DarkScorpion Posted February 2, 2005 Posted February 2, 2005 If you want all 3 blocks, look for an Asetek waterchill kit that comes with all 3. Im sure they're sold in the UK, but I dont know how much for Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IoDd64 Posted February 2, 2005 Posted February 2, 2005 why do u need nb cooling? slap a cheapo 40mm fan on it, and itll stay ffine.. unless ur pushing 2+ volts and like a 2ghz overclock i wouldnt worry about it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunak87 Posted February 2, 2005 Posted February 2, 2005 Why do you want to watercool your northbridge? You can get adequate cooling with air. Adding an extra waterblock to the system puts more pressure on the pump and constricts waterflow. The only real reason I can see watercooling the NB is to cut down on noise. That will also save you some money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_WRATH Posted February 2, 2005 Posted February 2, 2005 yep it could give you those extra mhz you need to get to 4ghz or even higher etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kash Posted February 2, 2005 Posted February 2, 2005 Since he has a 3.0GHz P4, he might need the NB cooling to get to 4GHz. If he only wants to get to like 3.7 or 3.8, then air cooling the NB will be fine. But why go for 3.8 when with a little cooling, he can get to 4GHz?

General Posted February 2, 2005 Posted February 2, 2005 trust me guys.. NB cooling is a must. my 875P never goes below 60 on air. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_WRATH Posted February 2, 2005 Posted February 2, 2005 i think you should just upgrade to a better nb cooler maybe like a swiftech one would be fine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
