I'm looking to burn some cash. Looking at some different cooling pumps to throw into my loop. I think out of all of the ones I've looked at this is one of my favorites, I need comments if you know anything about the pump, or if you know a better one. http://www.sharkacomputers.com/aswaxtbapu12.html I'm also thinking about getting this LCD screen to throw into my drive bay. It connects to the pump and can give different information, for anothing 60 dollars I can get a full lcd 4inches wide, so i'm not sure if it Is worth the money. http://www.sharkacomputers.com/aslcddiblal5.html I'm also going to pick up some scythe fans, if you look at the specs they are almost completely silent, 9dBA is rediculous. http://www.sharkacomputers.com/scssf12cafan.html So if anyone has any information about any of these products post. Current setup. +4400 oced to 4800 running idle temps of around 35 Danger Den TDX Copper CPU Block Random fish tank pump -_- 1/2 tubeing ftw Black ice pro III Radiator This is actually an on going project I'm doing, working on modding my computer out the ears, if anyone is interested in pics I can get some up.
dunno much about the pumps or whatnot, but does that first one have a water block? cant see one... look around newegg for better comparision. I saw one on there for like $80 that i was stipulating buying but decided it's better to save up for a Core 2.
Well ive never heard of that site before but i myself trust www.frozencpu.com for all my water cooling needs. As for those fans, theyre slient for a reason. They move NO AIR! If you want low dBA with him CFM then get these. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16811999344 or http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16835220009
Idle temps 35? mines COed to FX60(aka 5200+) and idles as low as 27C you also might want a stronger fan it only moves 30 CFM, try for one at 80-100, there are a few... I've got a list fo what shoudl eb the good ones though I am not 100% sure http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16811999344 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16835129248 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16811999144 also, if you are so dang worried about temps, why don't you get a peltier sysstem, use phase change to cool the water resevoir and have that.
I'm not that worried about temps, most of the reason behind the water cooling was cool factor. Unfortunately my pump was leaking so I'm trying to find a replacement, the one I was looking at also had built in resevior, so I thought that would be a nice feature. I'm looking to drop the temps to below 30, because while setting up my loop I really didn't go for max performance, I put about 50% antifreese, etc. Those fans look nice, I'll probably get those. And if they are noisy I can always just nock down the voltage. Thanks for the help.
ifnyou are worried aboutnoise a ton get a fan controller or get a fan with an adjustable knob like that silverstone.
I can use the pump software to lower them. And then I'm going to slap this puppy right on the side of my case. http://www.frozencpu.com/lcd-30.html
