lol as much as i love cats, lets not veer off our main topic of this thread, coolermaster

the last few post is making this thread sounding like catmaster thread instead of coolermaster

@ teamloks

eh remember the extra fans i told u to remove in the previous post? i did some reading and found that those fans blow air to GC instead of what i initially assume to suck air from GC, so.. havin it there should be a plus for cooling down ur GC temp..

paiseh should've read up 1st b4 i even commenting =P

cheers

imo v10 is not worth the money spent

1 : TEC on it already consuming 70W of power. Its almost another extra E8600 running on top of ur current processor. FYI E8600 TDP is rated at 65W. Extra electric bill over the long run.

2: RM400~500 for an air cooler? why not spend another rm200 for a more efficient water cooler?

3: TEC works more efficiently on water cooler, for water has almost a thousand times heat capacity per volume than air. Google "peltier review" for more test results. Also note that the cooler gotta support the heat produced by both TEC and your proc. Eg, if u're using E8600 @ 65W, the v10 gotta dissipate heat of 65W (proc) + 70W (TEC) = 135W

4: WTF my deepcool iceblade pro only cost RM110 and dont lose much in terms on thermal efficiency, or perhaps even on par with v10 with 2 XLFs Review here.. Performance to cost ratio, V10 gotta perform at least 4 times more efficient than IBP for the price it ask.

5: V10 only boast ones e-peen. Nothing more.

I stand to be corrected.

Cheers

xelnamikaze..

post those pics in kopitiam, ppl will appreciate it

but not here please.

thanks

I posted last year in Huntkey thread under subforum Overclocking and Hard Modding. Not CM related but i think everyone should equip themselves with the correct knowledge and not the false marketing gimmick created by many of today's big names. CM 90CFM is a good example. Hunkey PSUs is another.

@ onnjeyyon
the difference between different brands of PSU is the efficiency and the fluctuation of voltage on 12v and 5v rail. Basically u want to have a single powerful rail psu (as opposed to multiple weaker rails) so that to reduce the risk of overloading. There are only a handful of PSU manufacturers with single rail PSU, namely PC&C, Corsair, Silverstone (OP or Z series), and some Enermax psu.

How much power do u actually need? http://www.anandtech.com/casecoolingpsus/showdoc.aspx?i=3413

Anandtech is actually one of the best psu review site u can find online. Browse around to see what best suits you.

@ hahn
oh P5Q-E, good choice
much better than TPower for ur quaddy overclocking
remember to post some overclocking results with ur new v8..

cheers.

My side fan is intake, and my interior still clean =P





Car sunshades on double sided tape. Cheap and good =)

@ hahn

Yeah tpower i45 only uses 4 phase power regulator as opposed to p5q-e's 8 phase cpu power regulator. Tho can reach high FSB but unstable voltage for overclocking. My MaximusII has 16-phase PWM and my voltage fluctuates around 0.008v as on cpu-z on load and idle.

More explaination bout how V ripple (or Vdrop) on http://www.anandtech.com/mb/showdoc.aspx?i=2589&p=2

@ koki

it happens usually when the earth power connector is faulty when those extra current cannot be earthed properly. Changing the power socket might solve the problem. If the problem still persist, then on of ur component is leaking electric to the casing, usually motherboard.

RM25 each from zhenwei
postage i think few bucks, if u buy many still cheaper than sri comp.
=)


BTW guys, i've been conned RM450 by 19400. No more Q6600 =(
