    Adjusting pump voltage

    I bought a different company but its practically the same thing where you can just adjust the knob to control voltages. So this IS possible and undervolting will not harm my pump in any way? Another problem I see is that fan controllers do not supply enough Watts and Amperages when I want the...

    Adjusting pump voltage

    I have an MCP650 Swiftech pump that is whirring itself away and have trouble sleeping sometimes with my computer on due to this. I am buying a 5.25" bay knob controlled fan controller. Can I link my 4pin pump to a 3pin molex then hook it to the controller and force down the voltage supplied...

    cm stacker fans

    I thought that included wussy fan was perfect for the setup. Its windy enough to cool down my HDDs so that it doesnt ever hit above 35, and since it draws little air, there is less dust accumulation compared to higher CFM fans. However, I would change the rear and top fans

    Is 71C a bit excessive for a 6800gt?

    The NV silencer had exact same temperatures as stock cooler. However it does draw out hot air and is silent. I can push past 78 C on both coolers by using "Real-Time High-Dynamic Range Image-Based Lighting" found here ( http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/rthdribl/ ). This nifty program will tax...

    Disappointed with my Koolance PC2-601

    Eh Im not too happy with my Swiftech h2o120 kit either. I thought I would be getting supreme drops in temperature but I only got 4 degrees cooler at load and same at idle compared to the Thermalright XP-90.

    CM Stacker cooling....which fans (specific) should i use?

    Get rid of the rear exhaust fan. If I remember correctly, that thing pushes less than 15cfm. I replaced mine with a Panaflo

    need advice on new case ASAP ordering this weekend!

    I had a Tsunami before, but upgraded to Stacker b/c the Tsunami is too cramped for w/c. The Stacker is made for water cooling. The bottom area can be taken out to fit a 2x120mm radiator. You have to buy the window side panel separately but that should be no problem for you hehe. Just one thing...

    NV Sliencer 5 - Is mine faulty?

    When I first installed it, I was afriad to tighten it because those rubber washers looked like they were about to snap any moment. My core wasnt even touching the NV5 so I reapplied a larger portion of AS5 and tightened it good. Now I am getting just a little less than stock temps with none of...

    Thermaltake Tsunami cases... any good?

    I liked my case. Good design, I liked my see through window, and it was light! However, those 120mm fans supplied are loud. And if you close the front panels, the flow from the front fan is poor. For watercooling I had to upgrade to a CM Stacker

    Reuse laptop screen with desktop?

    I have a Dell Inspiron 8600 that crapped out on me and want to reuse the nice screen. However, it isn't connected by a standard cable. Is there anyway I can get it to work with a regular vga connection?

    Best place for HD fans?

    I have coolermaster ultra quiet 120mm fan that pushes 17cfm and that keeps a raptor and another hard drive under 35. They dont need much like all the others have already said

    Advice on overclocking my 64 3500

    I dont have the same Mobo but ran into the same problems with the 3500+. I tried the PCI lock, LDT 4x and upping voltage. My method was to drop the memory to 166 (333) and also the multiplier to 10x. I can run 235FSB (2.35ghz) without touching voltage. That slows my RAM down to 195. I can go to...

    Cable Management & W/C kits for Thermaltake Tsunami

    Swiftech's block is interchangable as long as you spend an extra $10 to buy the AMD conversion thing. I had a Tsunami and had a tough time placing the 120mm radiator. It doesnt fit on the rear case fan because of the case design, and you dont want to put it in front due to limited air flow when...

    Pump Issues

    I switched from water to air and now I want to revert back to water. I set everything up, primed the pump with water and flipped the switch. However, instead of water streaming around quickly through my setup, it flows very slowly and it sounds as if the pump is having trouble. At times there...

    Odd Cable Request

    My Dell laptop finally gave out and I still have the harddrive with a bunch of information on it. Are there any cables that will link my laptop harddrive to my k8t800pro motherboard? Or is getting the external enclosure my only option? I would love to just shove it in my tower and be done with it :)

    Computer... DONE

    Alright, I tried to boot my computer after trying to apply a different heatsink and now its done for good. No screen. And according to the LED on my mobo, it doesnt get past the first boot up check which is memory. What the heck is going on? I have an athlon 64 and tried to re-attach my...

    Case cooling with 1 fan

    I run on 1 case fan (120mm at <1000rpm) and its working very well. However, my graphics card has been refitted with the NV Silencer so that instead of releasing hot air into the system, it exhausts it out.

    Question about memory and o/c

    I have a 3500+ and raised the FSB to 239. I set my Dual channel 3200 memory at 166 so it went up to 199 with the Overclock. Do I need to adjust my memory voltage or timings at all?

    High Idle Temp?

    The lapping on a heatsink can make a difference, but I just added that tidbit to say that it can't be the lap job cause both types of cooling sinks report unusually high temperatures. I use the recommended amounted as per Arctic's instruction manual... no more than a grain and a half. Once...

With the program given to me by Soltek, just bump by temps up by 3-6 degree celcius. Speedfan tells me my Watercooled setup is running 42 idle 46 load so...
