<0> hey
<0> so anyone have a watercooling system?
<1> I don't trust them
<1> I don't trust my mutli-thousand dollar computer to a few millimeters of rubber.
<1> Condoms break, so does water cooling
<0> and thats why people use them right?
<0> they don't even use water
<1> They use liquid
<0> they use special liquids
<1> And call me old fashioned but I don't have enough of a cooling or noise problem to trust liquid coolant eyt
<0> and what computer do you have thats multi-thousand dollar?
<1> yet*
<2> supposedly non-conductive liquids
<1> Athlon64 X2 3800+, 2GB of OCZ DC DDR400, 2 BFG 7800GTX-TD512s
<0> well look at solutions you put between chips and their heatsinks. they have liquid in them
<1> 400 and 160GB SATA 2 hard drives
<0> your computer is not multithousand
<1> Yeah. yeah it is
<0> at max 2 thousand
<1> My video cards were 1400
<1> processor was 380
<1> the RAM was 250
<2> multi- means "more than one"
<0> WERE
<1> so now you're already at 2000
<1> That was 3 weeks ago. Prices haven't dropped THAT rapidly
<0> I have dual opterons 4gb ram
<2> it cost home the same amount of money regardless
<0> 1tb of space
<0> and dual opterons need ecc reg ram
<1> Alright
<0> I don't consider my system multi-thousand dollar
<1> What video card(s)?
<0> its not a mainframe ya know
<0> geforce 6600
<1> Exactly
<1> 6600s go for about 100 bucks (a little more)
<1> I hvae TWO 512MB 7800GTXs
<0> what more does your video card do that mine?
<3> my computer cost me 4k
<1> Besides run Call of Duty 2 maxed out on 1600x1200 with 8xAA and 16xAF?
<2> nevermind that it takes time and effort to build a computer
<1> and I have a legal copy of Windows XP Pro, just to add that 149.99
<0> 8xAA and 16xAF?
<4> im running dual 7800gtx's, athlon 64 4000+
<4> 1gb pc4800 OCZ platinum ram
<4> pc power and cooling 510watt sli psu
<1> multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional (bootscreen)" /fastdetect /KERNEL=kernel1.exe
<1> err
<1> wrong c/p
<4> asus a8n-sli premium mobo
<1> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814143044
<1> 2 of those
<4> aquacomputer liquid cooling on the gtx's, processor, hard drives (dual 74gb raptors), chipset, and mosfets
<0> dang, what kind of video cards does xbox and ps2/psp use?
<1> xbox uses a modified 6800 ultra.
<1> ps2 uses a modified 9600xt
<1> and psp uses a modified 9600se
<1> xbox 360 uses a modified x1800xt
<0> whats 8xAA and 16xAF?
<1> Driver-level settings that make the game look better when rendered.
<5> hmm i thought xbox used a modifed geforce 2 32mb
<5> with intel p3 733mhz
<4> AA takes away jaggies
<4> AF makes things look better at a distance
<0> my geforce 6600 can run all the games I play just fine
<1> Burntman: No. The core is based on the 6800, but it's only 32MB, with geforce2 level pipelines
<1> So it could be considered either
<5> ahh
<5> ok
<1> It could be an upgraded geforce 2, or a downgraded geforce 6800
<4> svx
<1> svx, your games run fine. I ran games fine with a 9600xt.
<4> to answer your question
<4> I have 2 watercooled pc's
<0> whats the point of running 2 7800GTXs? you just get more outputs. unless one card is strictly a DSP card giving more power
<4> any questions about them?
<1> Exactly, svx.
<4> SLi
<1> SLI.
<4> watercooling is extremely safe
<4> theres pretty much no chance you will fry anything by using it
<0> oh SLI. so the other card you put in as a pci slot but doesn't need to be connected to the mobo? just connect it to the other existing video card?
<2> if you use distilled water
<2> it shouldn't be conductive
<0> Fidelity_ you use water cooling?
<4> yes
<0> what kind?
<4> I have 2 boxes with watercooling
<4> my older one has a thermaltake bigwater se system
<4> and my current box has aquacomputer parts
<4> imported from Germany
<4> :D
<0> I'm doing my research of what to get right now
<4> watercooling loops use non conductive liquid
<4> so if it spills
<4> you will be fine
<0> I wanter water cooling for my 2 opteron cpus, nforce4 northbridge, and geforce 6600 video card
<4> sounds reasonable
<0> I find that most people use koolance and dangerden
<4> those are the 2 most mainstream companies
<4> koolance offers ease of installation
<4> and dangerden is readily available to everyone
<0> thermaletake is just as mainstreem
<4> yep
<4> :)
<2> MAD DOG!
<0> so is aquacomputer
<4> im not saying its a bad thing
<4> aquacomputer isint so mainstream
<0> I'm just more to trust what everyone else uses and doesn't have a problem with
<4> its more uncommon
<2> good thing, too...wouldn't want a cooling system that everyone else has!
<4> lol
<4> just making a statement
<4> plenty of people in the us have an AC system
<0> I want to get my water cooling system at around 200 bucks
<2> Yeah well I was wearing Doc Martins in 1989 BEFORE THEY WERE COOL MAN!
<4> then id look into dangerden
<6> AHAH. ****ing hell. Problem has been identified at least.
<6> my 160GB hard dirve in my work computer is bad
<0> newegg doesn't sell danger den
<0> wussup with that
<4> and thats why you always run raid0
<4> newegg doesnt sell much in the way of watercooling
<4> raid1*
<4> sorry
<4> raid 1
<6> I couldn't decide which of the two drives was causing my MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION BSOD. So I ran without the 400GB data drive, and the error occured while I was copying data from a CD to my drive
<6> Fidelity: I have no need for it. ON this system, no data is left on the primary drive. All my important data is on the server which IS raid 1
<0> let me look at pricewatch
<4> ok then
<0> Fidelity_ man I can't wait to have my computer SILLENT
<4> heh
<4> yea
<0> with watercooling you can't hear a thing right?
<4> the radiator fans
<4> thats it
<0> its like pitch silent
<4> with my system
<4> i wanted more performance
<4> didnt care about noise
<6> Same here
<4> so im running 2 radiators
<4> 3x 120mm fans and 1x 120mm fans
<4> they are quiet.
<6> The sound of my fans is the white noise that puts me to sleep
<0> I've noticed that any problem I have with my video is not because it can't process fast enough, but because of the heat
<4> watercooling will fix that
<0> after it gets a certain temp it ****s
<4> heh
