» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « vincent, i guess the temp is still the same and doesnt exceed 67 just like i tried before even if put it for almost an hour...  but i notice that the scorpion fin has became hot when i touch it... besides that i think that the s-1283 can perform better during higher temp coz when i increase the vcore the temp still doesnt exceed 67 and at certain time the temp will decrease but too bad pc bsod due to unstable clock before i can take a snap... |

How is the performance? bro refer to tkh post.... i think its on the 1st page...  dont worry la... the scorpion can performce very well and its very quiet too... there is no reason doubting the scorpion as imo it can handle high temp easily......

QUOTE(emilz @ Mar 21 2008, 04:36 AM) wow 10 pages already yeah..... have to thanks vincent for the great and detail review... dont think this is a mini review though....by the way the red scorpion really kick ass QUOTE(Downcast @ Mar 21 2008, 10:42 AM) not should okay.. is confirm can lar.. this is my previous CM 5 fit with S1283 bro, u should go for the red scorpion la.... i bet it would be more matching with red in color MSI mobo... » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « confirm can close ur side panel window as well... so no problem with this casing...  QUOTE(anggajaya @ Mar 21 2008, 11:49 AM) bro, wat voltage in bios reading? jus wanna compare since Iam using an E6600 as well, thanks.. and for the rest, when U guys show the temps, pls include how much U put the vcore In bios reading, I guess it's necessarily an important thing to be told. bro i have tried as high as 1.4v and temp doesnt go any higher than 60... average is around 55-60 on load but seldomly reach 60c....btw im using e6550 and i think the scorpion perform better during high temp thats y even u put high vcore also wont matter... xigmatek rocks  |

QUOTE(emilz @ Mar 22 2008, 10:07 PM) @fesick ~ nice result u got there mate i have increase my vdimm to 2.1 which imo its quite high for a kingston value 667 ram... and my timing is 5-5-5-15 which i think its quite loose for me... so overall i think its my ram problem that doesnt allow me to go for higher fsb...ham_revilo~have u increase ur ram Voltage n how bout ur timing QUOTE(justin78 @ Mar 23 2008, 02:17 AM) From all those good result shown by you all, I think I will get myself 1 unit of Scorpion and test it out, but this can only be done next month, this month already over spend. better be fast... anyways if can get the scorpion though rather then the plain vanilla s-1283...  |

QUOTE(tkh_1001 @ Mar 25 2008, 02:55 PM) they are preparing it to be used on future octa-core proc i think octa-core the dimension of the proc will be the same... isnt it?? imo the 4 pipe is because of the competitor of other brand cooler always uses 4 pipes... and 4 pipes are usually always more efficient compare to 3 pipes... so i guess that is y they create a new 4 pipe just to compete with other brands only.... and most importantly make money out of us...

QUOTE(tkh_1001 @ Mar 26 2008, 02:04 PM) bro... did u just came back from the future ? look at the cpu-z core speed! bout that... the cpu-z sometimes goes crazy and i also didnt notice when i took the screen shot... but the actual speed should be 480x7.... QUOTE(fesick @ Mar 26 2008, 03:57 PM) ya..thats the 1st try.. i think with that low temp u can go for higher fsb... anyway 495x7 is the max for me... maybe due to my ram...but the 2nd test much lower..the temp around 49c but its on aircond temp..still waiting if got time will do it iwif room temp.. QUOTE(ir1z @ Mar 26 2008, 04:25 PM) damn revilo did u just pump a trainer to boost ur cpu speed to that amount hahahaha.......... no trainer la... just xigmatek only...
