May 10, 201114 yr Now testing: beercooling, but as you can see, it quickly consumes the beer - working on improvements ^^
May 10, 201114 yr Massman did it years beforeofn OWNED But they are using different bottles which are more efficient - got that "beer-pot" from leeghoofd during cebit
May 11, 201114 yr Winfast FX5200 + Koolance GPU POT: Air Cooled (yes, i'm using only the insulation+thermal paste to "stuck" this cooler on that card there is no glue or screws ): Unfortunately no time/motivation to test this (yeah, still need to insulate the pot and mobo ) and i'm not sure if the results will be much better than what i got on air... DICE is expensive here (+/- US$9 for 1 kg) so i prefer to use this on more "result guaranted" hardware. Edited May 11, 201114 yr by NoMS
May 11, 201114 yr Brilliant! That explains how I'm going to get a slim on this 8600 low profile thing.
May 11, 201114 yr Stock fan removed and a 250cfm delta strapped to the card instead. Before After After V2
May 11, 201114 yr Should have left it on longer, it was still pretty hot. The burning has finally subsided now, half an hour later. EDIT: Yes, I need to vacuum. Two kids and two cats makes for a mess.
May 12, 201114 yr When you finally try your -46*C capable SS with your 7300LE and you find out that the card is having cold problems at temperatures below -10*C you have to do something else so that it doesn't get that cold... -7*C works great, everythings ok now
May 13, 201114 yr Author Delta fan isn't it ? Flying benchtable: atm it's the prototype made in cardboard These one @ 7v :
May 13, 201114 yr Author how you have fixed this huge cooler on the vga ? on the pic seems with some fixation kit
May 13, 201114 yr Author nice, was it really effective ? Thinking about putting a Noctua NH-D14 on some Riva TNT2
May 13, 201114 yr with another (24/7) fan setup and GPU at 730MHz/1.51V the temperature didn't exceed 51C under ATiTool (FurMark didn't exist back then) while benching with deltas at similar GPU speeds / voltage, temps were around 37C under load with 26-28C ambient
May 17, 201114 yr Author Otterauge's last LN2 pot rev 4a on Air Cooling mode for Windows XP installation.
May 17, 201114 yr Umh! when you'll fill the pot (one day...) flip the fans plz ...trust me it's better way to keep it safe
May 17, 201114 yr Umh! when you'll fill the pot (one day...) flip the fans plz ...trust me it's better way to keep it safe you mean people like their fingers? what a strange idea....
May 17, 201114 yr It isn't what's in my mind tbh Fans are used like this to throw out the vapor of the system (my two cents and a half)
