Remember to use silent fan on the NC-U6.

As high speed fan won't work on NC-U6.
Plus, if you use high speed fan for the NC-U6, it will result to high vibration which is not good for your chipset which will result to bad contact between the chipset and the base.

And when the contact between the base and the chipset is bad, the thermal transfer wont be good.

If you have a way to find those rubber strips like what you get in either Noctua NH-U12F and in the Thermalright Ultra 120 packaging, then that's good. The rubber strips will lower the vibration produced by the fan.

I suggest using either 60MM @ 700MM fan that runs on not more than 2000RPM

By looking at the motherboard temperature.

What's your point?
This is a chipset cooler thread.
Not aircooling thread.

Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 is Good.
Not fat like those huge towers.

Cheap too.

My bad.
I thought you were looking for your CPU cooler.

Good question, i've always been thinking about the same thing.
Can anyone help us in answering this question?

38Degrees for Intel P965 chipset is very good IMO.

IMO, looking at the base of Extreme spirit II from TT is too thick, that's not good liao.
When the base is too thick, it takes a very long time for the heat to be transferred from the base to the heatpipes.

I vote for NC-U6 too.
Why go for HR-05 SLi when it's proven to be beaten by NC-U6?

NC-U6 reduces chipset temperature up to 5 degrees lower than HR-05 SLi.

Simple, upgrade to a better chipset heatsink.

Did u add a fan on that heatsink?

IMO, the gold one is better, as it'll be easy to fix a fan on top of it compared to the blue one.

Ko sorang je yang gila nak guna heatsink tu untuk chipset.

The best would be Noctua NC-U6, but then, Noctua NC-U6 won't fit on your motherboard chipset since the chipset is right under the graphic card.

The best for your motherboard would be HR-05 SLi.

You can use a 70mm fan to be fitted on the NC-U6.
But, becareful on one thing.

You must find a 70mm fan that is very low in speed & very low in vibration AKA uses ball bearing.

This is because NC-U6 doesn't work well with high speed fan.
I've tried with three 70mm fan before, and what i found is, when i'm using low speed 70mm fan with ball bearing, that fan gives me the lowest temps compared to another two fans which is high in speed and another one is not using ball bearing.

I know about that heatsink.
But the thing about it will be sold separately is almost impossible.

How much will it be?
I bet the price will be much much higher than an NC-U6 or HR-05 SLi.

When will DFI Start selling it then?
You know how slow DFI in everything that they do.

No man, u've misunderstood what i just said.
What i mean is, that heatsink does come together with the DFI Lanparty UT 680i motherboard, but, it is also available for sale separately if someone is interested in buying it for their own motherboard.

Capiche?



I don't remember what fan i use for my previous NC-U6 [before i sold my NC-U6 ].
What i can remember is, i bought that 70mm fan at Vcool's shop.

The speed oso kenot remember la, it's been a long time d.

PCCooler HB-771s northbridge heatsink is very very good!
Reduces 20°C compared to stock northbridge heatsink on my DFI Infinity P965-S motherboard!

Northbridge voltage is on 1.35Volts.

Stock Northbridge heatsink on 1.35Volts: 65°C
PCCooler HB-771s on 1.35Volts: 40°C
