Have fun with that card :thumbsup:

Thanks. It was the last component my 13yo son & I were waiting for to build our dream system. We're now officially "stoked" and should start our build midweek.

Will wait to run stock to make sure I don't have to RMA the cards and to have a baseline for comparing water temps with.

Still waiting on my A8N-SLI.......

The cards at www.buyxg.com when they had 5 in stock for $569 a week ago (haven't seen any stock since

The Innovatek blocks at www.highspeedpc.com for $129 each.

The mainboard on order from several places under $300; first to ship keeps my money, the rest can go to hell with their vaporware.

Nice parts exdeath. I've seen your FX-55 system specs. I thought I had a high end parts bug. All I can say is you are one crazy (sigh of envy) motherfu@ker!

I reiterate my statements (and envy) from last week! You've got some REALLLLLLY NIIIICE FU@$KIN' components there exdeath! (Pardon my french, please).

Hi,

Here's the rig I'm building. Much like yours maybe:

A8N-SLI Deluxe
2 gig Corsair TWINX DL CL2225
Lian Li P-V1000 Black Case
Evermax(?) 600 watt PSU
Sound Blaster Audigy 2
LG DVD Ram drive
3.5 Multi-drive (memory card reader combined)
2 75 Gig WD SATA 10,000 HDs on Raid
250 Gig WD Ultra IDE 7,200
21' Mitsubishi Diamond Crystal Flatscreen on arm mount

* Might do Koolance liquid cooling for CPU, Northbridge and Video cards.

Guess what I'm missing.......................

The Video cards.....(2 6800 Ultra 256ddr3 PCI-X SLI) ....................

Any advice on cooling or where the heck to get these darn cards... (I'm International, so need to deliver them internationally).

Cheers,

Are you sure those blocks for the video cards would fit? My friend works at a computer store building PCs and he said he tried those blocks on the PCI-X Ultra cards and that they didn't Fit.

Would be interested in knowing your results.

Damn I just took a look, there are 2 caps just forward of the regulator heatsink that would interfere with installation of the Innovatek cooler!! On the AGP version all the large caps are behind the regulartor heatsink (towards the back of the card near the power connectors)

AUUGHH!!

The dangerden blocks look like they might fit...

 

[dandtpaul]

What about the 6800 coolers from Koolance. Do you think they will fit better? Also, any news on the the northbridge waterblock?

After getting used to the new board and BIOS options, heres what I've managed to pull off the pair of stock 6800 Ultras and an overclocked FX-55 @ 3 GHz:

exdeath, that is one destroyer pc. I'm still waiting for an intel SLI board because I cant afford FX-55 and A8N-SLI ...

10k on 3d marks05, thats twice what most people get... I have a 6800 GTO but im trying to see if i can get it up to GT levels so I have some respect. I just cant iterate how amazing that pc is exdeath.

sorry.. i really could not resist Anyway i am glad for you isince i know how rare these cards are/were.

 

[Exide]

In your experience thusfar, how would you rate the Koolance solution you have setup? I've been looking at a similar configuration, but this will be my first step into liquid cooling.

anybody know any websites that have 6800 ultra pci-express actually in stock?!
