My CPU now using q6600

either one of them gonna lose out to other heatsinks like TRUE and IFX-14

wow... talk so sure n confirm... where your prove?

dont say that those CM lose to the ifx-14. i got fren using it (ifx14) n the temperature are higher than the water cool (CM aquagate max). come on dude.. prove plz next time. dont blind ppl out.

they both suck ass, proof?

does personal usage or tests count?

in this case it does.

//Moved Q&A


Edit:

whoops, on a controlled testing, or on same ambient setup, the CM aquagate Max is garbage for its price paid for. my as well keep the extra and get a decent kit or true120 or ifx14, good luck when your pump breaks down in 6 to 9 months from your first usage.

agreed.
personally with that kind price range i will go TR or the new prolimatech.
paired with nice fan like silverstone fm123 also pull-push config.
it worth for the money u pay for.

erk.... garbage? i dont think so n totally dont agree with u.. im using it now. non oc (stock) temp is around 27-32. OC around 37, is this garbage?

my fren got set of rm 1.3k swifttech custom kit water cooling but the temp is almost i can call it garbage. use on q9550 - idle temp (non oc) 50-52. honestly, my fren kinda abit dissapointed man.. i know how he feel for spending 1.3k for the garbage temp.

anyway.. there is alot more cpu cooling can beat those v10 n cm aquagate max. im not saying cm aquagate max are powerful coz this is totally rubbish talk. but of coz the temperature gap was not too high. around -2-4 degree celcius. for example the one of the new thermalright can beat the v10 (around -2 degree celcius gap). i read on the custom pc mag. well.. i love to talk at what i read n saw. i dont want to blind ppl out.

u cant blindly defend the brand u r currently using
u wont earn commision from them anyway

try testing in same setup instead of reading mags

does he get much headroom for OC ?
do u realize that custom OC will give more headrooms for OCing ?
it has d power to cool down up to 1000W of power .
its not d reading dat important , its d scale of temperature increment before and after OCing .
heck my Q6600 went up from 24C to 30C for 50% of OC . (diz is BIOS reading , actual reading +15C)
even under load , mine juz run around 40C only .
so i got lotsa headrooms for OCing .
and i even use for NB cooling as well .

and yes CM aquagate Max is considered crappy for WC , ur buying name instead of performance .
could get custom WC for like RM700 now .
only a bit xtra wif more headrooms for OCing .

he did not install it properly,

what is his specifications for his wc parts?

mind specifying wats ur frens specs and wat are his temp? im blinding ppl out?

PROC: AMD PHENOM II 940 BLACK EDITION @ 3.6GHZ, u got idle temp 27~32c at stock, and oc 3.6ghz u got 37c idle?

for CPU temp, im getting 25c idle... CORE temp, well 32~34c is my idle... both are measured at 3.6ghz

now wats ur load temp @ 3.6ghz... mind telling me? for a RM700 water cooler by the ALMIGHTY COOLER MASTER, they SHOULD perform well right? im guessing under 40c?

oh and fyi, it was done on my friend's p2 x4 940

not sure. but seem all installation is correct. btw.. about the cm aquamax. i dont defending n say it was the powerful wc stuff altho im using it. i admit it. im just tell that this wc not crap. clear?

about the temp, first aspect, need to consider the ambient temperature. here around me was abit hotty. im also sweating when gaming. lol!! it was around 35++ something here.. so about my cpu temp, it will almost same or more. no wonder i cant get 30 degree on oc. anyway.. custom wc still the best consider mine. im buying it coz i want to combo with the custom wc .

y would u waste RM600 on it ?
better juz get custom cooling
dtek fuzion v2 or switftech apogee GTZ around RM335
2 metre 1/2" tube = RM60
Nirox P2800 pump = RM55
radiator varies from RM200-300
T brass connector = RM?? not sure .

den u already have full custom WC kit edi here .
how bout consider getting these ? ^^,
