M40's Rigs

[AquaMuscle]

I just had to try my hd 5970, so i took of all wc blocks and put on stock cooling. I put inn all the sleeved cabling and one fan controller.

Had to cut out a piece to make the card fit. To long, imagine that So have a look

Yeah, that's one big ass card Will you be watercooling the 5970 also? Got some nice benchmarks for us?

 

[M40TURBO]

Yep i'll be water cooling them both. Second card is on the way

TWO?? Thats some serious firepower right there dude

 

[M40TURBO]

Yes yes, why not It's now fired up and seems to be working. Now to change the fw on the fan controller from german to english..

VERY NICE! Looking forward to seeing it all done I myself is waiting for the new nVidia cards...

 

[M40TURBO]

Yes i cant wait until the finished rig. But now i've got this up and runing, and the fan controller in English. It's more lika a mini computer :S

So many functions and options. LOL. Time to reinstall some display drivers and rivatuner.. And of course do a bench test

 

[M40TURBO]

This is what i got. Q9650 @4.5ghz and asus hd5970 1,237v. Clock @ 950/1100mhz

We will see what happens when a second card gets inn there..

Nice, but why not invest in i7? You seem to have the money

 

[NTXlaser]

That looks very impressive, and those xigmatek fans aggresive

 

[M40TURBO]

I like the q9650 and the UD3P. The next project might be the new dual cpu mobo from evga and the new i9 cpu's. If it was correct that it was suported that is..

 

[M40TURBO]

Well this is what i got today :beerchug:

 

[xenunx]

THIS IS CRAZY! Gooodluck with the build!

 

[AMDFTW]

woooooow will that cpu cooler not face the other way? worst place to port heat IMO

 

[M40TURBO]

Nope it won't. But i'm thinking of putting on my waterblock to get the cpu temps lower. Try to oc a bit more Put it in my old bigger case maybe..

 

[killablade]

You defo need a bigger case, WC FTW, and I'm looking forward to that EVGA dual cpu thing if you're going to do that

 

[M40TURBO]

Well, logan @ TTLC has my lian li b70 now, so things are happenig. Can't wait to put it together,

Aahh and what did you ask for? I'm guessing black powdercoat (interior), window...

 

[M40TURBO]

Yep, right on. How did you know He's making a rad grill on top like on the aurora 2009 case also..

We will see if i as him about putting the 360 at the bottom and the 240 on top. He said its better to have the 360 inn the top and the 240 in front.

Wanted to have the mesh grill removed and replaced with a piece of metal or alu, but he didn't think it would come out too good.

Maybe because i wanted it in silver? But it should be alright to get one in black. Sand it to get the brushed look. Then make two holes to see the fans.

And at the top cut out M40. That would be cool. With a led behind it

 

[M40TURBO]

I had to try putting my parts inn the old case. Some cutting and drilling was needed.

But when all parts where inn place and i hit the start button. Nothing happen. Just my luck.

So i'll have to go over all the parts and see if i can find out whats wrong.. This is just a build i did for the fun of it, and wc the cpu to try and push it some more :crazy:
