lol. I can give it a shot, but it wouldn't be pretty.

Last time I used it, I didn't have the "skill set". It was for a subwoofer encloser for a trailblazer ext. It worked to prove a point but I don't know how it would turn out with multiple 3d...

Thanks for the reminder. I have ordered through them in the past, usually with a co-worker to save some shipping but I can always find something else I need from them. lol

Thanks, The mockup in...

build info now being put in http://www.thebestcasescenario.com/forum/showthread.php?p=341807#post341807

update
The waterblocks have been ordered.

**update**
waterblocks in route.

lol, yeah.

If it were 80max, I would be OK with that. Max per CPU spec sheet is 95. I have seen the cpu when not throttle spike to 93 which is too close for comfort. I can play hd video at...

still pending block changes.

update-
even in power save, running at 803Mhz (vs normal 2.1Ghz). playing a video in windowed mode still brought temps up pretty high.

Speedfan
GPU- 51max
Core-...

Got the new board installed and everything is good to go on that end now. With the stock cooling, it still its 90C+ just doing the windows rating. Running it in power saver until a better solution...

you sir, have peaked my interest. lol ohnoes!!!

i have to get to bed but will for sure be on here a little before work and definitely during work assuming the issues have been fixed. I'll look for...

Thanks for the thought! Isn't that what really matters? lol

Yeah, the SSD I think would be nice, but for the cost I don't think I will be able to get a decent one size wise. It will ultimately be...

Copper block is being fitted with 1/4" ID 3/8"OD plumbing over 1/4" thick copper block covering all chips.

I will likely have to get some 1/4" barbs for the copper tubing. Looking like it would be...

Got good news. New board is on it's way back to me.

I will be able to get the heatsink fitted now. Should have it by the end of the week.

I have seen other posts where it had been done with other coolers (not that it means it is safe). Plus I don't see how I could remove the heatpipe from the fins and "re-pipe" it where it will be as...

The end of the pipes would be cut to accommodate the 1/4" tubing. The Heatpipes are 1/4" OD and copper.

Ok. What do you guys think of this HS/F to be used in a WC loop?

It is an 80mm fan mounted to the HS. The...

Currently waiting on the block to get shaved down at the mounting points so it will sit flush with the chips. Once all is said and done, two tests will be done. 1- 1/4" block only for cooling, 2-...

The one next to the wifi? Yeah, that was option I think on the HP's which they didn't use on my series.

I don't think it would be too beneficial, but if I don't get a board working with the...

He came into work today with the block.

Block on mobo.

Side View... oh noes BIG Gap!...

Well I got a call and text earlier. He was able to make a block out of 1/4" copper for free using scrap. The idea was brought up to run 1/4" copper tubing along the surface, looping it around...

He said, the block cutout is about $104.... umm... lol hm.. what to do now. lol

Look at still using copper block for water cooling or get the CHP blocks and hope I can cool the CHP properly since...

Thanks.

I did discuss it with him. Finding the block for a reasonable price is going to be key first. He said they usually deal with copper sheets upto ~1/4". Even if I did the sandwich, I would...

Not sure if this needs to be moved to a modding section yet but I may be able (small possibility) to get a single block cut for the CPU, CHP and GPU. Using 1/4" plumbing would give me some routing...

Well. Bad news. After attempting a fresh install of Windows, I lost com with the DVD-Rom. BIOS or Windows doesn't detect. Even when unplugging and plugging back in. It powers up and spins but...

Well. I would consider the swap a success with a couple exceptions.

Exceptions
1. Still need proper shims (used penny's to test hardware)
2. CPU still getting really hot per core temp.

Here...

Today Mother Trucker!! lol Sry, excited.

I should hopefully have some pics up later.
