Well.. this is my first post in more than 4 years. My last wc build was for my i7 920 and that has served me well till now. Actually, it's still darn good since I replaced the orginal 280 with a 480 two years ago. It can still run anything out there. However, I figured I'll upgrade to an IB i7...

wow that's cheap combo. I'll need a res for under $29

Well i have all the parts...except the 3/4 Id to 1/2 ID converter, I think. What else would I need?

Well it's 21 bucks... I've been wanting to build external rad box. I'll test to see the noise this outputs. Got some spare 12v DC adapters ranging from 1A to 6A. PAR-Max 4 Electric Diaphragm Pump w/ 12 Volt DC Motor (12VDC). Continuous rated Washdown / livewell Pump. Saltwater or freshwater...

they usually go for 2x to 3x. I'm thinking this could be used under powered for an external rad box.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000O8D5N2 Can I use this pump for water cooling in a PC case? Just saw it sold out, but it was going for 21 bucks down from 200

You know... tech news sites shouldn't use the work "leaked" when discussing these products lol. I tried to google for reviews and I kept seeing "MSI hydrogen 480GTX leaked!"

I just got the MSI hydrogen 480GTX at newegg for $300 (400 with 100 mail in rebate) That's one heck of a deal. The block seems to be the HK full cover block, with retails for 100 ish, meaning the 480GTX itself is only around $200. Any one with experience on how much this thing can OC?

changing the MAC address of a NIC is an inherent ability...how is that hacking? Looks like his defense is just. He "accidently" set the modems to another MAC on the network.

it's not stable at 1.55v which is the option under 1.7. Anycase, my NB is wc'ed

thanks for the PLL advise. I lowered it to 1.6v with same stability.

I'm using asus p5k deluxe black pearl edition Everything with watercooled included NB and SB

I'm bored with my [email protected] so I'm trying to push it higher seems like getting a bit more extra takes a lot more effort lol Anyway... my current setting 8x475 3.8 vCore 1.45v (1.42 read by OCCT) cpu PLL 1.8v VTT 1.3v SB 1.2v NB 1.7v

I was putting on the swiftech 4870 block when i got some artic silver 5 around the ram. I went to clean it, but I think it got underneath. Is that ok?
