Prostock62 Posted April 22, 2005 Posted April 22, 2005 sidpaul please make a sig with your specks and save it to your user cp.Its one of the request from AG to help make the boards run smother and helps others to help you if your posting a problem.Thanks. Now there are these microcool sinks that most use on the PLLS & Mosfets to cool them down.Microcool Chipsinks.As for the color of the lights iam using is UV,because the yellow componits on the board are UV reflected. http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/memandvidcar.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

vega27 Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 i was thinking about getting some of these, too. is it actually worth it? do they really lower temps of your mosfets? how many do you need for the lanparty 250Gb? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vega i have my board all sinked up with the microcool sinks and i dont realy find a diffrence in the temp.I dont realy think they do that much.(IMOP)I herd others saying the same thing. Iam sure there are some will say they do make a diffrence.If they do its not much. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
