QUOTE(akachester @ Jun 12 2007, 02:43 PM) Gosh,..20c?Thats crazy..LOL..Anyone on DFI infinity care to try Noctua as well and see whether it can also do the same..LOL.. More reduction in temps!   Stock Northbridge heatsink on 1.35Volts: 65°C  PCCooler HB-771s on 1.35Volts: 37°C  PCCooler northbridge heatsink is so great, it reduces 28°C Degrees compared to stock northbridge heatsink! |

QUOTE(Skylinestar @ Jun 13 2007, 07:33 PM) can post a picture of the cooler on your dark mobo? Kasi pinjam one digital camera to me, and i'll take the picture and post it here.  QUOTE(yehlai @ Jun 13 2007, 07:36 PM) wao.. the perf is nice, wonder why Coolice sold it. Because on Passive mode, the Noctua NC-U6 is much much better than the PCCooler HB-771s.  |

QUOTE(akachester @ Jun 13 2007, 08:56 PM) Gosh, i think this might be due to the heatpipe design at the bottom. And the good thing it comes with a fan..Really nice performance there..But y are you selling?lol.. Adala. |

QUOTE(emilz @ Jun 14 2007, 04:48 AM) nope he want to go for water cooling Betul la tu.Dedua. Yes neoxz. I'm buying noctua & watercooling. Watercooling for NB & Noctua for SB. However, i found out that it's not safe to use waterblock with hook pin NB heatsink. That's why i'm thinking of getting two NC-U6 now.  |

QUOTE(toughnut @ Jun 15 2007, 08:56 AM) i think that's what make that cooler excel. direct heat transfer and dissipation It's true.Now, lets wait for the "otai" in heatsink to start making thier heatsink on this type of direct contact.  You know the one i'm talking about. |

QUOTE(akachester @ Jun 18 2007, 11:01 PM) Ok, just installed my HR-05 SLi and tested it on my system. Very complicated indeed as it really clashes with alot of things especially with my Noctua on the SB. Now that's what i call supertight. Tested the idle temperature of my NB using the same thermal compound as previously - AS5. This is the result i have obtained : DFI Stock Cooler - 54c  Noctua NC - U6 - 48c TR HR-05 SLi - 45c Keep in mind i am no expert tester. Just installed it as what i always do and look at the idle temperature. Load wise, i did not test it on my Noctua so cant really comment. Seems like the TR is working better for me. Might be slightly due to the HSF facing the fan of my GC. Impressed by how it performed and the size.. These are some of the pictures. Look at the size difference between the Noctua and TR and how close they are together on my current setup. Almost hit my sound card as well Any idea to place it better? : Dude, your HR-05 SLi meet directly with the NC-U6 kah?  |

QUOTE(akachester @ Jun 28 2007, 08:34 AM) With my HR-05SLi touching my U6, will there be any problem in heat dissipation? Yes.And that's why you have to sell that NC-U6 to me. No, seriously, because the heat of the NB, SB & the 8800 will crippled up in one area, and i see no fans are attached to any of the NB @ SB chipset at all. You might wanna use an Evercool VC-RF for the SB as it's more than enough to cool the SB with the VC-RF. All and all, that's why you have to sell that NC-U6 to me. |

QUOTE(akachester @ Jun 28 2007, 08:43 AM) My 8800 is going to suck air from the casing and exhaust it to the outsite. With the HR05 at the front of the fan, it will be able to help dissipate the heat from the HR05. The thing is, when u crippled up the NB, SB heatsink at the same place in the picture there, where i know you don't want it to be like that, you are directing the heat of the NB & SB directly to the 8800.You know yourself that the 8800 series are quite hot. [Still cooler than any 2900XT, sorry ATI Kipas Susah Mati, it's the truth ].And by doing that, you are making your 8800 hotter & hotter. That's why you want to change the SB to the VC-RF and change the position of the HR-05 Sli so that the fins will go a little further than the 8800 fan, so that the fan won't suck the heat from the NB. You still have to sell me that NC-U6 liao. |

New chipset cooler from Thermalright.
You all might be asking what's so special about these 2 new chipset coolers compared to the old HR-05 & HR-05 SLi right? Well, for starters, these two new chipset coolers is made to fit with an 80MM fan on it. And what's more, the chipset cooler itself came with a metal clip to hold the fan on the heatsink, no more fugly cable ties. Plus, the fins are wider and longer, thus, improves heat dissipation. But, [there's always a but ] the HR-05 IFX is still using one U heatpipe. I've always wished that the HR-05 IFX to come with two U heatpipe like Noctua NC-U6.

QUOTE(PowerSlide @ Jul 28 2007, 06:56 PM) presenting deepcool chita..cheaper than hr-05 and perform jus about the same The weakness on this heatsink is that it doesn't have any connection between the top heatpipe and the heatsink base.If it got some welding, that'll help this heatsink to perform higher than HR-05. |

QUOTE(PowerSlide @ Jul 28 2007, 08:28 PM) if like dat bro mebb put some thermal paste on the spot heatpipe touch the base would help? Maybe, but not much, as thermal conductivity of TIM is not as strong as welding.Maybe some custom made copper welding on top of the heatpipe to connect the top of the heatpipe and the top of the base will do. I believe if that is done, this heatsink may perform a lot better than HR-05. There's one more thing to note, that heatsink is a full copper heatsink which is strong in conducting heat but weak in releasing it. |

QUOTE(rockmaniac85 @ Aug 4 2007, 01:01 AM) TT extreme spirit vs TR hr-05, which one better ah? how's price and performance for both of em? If you're looking at those two models, HR-05 will perform better than the TT extreme spirit.This is because the ES [extreme spirit] has a very thick base which will slow down the heat transfer, plus, the fins of ES is too small, which will affect the heat dissipation. While for HR-05, the base is at a good thickness. Plus the fins of HR-05 is larger thus will improve the heat dissipations. Eitherway, no chipset cooler can beat the performance of Noctua NC-U6. It's the king of chipset cooler. |

QUOTE(E-J@1 @ Aug 4 2007, 12:23 PM) hehe, wait for Thermalright HR-05 IFX comes out That wouldn't do any good. coupled it with hi-performance 80mm fan  Trust me. Maybe just 1-2 degrees better than the old HR-05, but certainly not better than the NC-U6. High performance fan for the NB HSF? Think again, high performance fan will give so much vibrations. You don't want vibrations on your NB HSF. Why? Because most of the NB chipset nowadays [except for X38 chipset] has a naked die, they don't have any IHS, which the area that can support the base of the NB HSF is too small. And when vibtration happens, heat transfer will be even worse if you compare it to when you're using a low speed fan. Been there, done that. |

Original Design Of Thermalright HR-05 IFX before they reduce the heatpipe to using only one U heatpipe.
Stupid move from Thermalright.   Look carefully under the tubes, there you'll see a NB heatsink with 2 U heatpipes. Damn, if they were to go back using 2 U heatpipes for the HR-05 IFX, this would be the greatest NB heatsink in the history. |

I don't do funny assumptions, i make assumptions based on my experience.I talk with my experience when i'm using NC-U6 with a TMD 70MM fan. Shim pad? Used it, but it's not working.
