So, does the Red scorpion performs better than the normal HDT-S1283?

interm of heatsink is the same... interms of fan is depend...... redscor have lower Rpm fan hence lower noise.... and airflow is not proven yet since no1 have a proper tools to measure it...

Thx vincentlaw. I'm using Lian-Li PCA07 casing. would it fit?

shud be yes since its an ATX casing...

imo its about the same the most 1c or 2c diff only... if u are thinking of getting one, the next question should be do u like bling bling or normal vanila xigmatek ...

yeah..... red scorpy bling bling FTW!

darn....cant post new benchies for TIM application "type A" now...

the new mobo keep on crashing.... have to reformat i guess

must remember post when u get it to start up...
love to see how dfi board perform and some condition A performance...

any shop in LYP selling this Red-Scorpion?

i dont think so u can find that in LYP.... so far only ckhoong got bring this cooler in from US( if i am not mistaken)....

but he macam sudah habis stock already

not US... is taiwan XD

ok guys... heres the test for TIM application for "type A method" VS TIM application on IHS....

the "type A" application was done on my new DFI mobo... while the application on IHS is by using my old temp bench on 1st page(using gigabyte p35-ds3) as the reference....

sadly to say my new mobo some how needs a lil bit more vcore to run near to the same clock speed that i can previously achieve with my p35-ds3..so i try to get those settings as close as possible...

the setup settings are as below with both in aircond room


TIM application on IHS
clock speed: 475x8=3.8ghz
vcore: 1.3v in bios




TIM application using "type A" method
clock speed: 470x8=3.76ghz
vcore: 1.31 in bios







i guess maybe "method A" is almost identical in terms of performance with method on IHS then

both have diff clockspeed as in ur DFI have lower clockspeed(470FSB) and ur gigabute have 475FSB.... it is best to compore on same board since there are difference in vcore and etc...

this is the stock TIM provided by xigmatek and reading taken just before i remove the scorpion



here is the result using TX-2 and applying using condition B....



im not sure its the applying method or what but i know the result is amaze although the reading all are done in room temp (no air cond)... still cant beat fesick temp though

thats the best i can do as i malas want to use back my old mobo to run test

i tried to keep things to best balance... IMO just the slight difference wont give us much of a temp performance increment...

n do take note that as i am running with higher vcore... i did lower down the clock to balance it up... as temp is affected by both clock n voltage from what i have tried so far...

bro ham_revilo and tkh_1001,can u guys pls upload the idle temp for ur current setup..

sweat, i installed the xigmatek s1283 in my cpu and ended up the fan cannot lock proper since it's way too narrow to my st75zf.... maybe i should post a picture how it looks like?

how come i canot reach 3.6ghz?450x8 n vcore pump up also cannot.izzit sumthing wrg?mayb my ram the bottleneck?

shouldnt u post this at overclockers united section??

anyway try pump up ur vdimm to 2.0v and see how...


no prob... later in the evening i will do it....

will do later on.. now bz tweaking mah new biatch...

yeah u shud

whats ur ram divider ratio? isit set to 1:1?

bro..careful wif ur rig ah..later u tweak² ur pc go fly~haha
