Going to WC my Q6600 after i get my Ballistix RAMs, just got me some cheap vinyl tubes, so i'm testing the loop. Hopefully will be getting around 50c on load, and 30 something once i get a nice Thermochill.

i got a friend who tried water cooling on quad core... giving about minimum 7'C improvement compare to my air cooling using zalman heatsink...

Further improvement should be possible assuming he used a basic kit.

Now planning to use the below in search for a quadcore superclock suicide run.

- Liquid Metal TIM (Coolabratories)
- Zerex 50/50 with Distilled water
- Thermochill PA120.3 (maybe i'll dunk it in ice)
- Secondary pump...who knows, maybe a D5

My mission is 4ghz for 4 cores tongue.gif

Here's my lahling in loop testing

Heard Storm88 is at the hospital due to his wifey giving birth, or so i heard lah, so getting that new thermochill is going to take time.

My Windows Vista generously donated by Jinaun has been lost in the mail. Great fking job Posmalaysia, i bloody love you guys. No point waiting, knowing Malaysian regular post.

My RAMs got delayed by Crucial due to a bad batch so remanufacturing was in order. Crap. Should be here by next week.

Atleast my MOSFET coolers from Hwoarang45 should arrive with the rest of the above on monday and tuesday. Need to keep the 680i cool before i can do any clocking.

Mouser electronics is delaying my shipment of Silver Micas from Cornell Dubilier, Bourns Trimpots and AVX wet slug tantalums due to stock issue....WTF.

Damn, everything is late!

Bro, if you planning to cool your CPU only. You certainly dont need a Thermochill as there is almost no difference in performance if u compare between a normal switech double rad to Thermochill PA120.3. Kind of overkill.

If u really want a thermochill and reach your doorstep fast, order it from DangerDen. Will reach your doorstep in 4 working days if u use EMS. hehe

Well this has 4 cores instead of the usual 2, so i'd appreciate any increase in delta and possible heat saturation levels possible smile.gif

Plus i might as well dunk it into ice for better peformance or use it as a heat transfer mechnanism for a possible evaporator, depending on how much cooling i need done, although an IHS lap would be a first solution. Shawty is donating some MX-2, which has superb thermal characteristics, all in all this is going to be an interesting first foray into WCing.

Although the Storm G4 is not suited for quad core use, for now, i guess she'll have to hold tongue.gif

Checked Dangerden, no stock.....
