    confusion on cpu coolers

    a. The pre-applied paste is MX-1.. better than Arctic Silver 5 b. If you insist, just wipe it off. c. The cooler I linked above cools the same or better than the Frezzer Pro, is quieter and currently less expensive if you get that deal.

    Lack of Heat?

    If it's an L2 stepping E6400, then both TAT and CoreTemp 0.95 will both report temps 15C higher than SpeedFan 4.32 or CoreTemp 0.94. The first two use 100C as the Tjunction value and the second two use 85C as the Tjunction value. For the AS5 vs. ASC question, I'd refer you to what this AS...

    Lack of Heat?

    Which cpu? Which version of CoreTemp? CoreTemp 0.95 will report temps 15C high for certain cpus. CoreTemp 0.94 will report temps 15C lower than CoreTemp 0.95 for certain cpus.

    Lack of Heat?

    Yes, it should be. The fact that you're Idling at 50C (that's really high) indicates that you have a bad mounting... the heatsink is not getting hot/warm because it's not making good contact. You should remount it. Installation: 1. rotate all knobs clockwise (opposite direction of arrows)...

    Ultra 120 eXtreme loses King of Coolers title

    ..I'd also note what should be obvious... "interest and discussion" are the result of reviews in most cases, not the other way around. If Scythe sent the Ninja out to be reviewed before release and/or Zalman sent the 9500 out to be reviewed prior to or at the time of release, then that would be...

    Ultra 120 eXtreme loses King of Coolers title

    Yep - there's hundreds (over time, or at least 'dozens' in an on-going basis) of heatsinks that never get reviewed on any site. Obviously the ones that get reviewed are the ones that are either foisted at the reviewers by manufacturers, or ones that show some promise/interest among the site's...

    what a decent cheap heatsink for my new c2d set up?

    Wow, that's a a hell of a deal if you managed to get the rebate (expires 7/15)... actually works out closer to $18 shipped. It's an excelent cooler (light weight, small, quiet, good performing) for modest-to-moderate levels of overclocking.

    Ultra 120 eXtreme loses King of Coolers title

    ...just for completeness sake, I didn't really account for the vga card drawing more wattage if doing heavy 3D rendering and such in my example above, but I think that's still well within the bounds.

    Ultra 120 eXtreme loses King of Coolers title

    Interesting note about the side-fan vs side-vent-only... You'd think the fan would help bring in air, but maybe it interacted oddly with the HSF (turbulence). I'm guessing you'd have to test both ways on each system to figure out what works best.

    Anandtech Enzotech Ultra-X Review

    Potential reasons it might have good performance: 1. 8mm heatpipes - ~30% more surface area (around the pipe) per pipe going through the base and touching the fins than 6mm pipes. So, all other things being equal (and I'm not sure they are), 3 x 8mm pipes is roughly equivelent to 4 x 6mm...

    what a decent cheap heatsink for my new c2d set up?

    Installation: 1. Turn all the knobs clockwise ("Locked" position) 2. Place heatsink on cpu, making sure each push-pin properly lines up with hole in mb. 3. Push each pin until it clicks. 4. there is no step 4 - leave the knobs alone. Removal: 1. turn all the knobs counter-clockwise...

    Ultra 120 eXtreme loses King of Coolers title

    More good points and I happen to agree with most of them. At some point (or in some setups) it might be an issue, but for the most part, I still don't think it would make any difference. For example, my system is: MSI P6n Platinum mb (nVida 650i-based) E6400 @ 2.66GHz - stock volts...

    Ultra 120 eXtreme loses King of Coolers title

    Good points (except the one about additional wattage to run the fans - that's too trivial to be an issue :) ). My concern at all on this topic is just getting ALL the facts out to readers trying to use these types of reviews to make intellegent buying decisions for thier particular setup. In...

    Ultra 120 eXtreme loses King of Coolers title

    Yeah, I was expecting it to come in below the Tower heatsinks on this setup, but I have to say that I'm surprised that it didn't do better than it did (I was expecting it to place about half-way between where it did and the top). The fact is that AT's test setup is just particularly unkind to...

    Need fan for Q6600???????

    I saw that too... and then a day (or so) later, came the denial from nVidia. So it may or may not happen, but Intel has tried before and nVidia has refused before, so it's not a sure thing. Of course things change, so who knows. I personally don't have any use for SLI (even though I own an...

