hhhm. nice job.
very neat too.

ps, is that a mushkin PSU i spot?

Wow.. but then suddenly no electricity how ler..? got back up power to prevent ice from melting..?

We need benches ere' son. Come on son, get some

nope....the CPU area is totally 100% air tight. So there will be no ice there...just coldness of around -70c. Don't worry, it won't kill your mobo or chip.....in fact, your proc will love the coldness.

Added on October 18, 2007, 9:27 pmI have a UPS to power up a secondary PSU which connects 3 80mm Delta FFBs. The fans will blow around the cpu area the prevent any condensation.

siapa want to spncer us hardware to bench? lolz

also i made a ram cooler in preparation to the cascade for benching..

well as they say pic say a thousand words..

but crappy pics a hundred words

sorry for really shit quality photos. using hand phone cam.. will take nice pics when i can





fans are 2 x 92mm Delta FFB0912HHE, they are slower than screamers but provide preety good flow with out the gila noise..

woah nice ram fans, does give a sense of "extreme" feeling lol

although if i may suggest, maybe shorten the stands a weee bit to have airflow concentrated on the rams rather than having it scattered throughout the area, possible to get better cooling. OR! maybe do some modding to get some heatpipes/alu fins attached to the rams, and sticking to the same fan setup. im thinking something along the lines of having a proc heatsink attached to rams and having 2x 120mm fans blowing ROFL!

what ye think bout that?

haha good idea , but the rams would get too hot mate... lolz.. teh stands are really tall because my hr-05 is really tall... lolz

i wonder if you can "branch" out ur cascade to work like watercooling, like 1 block for cpu 1 for gpu etc... if can you can cascade up ur rams

would be DAMN interesting to see those MAD oc'ings especially on DDR3's

It wouldn't be worth the effort to cascade the rams....phase change would be better but also considered overkill. A nice cfm fan would be more than sufficient to cool the rams.

And yes...i can make multiple evaps. Perhaps dual or triple evaps.

cascade cool the rams too may be ?? hehe

ain't worth the effort....my rams are very cool even at 2.4v. With my cascade on my CPU....the area around it is also cold. My NB temps is only 33c with the NB volts to the max.

dude, you got repair phase changers too or not? Seems amok needs his fixed, which was made by Bulky. Some brazing mostly

oh yes...i do....building and also servicing or repairs....no probs

wah seems like amok and bulkhy are coming back.. the old hands versus the new guys. ... were still noobs compare to u guys man...

Sure or not....i was using a phase rig 4 years back....before bulkhy. haha...just joking here...but i its true about the phase. Was using it long ago. Everyday is a learning process.

ya lah.. that time i dunno u mah..lol... that time still noob like hell.. see oc was like WOAH>>>

For those who are still new to extreme cooling....here's some insulation guide.

We'll start off by insulating the back of the mainboard....using a can of clear spray.

just spray around the cpu area...i did 3 layers of lacquer just to be safe.


Insulated with neoprene and foam tape

Now to insulate the front as well....using foam tape.


even the under-side of the CPU needs to be protected. Dielectric grease or silicon grease is used.


Apply evenly on the socket with slight pressure as you don't want to damage the pins with too much force. You can either use your fingers or a paint brush to do the job.



Dielectric grease spread out nice and even.

Next, just intall your processor and apply a thin layer of thermal compound. For me, I use Anabond thermal compound as i find it suitable for phase change. Artic Silver 5 or AS5 solidify under extreme temps...definitely not ideal.


Nice and even spread


Final layer of foam is added to the insulation and you are good to go.

Nice guide..looks like a commando to me..hehe

miss my commando already.... bro wait for my dfi plak later kay

its now commando on steroids.....so far working good
