swifty11212 Posted November 30, 2005 Whatever helps you sleep at night bud. You've been dishing out a lot of talk lately, perhaps you're not too keen on people serving you your words on a platter? Besides, we'll see how your current 50c load temps look in the summer time, and maybe then your tune will change... 587315[/snapback] hmm, rooms temps are 75 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robAP Posted December 1, 2005 i went water just because i got tired of the noise air made. it was intrusive in a limited space apartment with a live-in GF. just too loud. i went water...im never looking back!! take a good look at that ihs......its NOT copper. and that means its NOT efficient getting heat from the die to the heatsink that IS copper. tis just in the way of efficient cooling.

hardnrg Posted December 1, 2005 take a good look at that ihs......its NOT copper.588279[/snapback] yes it is... it's almost a pure slab of copper... it's only a rice-paper thin plate of nickel or w/e on top, you can quite easily scratch through to the copper Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

airman Posted December 10, 2005 (edited) okay count me in....my opteron 144 @ 2700mhz, stupid 9x multi but i'm still extremely pleased with it. superPi...it's kinda slow...at 34 seconds...compared to what you guys are getting at 3gig...maybe because i wasn't running in dual channel but i don't see how 300mhz can make a 6 second difference. i'll keep working on it. i'll take suggestions. arithmetic bench....yea ....and multimedia. *smile* i know i can improve....i'm hoping for 2800mhz but no promises.
