Naturally Aspired PC WaterCooling Club

I'm spoiled with my AMD stuff 28C load with three gtx 470s in the loop.

Damn, how do you manage that? My CPU runs warmer than that idle. And that's like 6C above room temperature....

Two pumps, three radiators (480, 360, 240) with massive fans.
 
You can try to cool an Intel hexa with many rads you want but it'll still be a hot bitch.

I run a Mora3 9x120 + two HTSF4 140x3 and my 3930K hits 70C loaded on latest IBT with AVX 12 threads max memory.

This with two 250ish watts graphics cards in the loop.

Topless Intel chip and 255 cfm fans should accomplish plenty. The do not put out anywhere close to sought wattage to heat a good loop that much.

I'm afraid you can't delid SB-E as far as I know :| (if you mean that for topless)

Also 255 CFM fans? I could barely bear Gentle Typhoons 1850 RPM. I just had to switch to Noctua fans.
 
Glad to see this club resurrected:toast:

Ah I don't keep track of the ability to delid the current Intel ones. That's to bad goes you have to get old school and sand through the lid and solder to get down to bare core.

I run 255cfm fans with spacers for the highest static pressure possible. Its a toy not my gaming rig so noise isn't an issue. My gaming rig is a bit simpler with a large air cooler and TEC.

sanding near a exposed core ?
LOLWUT ?
 
[Ion], my 3970K is running about 51-55C load at stock, with 73F room temps. Considering the 1GHz+ OC and the higher room temps, that's not bad.

I'd say that the room temps are pretty much the same for me. But for the extra OC and voltage involved I'm pretty happy. You have a more powerful pump and better radiator too, right?

I thought that you had your CPU OCed too...
 
Nope, no OC for now. I have the D5 pump and quad BIX rad.

I run mine at 5,1Ghz with 1,5v if that helps.

That seems like an enormous amount of voltage for a 32nm CPU to handle--right? If I can get 4.7GHz or so on ~1.4V I'll be happy with that.
 
I use offset voltage so it's going to be at 1.5v only when needed, that'll help.
 
Yes, I know my desk is a disaster, but whatever :p

It's not the cleanest setup ever, but it's not bad looking, wicked fast, and not too loud. I'm going to install the HD7950 at some point, but haven't had time yet.

(yes, I also just posted this in the Your PC ATM thread)

Rig needs some cleaning. Cute pup though:)
Why are you missing a fan on your front rad?
 
My personal 4 socket server.
4x AMD Opteron 6380 2.8Ghz, 16Cores (Turbo mode) on Supermicro H8QG6-i
Watercooled
64 cores in total with 180 Ghz

Have fun!
