Isn't that thing Loud?
I've never used one but have read people complaining that it's loud on a number of occasions.

If you spin up the stock fans it is, but there's no point in doing that. The difference between low and high is one degree in temperature; the fin density is high enough for fan speed to not make a different in CFM. At low speed the fans are inaudible.

I've been tempted by the H80/H100 for a while now, but I know they most likely won't beat my Frio Sad


Corsair watercooling units are so overpriced (H100 not worth it atleast), i got this Antec 620 for 44euros, was sweet deal. But if you are wondering, even this 620 wins Frio. H100 in the otherhand is very powerfull if you do Push & Pull Configuration lets say 4x Gentle Typhoons 1850rpm, it wins every available cooler out there.

I've not seen a single review where these closed systems really get a major advantage over something like my Frio or an NH-D14; not enough to warrant spending twice what I paid for my Frio and having to reseat it all anyway.

Check these for example:
- http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/2011/07/21/antec-k-hler-h2o-920/2
- http://www.kitguru.net/components/cooling/zardon/antec-kuhler-h20-620-liquid-cooler-review/4/

My Frio performs equal to a DH14 (didn't use Thermaltake's thermal paste for the record, substituted my own). I run my 760 at 4.4 GHz with all the fans on low speed, it peaks at 71 degrees with Linpack. Takes a while to get it up there, but I haven't had it go over that.

I need to find a review of the H100 with a proper 4-fan push/pull configuration like you suggest there, as that seems like the only one which SHOULD really be ahead of pure air coolers. With that big of a radiator, it SHOULD make a massive difference, and it would fit perfectly in my Phantom as well :/

I like this thread! Here is my current rig

Case: Corsair Obsidian 800D
Mobo: EVGA X58 FTW3
CPU: Core i7 930 @ 4.42Ghz
RAM: Corsair Dominator GT 6GB 1683Mhz 7-7-7-20
GPUs: EVGA GTX 480 Hydro Copper SLI
SSD: Corsair Performance 3 128GB
HDD: Western Digital Caviar Black 750GB
PSU: Corsair HX 1050W

Some pics of my setup. Finally got my RAM installed along with the replacement videocard from EVGA RMA after the whole lightning bolt thing:





Pic from last month when I had the old RAM and the white extension cables:
 Spoiler:
 

I removed the white sleeved extensions because lately I had to move too much crap around with the lightning and everything and it just makes it easier to have them out of the way Laughing Il eventually put them back in at some point.

Some benchmarks:

3dMark11 on "performance" preset:


3dMark11 on "extreme" preset:


Windows Experience Index (yes I still use this thing to benchmark Very Happy Very Happy )

Why did you remove those white things from power cables? To break monotony? Very Happy

Thanks I glad you guys like it. And Werelds, its really not that difficult if I can do it. The most confusing part about watercooling I found was the tubing and fitting sizes. Im currently using 1/2" ID (inner diameter) and 3/4" OD tubing with the same size compression fittings. And for the barb fittings, all you need to match is your tubing's inner diameter to the barb's inner diameter

Seriously nice tubing routing on that rig. What rad and pump are you using? Oh and Werelds...

Hey, Timechange, did you know that they actually make white Herbie style plastic clamps for watercooling?

Yea I have a few of those herbie clamps in black but I honestly hate them. Theyre so impossible to take off which is why I went with the screw clamps instead.

The rad Im using is a Thermochill PA 120.3 and the pump is a MCP655

They actually make a special tool to remove those that makes it much much easier to remove them.

I'm running a thermochill 120.4 and an MCP655. Those rads are absolutely flawless. This is the second one that I've owned. The other one is on my other system currently and still performs excellently after five years.

Kinda embarassed about the noctua fans,I hate that fucking colour even though they are good fans. I'm In the process of changing them to white led fans once I find good ones,especially 14cm.

Also considering changing H70 to H100,but I guess the benefit of that is not earth shattering. Smile

Yeah mate. 2 3" blue cold cathodes. One is on the side of the ssd drive bay and the other is behind the fan on the bottom. There is also a purple tube on the left hand side just to break up the colour in the case a little. Two fans that have blue LED's as well. There is also a fan in front of the HDD's to keep them cool. It has the ability of changing colour, 256 I believe.

Got same (or similar) Fractal Design case (R3).

I couldn't care less about led lights and bling bling, but the smooth and conservative design of the Fractal Design is great.
