    Weired hardware problems after overclock

    hi, are you sure that your PSU can bring up the juice for your OC on the videocard? I read some specs and the 400MHz OC isn't extremely high.(425 MHz is possible,stock cooling ;) ) Had some similar problems.Upped the PSU from 450Watt to a 650Watt PSU. (you should see all the crap that's...

    Weird floppy problem

    I've had the same problem. It happened after I reconfigured my rig. All the floppy's where not recognised, allthough windows did see the drive. After checking the cables , I noticed that one end ,plugged in the drive ,was up-side-down. But I've got another wierd problem :confused: Once...

    Trying to make a light momentary, 1-2s after power up

    hey I found this circuit, should solve your problem. ;) Good luck. LED- one-shot circuit (time adjustable) Only have to add a resitor in serie,to reduce the voltage over your LED. (between output (pin 3),LED and ground.) Greetz Lite_user

    "Little River Cascade" block, becomes "Dirty River"

    Hi Since I've been using my selfmade jet-impingement block, I noticed that the little holes , where cloging up.But flow was still good, about 2 l/min. :) And one day, my rig went dead.My girlfriend woke me up saying,that she restarted over and over ,but it shutdown after 3 seconds. So my...

    Hi I would like to move a thread of mine. Can I do it myself or what is the proper way to do it? And when does a thread becomes sticky? Or is this also a moddable feature? Thanks in advance. Grtz

    AGP VDDQ voltage?

    AGP voltage - is the voltage supplied to your AGP card. Raising the voltage to anything above stock (1.5v) is not recommended. This voltage will not help you overclock your GPU further. It will only enable you to increase the AGP bus, which in most cases, doesn’t increase performance by...

    pc not booting

    Go back to BIOS setup. Check under boot devices, if you're booting from the correct harddrive. If there is no harddrive selected it will try boot from other devices, such as cd-drive,floppy. Had similar problems, when setting my bios.Sometimes it would change the device list boot priority...

    Radiator placement important?

    It depends on the waterblocks your using. If you have restrictive blocks, it's not a good idea to put the rad before your blocks. That's what most people would say. But I have installed 2 rad's, one like you proposed (after outlet pump) and the second after the blocks. I have no problems...

    Integrity of stretched hose

    It's a common method here at work. I work in the paintshop of a carplant (Daimler-Chrysler), and if some paint-tubes won't fit we lay them in some paint-disolver.Not for long.But as Momo said hot water will do just fine. It maybe strange, but ,every trade has its tricks. ;) Grtz

    Integrity of stretched hose

    Lay your tube-ends in some sort of thinner, gasoline,white spirit,(liquid to clear off paint) this will soften it. When they're weak push it over your barbs.It will shrink back a little,after drying When you use heat it might deform permanently. Mind, not to soften them to long, as the...

    noob cpu fan question

    If you boot a first with the old bios-settings, it will probably reboot saying the CPU fan isn't connected. So enter your bios for you remove the CPU fan, change under "hardwaremonitoring" the fan-control option to "disable". Most motherboard bios'es will have this option. I found out the...

    Put CPU in freezer to separate it from heatsink???

    Hi i'm planning on cleaning my CPU-waterblock. I had some problems removing the old heatsink, and so read a bit around. Found that putting it in the freezer for about one hour, it would fall off :eek: Have some of you tried this method? (used common thermal paste) Grtz

    Warhammer benchmark ???

    Flashing different Default freq's?

    Flashed my 6800LE to 6800NU, now speeds are higher at stock, and OC-speeds are higher then with old BIOS. Here is a link to MVKtech where you can pick your BIOS, you can check settings of your BIOS with this Nibitor ,before you flash. Try Zinn's solution first.Oh yeah if you got several...

    Swtiches setup for watercooling

    in this thread we had some ideas about how to turn on your PC with aditional switches and stuff. But what you want is a sort of flow control, if you want your PC to turn on with pump. That's a bit complicated, you'll have to use a secondary cicuit to control a relay. That relay determines if...

    connecting cold cathode to external power adapter

    yes in fact you must undervolt it, or it will not last long at 12 Vdc. I've got a 30 cm CCFL connected (with inverter) to a adjustable AC-DC adapter, and it's set at 6Vdc. Or put 2 CCFL's in serie, that adds up to 12Vdc, with a nice brightness. Grtz

    Watercooling in a Tsunami case (tight squeeze) installed!

    Nice job on your WC-setup. It has been a tight squeeze indeed. Yeah, when I installed my WC, I didn't worry a lot about cables,wires and stuff. That's for the next project. ;) No,no great job. Maybe post some temperatures to compare with future OC results. Oh, is your radiator-fan...

    Pump mounting

    there will be no problem if you mount a reservoir higher then your pump-inlet. After you've filled the system with water,it will equalize.Now fill as high as in the picture and you'll be safe about having air in your pump. [/IMG] Grtz

    Measuring flow

    Looks good, I don't see anly problems here.The pump gives a surtain amount of heat. But it's not so much, in air. Submerged in water, like my pump, you'll have do deal with all the pump-heat. So I would go for this setup.The loss of a few Watts isn't a big deal. Just make a fairly large...

    daishi's drunken ramblings

    He'll never get the heat-spreader of the chip,if he does, it will crack at startup, due to fast and big temp changes. That's why the nice people who make those CPU's, seat a heatercore for us. We go from there. Nice dream ;) Grtz

    Push or pull?

    best way to use the full capacity of a radiator is allways to pull air through the rad. Because every bit of the rad will be used.Even better is to make a shroud a few inches thick. But the best way of putting this is; there is much less turbulence with pulling air, then with pushing.And...

    Measuring flow

    sorry that's a no go about putting the rads on top of each other.Because the allready heated air, only will have a minimal effect on the second rad.Eihter way it's not using the rad's full potential.Next to each other,is no problem. I looked at your case and seems you'll have some room for two...

    Measuring flow

    Just lay one end (suction) in a bucket of water and the (presure) other end in your litre-jar. Then you can measure your flow untill the bucket is empty.I tested it outside my system. But if you attach longer tubes to in-and oulet, you'll be able to do the test with WC still in your rig...

    Measuring flow

    it's the best low bugdet way.Just make sure the measurement is accurate. Get a measuring jar for like in the kitchen. ;) 1 or 2 minutes and that's the real flow of your system. said it before :) Grtz

    Watercooling Experiment

    no problem here there is one 12cm inlet and two 8cm dual outlet. Still have a flow of 2 litres/min,that ain't bad believing the graphs. But due to the big reservoir, I maintain a delta T of 20 C at load. :D Ho yeah the block looks a bit like this one,or, this one ,only 2 oulets. :p Grtz

    fan and light controller

    I think you could connect a ccfl or any 12volt light to that controller.It might need some modding on the connectors and turn the voltage, of that specific chanel, all the way down before you hook up the light or whatever. It goes up to 18Watts powersupply.I've got a 30cm CCFL connected to a...

    Watercooling Experiment

    Thanks, I'm using common 3/8" hand-closed valves, just to be able to separate the PC from the WC-setup.They're at the same hight, so when you disconnect, the water will not leak out.This is due to "the principal of communicating vessels".And a flow-control (industrial, he, if it's free :p ) to...
