or lyn (hint: thermaltake ones are cheap and pretty okay) and stick it on the base of your typhoon. Some thing like this [attachmentid=184509] More details about the discussion here. Wanted to create a new topic for this but scared mods bising. Besides, I only got like 2c improvement (without the sink-in) time for a this RM 15 + 20 mins mod. (took me 15 freakin minutes to mount it back coz of the stupid push-pin thing!) Hey i've done the same thing too.. But i put 28mm (5000rpm) fan instead of ram sinks. The temp drop 3-4C. I also think to open a new thread to share.. but need to take out the HSF and take pic 1st. We can do together la.. This post has been edited by yehlai: Jan 22 2007, 11:35 AM

I back home around 6.40pm... I start from around 8pm take out all the part from my PC and install back all the thing and the Noctua cooler till 11.15pm ++... whew...so tired... Keep on forget this and that...then need to take out the exhaust fan several time... From what I can when I start the PC, the temp for my PD 820 is 57C, then it drop to 56C just in several seconds, then after several seconds, it drop again to 55C, then drop to 54C, then to 53C, but then it increase to 54C..then now stay at 56C as my emule start downloading movie... From the result, it not impresive me as I thought it will at least drop till 48-50C after I install it...maybe I need to wait for AS5 to sink first... So, currently, Idle will be 53-55C...load don't know yet coz haven stress it...will report the Idle and load temp after AS5 sink in...� What you guys result, please share... Forget to say, I install using Orientation A (90 degree) as it will block my NC-U6 if I install it using orientation B (180 degree). The cap near the proc there nearly cause me can't install the cooler, but thanks to Noctua great design, the fastening bracket can be adjust, so no problem... As I am first time using those fan clips, it took me about half an hour to fix the fan clips in...I put the fan on right, mean the air push from right to left...I want to make it at left but the NC-U6 block it... my mobo not really suitable to install both NC-U6 and NH-12F, but my mobo stock NB cooler even suck... Now I wonder my casing air flow will be a problem coz the empty space inside the casing now is very little...my PSU want to suck air out but NH-12F also want to suck the air from the little space, here some simulation, sorry for my bad drawing, my art not very good... [attachmentid=184995] Edited: I forget to add my exhaust fan into the simulation... Why dont wanna put the HSF at the opposite possition?? I think it can help to cool your CPU better. Becos now your PSU is blocking the Noctua HSF to suck air and blow it towards the Noctua HS. Moreover your PSU fan is sucking air out.. I think your NB heastsink dont need any air flow to achieve better cooling result. Becoz NC U6 is design to operate passive. http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=10094660 If put the HSF too near to the PSU, i might block your PSU air flow. Causing your PSU running hot. I encounter tht b4. This post has been edited by yehlai: Jan 23 2007, 07:21 PM

After install the backplate to the mobo, you direct screw the heatsink to your mobo before put in to the casing or you screw it after put the mobo in to the casing? This few day I keep thinking of this question. The day I install it after put my mobo in the casing, and it take me quite long time to able to screw both the scews. btw...the heatsink heatpipe is so near to my side panel...not more than 2mm I think... But normally ppl will install HS b4 put mobo in case. Easier to apply AS5 and to put in the HSF.

Yes, agree. Mine is almost impossible to prime stable @ 3.6GHz. Thts why i skip the prime test lol.

Tuniq <RM200 is bargain.
