QUOTE(tkh_1001 @ Apr 22 2008, 02:11 AM) i've some question, hope u dont mind. 1. did u wipe ur redscorpion b4 test is carried out for both heatsink? alot of dust i can see from the picture... 2. why on idle, archilles temp at 4ghz is 40'c vs 4.1ghz is 38'c only? same goes on LOAD for 3.2ghz vs 3.4ghz. 3. from the screw mounting kid comparison picture... do u think that RS will have more pressure on processor compared to achilles? due to the difference in mounting from above and below. and lastly no related question 4. ur processor bracket on mobo seems to be kemek already at the top part.. izzit?

QUOTE(general_odin @ Apr 22 2008, 01:54 AM) 229.... kinda over my budget.... rather get a water cooling for my self wahahhaaa Added on April 22, 2008, 1:56 amaquagate viva selling at RM210 only... compatible with GPU and CPU.... ready assembled... quite good, atlease better than air cooling la... wow that cheap?? i never notice about wc.... anyways how is the performance like? actually its a good idea too, to compare wc with air cooling (xigamtek).... see with around the same price which cooler is the best... QUOTE(tkh_1001 @ Apr 17 2008, 11:05 PM) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « no prob bro... glad i can help to contribute for this thread.... anyways maybe we need more user to test this s1284 for accuracy...

Coz I'm about to receive mine  mine i just apply a very thin layer of TIM into the gaps between the HDT 1st... then i will apply a rice grain method of TIM on the proc IHS QUOTE(ham_revilo @ Apr 22 2008, 02:37 AM) no prob bro... glad i can help to contribute for this thread.... anyways maybe we need more user to test this s1284 for accuracy... agreed...we really need more ppl to test this cooler...once again really thanks alot for the help man!

now we really need a amd user to test it... or not we really dont know how it will perform as only amd proc can fully utilize 4 pipes... hope alive88 can provide us the result asap...
ps:i wonder what will happen to ckhoong sales if the s1284 doesnt do well...

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « refer to this picture , the processor only touch 0.5+1+1+0.5 (left to right ) surface of hsf , total up 3 only . why the temperature decrease 1-3c ? is it because of bigger dimension , especially extra more 10mm width . refer to the diagram , the fan is not powerful enought , max rpm only 1500 plus extra silent than valina s1283 .. overall i can say is a good hsf ....
