Few pics of my watercooled Stacker

[Minstadave]

Spec:

Winnie 3000 at 2.7Ghz 1.625V

DFI NF4 Ultra-D with modded Zalman chipset sink

TwinMOS speed premium BH5 at 245Mhz 2-2-2-5 3.5V

X800XT PCI-E

Watercooling:

DD TDX A64 block

Silverprop SL GFX Block

120mm Heatercore shrouded with 120mm SilenX fan

Eheim 1250 Pump

Just a few pics after a bit of a tidy up:

Red underlighting looks quite cool



Going to need the windowed side panel sometime



Internals looking a bit neater than usual, knocked up a quick shroud for the heatercore, hot air is exhausted through the base of the case

My magical little chipset cooler



Liberal use of cable ties to stop kinks



Ram and Mofset cooling aided by 2x120mm front fans

Looking good mate. Was that originally a zalman passive chipset heatsink? pretty cool anyway.

How are your water temps? I would have thought quite high with the position of the rad/ran etc

Yup its a Zalman ZM-NB47J chipset cooler, bent with a pair of pliers to get it to fit around the GFX, chipset is always below 40 degrees now.

Water temps are good, idle at around 32-35 degrees, load about 40-45 with 1.65V and fans at minimum.

Looks good bud

I noticed your chipset cooler, I have brought an Ultra-D (shoudl be here this morning ) and last night whilst reading a review had the exact same thought

I was however going to cut up an old SoA heatsink to do it

Nice going though

Love that chipset cooler, great solution to the problem.

Dave... you should get yourself one of these fan brackets from Zalman...

They're only about £4 and allow you to mount upto 3 fans on them... then you can have a proper fan right above your RAM and then crank the juice through it

Works a treat for me... I also have a fan over the PWM IC.

Yeah I was thinking of something more permanent, will pick one up sometime, cheers