    That's the "Fintek F71882F Super IO chip"... which happens to be the same one being used on my MSI 650i-based board (MSI P6N Platinum). I don;t know a lot about whether or not these Super IO chips are programable or whether they always report the same, but here's how it worked out on my...

    Need fan for Q6600???????

    Yeah, there are few reasons to get a Quad these days. Most people are better off with a C2D chip that can be clocked higher and and run cooler. The exception would be people who regularly use apps (like 3D Modelling/Rendering) that already have multi-cpu support. For example, my daily work...

    Two questions per fan-speed regulation

    Looks like it... this often happens for distribution purposes. ie. I don't think you can find mCubed products in the US. SilenX sells re-branded 3RSystem iCEAGE 90 heatsinks on Newegg. Rosewill sells re-branded Akasa Evo 98 / Blue heatsinks on Newegg. etc. Heck, based on the number...

    Need fan for Q6600???????

    That might be what he's saying, but I'm not sure he paid attention to your question :) (reference his relatively high overclocks). If you don't intend to overclock, or only do mild overclocking (ie. without increasing the voltage to the core), then the stock HSF will work. So, assuming the...

    water cooling vs heatsink cooling vs any other type????

    ...so you've coated two sides of a lapped silver slug with fine diamond powder, by embedding it into the silver, hammering it between two steel plates? And your plan is to use this coated slug (alone) as the TIM between your IHS and HSF? Or are you planning to add two layers of TIM (above and...

    *** MSI P6N SLI Platinum OVERCLOCK 650i ***

    Yes - you've reached the point where you'll have to start bumping the core voltage to get higher. As soon as you do, your temperatures will start rising at an excellerated rate (faster than the rises you've seen by just bumping the FSB so far). You can try a bump or two, but I don't...

    water cooling vs heatsink cooling vs any other type????

    Thanks and yes, I kinda came to that same conclusion above - there may not actually be much of a delta (relatively speaking) between pre and post cpu block, or pre and post radiator, for that matter - but certainly the radiator is there for a purpose :)... and some (bigger, more fans, more...

    water cooling vs heatsink cooling vs any other type????

    Ahh, interesting, thanks. So, one way of looking at it is that at most, water is taking away 6.5F per pass through the cpu block (but continuously... kinda hard to quantify in these terms). Although (assuming that rad is not 100% efficient), I'm guessing its a few F less than that...

    water cooling vs heatsink cooling vs any other type????

    So... 27.5C = 81.5F for the cpu... but that's the temp of the water coming out of the cpu, not going in, right? I was curious about the water going in (ie. how effective your rad is). Edit: actually, that's only 6F above ambient, which is what I might expect coming out of the rad, so maybe I...

    Ultra 120 eXtreme loses King of Coolers title

    ...it just occured to me that you're suggesting that he should have used a ~2500rpm fan on the TR (?). As I mentioned above, I would have liked to see that as well - and I'm guessing that the TR could have pulled off another few C (although the 2400rpm combo of two fans did have about the same...
  36. S

    Ultra 120 eXtreme loses King of Coolers title

    Yeah, ignore the ~2500 result if you want. Or consider it relative to the 2x fans @ 1200 on the TR (still not apples to apples). I personally find this comparison most interesting... Closed System Enzo @ 1 x ~1400rpm = 68C TR X @ 2 x ~1200rpm = 66C ...so the Enzo is cooling to within...

    water cooling vs heatsink cooling vs any other type????

    A sincere question for your WC folks... has anyone measured the temperature of the water exiting the radiator (entering the cpu block) ? It seems to me that it will still be above 'room temperature' - how far above, is the question - and I'm sure it varies based on radiator size/efficiency...

    Ultra 120 eXtreme loses King of Coolers title

    Ultra 120 eXtreme loses King of Coolers title

    No worries, I read the entire thread. The part you seemed to miss is the link within there pointing to the Enzo thread.. where the guy used some TIM between the cap and base and picked up another few C (which was already bettering his Tuniq Tower). Anyway, it's just silly to argue over 2-3C...

    *** MSI P6N SLI Platinum OVERCLOCK 650i ***

    Given decent airflow and reasonable ambient air temps, the stock Intel HSF will work fine up to the point where you start bumping up the vCore (cpu core voltage). So after disabling C1E, EIST, D.O.T, etc. (see the second post in this thread), I'd: - set the CPU Bus / Memory Bus clock mode...
