No more hot processors, i just received and fitted my gigabyte 3d cooler rocket pro, my original temps were 60 celcius idle and and 64 under load, now i,m getting 40 celcius idle, and havent tried it under load!!! NOT ONLY THAT BUT MY CASE TEMP HAS GONE DOWN 10 CELCIUS!!!

Yeah that looks like a nice heatsink.

imagine what a little cooling will do for you
which heatsink/fan were you running before and what processor?

 

[ardy891]

right sorry for the long reply, i'm runing a amd athlon xp 3200+, BEFORE I HAD A COOLERMASTER XDREAM 2 AND IT REALLY WAS AWFUL!!!

Looks like a good improvement!

Indeed it does! I use liquid on most of my systems, but I do have a heatpipe cooler as well. Is this heatpipe type that you are using now?

 

[David Lindon]

Talking about liquid, have you seen the new complete emersion cooling systems?

 

[DarkBlade1]

No, URL please... Sounds neat! Maybe I will invest in one!!

Oh it is LN2, not water. LN2 is a pain as of right now... NVM that sillyness. I would never try to push my processor that far, although I have tried LN2 experiement one time with a P4. That was fun!
