    Need a better PS, right?

    Good advice. I monitored the 12V CPU rail with a multimeter. Here are the results: SWVolt = CPU core voltage reported by software utilities. HWVolt = The reading I made on my multimeter. % = CPU utilization percentage temp = CPU temp. SWVolt---HWVolt---%---temp --1.47----12.13-----2----16...

    Need a better PS, right?

    With winter now upon us, I've been sticking my radiator out the window with great overclocking success (Don't worry, condensation and freezing is under control, I have plenty of glycol and silicone at hand). It's dawned on me that my PS probably isn't cutting it. You guys be the judges - is...

    What is your coolant of choice?

    As I'm the first person to say they use ethylene glycol in their system (with distilled water, about 5-10% glycol), I'm ready to hear why this is extremely bad beyond what's below: Pros: Additives prevent corrosion Things don't grow in glycol I don't need to worry about freezing until about -5...

    Another DIY Water Cooling Rig

    You're quite right; as I write this it's at 3.88 for stability's sake. At 4.0 I observe rather large voltage dips at full load, which makes me believe my power supply is the culprit. I should also consider non-stock northbridge cooling. Believe me, this adventure isn't over, and x% stability...

    Another DIY Water Cooling Rig

    Ya, it's an aquarium pump. The friend I bought it from was an old school overclocker (back when 600 MHz on a Celron was something to boast about), and probably bought the pump about 6 years ago. The radiator + pump were practically given to me, so it wasn't really bad fiscal design. Thanks...

    Another DIY Water Cooling Rig

    I recently finished a water cooling project, and thought I'd share it with everyone. Nothing special; I did get to hang the radiator out the window on a nice cold day :) Mike Rooke's Blag
