If you get a UPS, I suggest you only have computer plugged into it with computer set to shutdown as soon as UPS kicks in. Link below is to UPS...
Might be worth considering a simple low-cost custom loop. More cost up front, but if flushed and refilled every 1.5-2 years will last many times...
I wouldn't get UPS unless you have power problems. Most places nowadays have few power interruptions so UPS are redundant. Also keep in mind UPS...
I know this a few days old now, but just for a bit of comparison here is Nidec Servo Gentle Typhoon running load versus startup load in green and...
Cryorig R1 and Phanteks PH-TC14PE are every bit as good as NH-D15, and not as wide. NH-D15 is 150mm wide .. it is 75mm from center of CPU toward...
Quality comes at a price, so I figured maybe it's better to up the budget a little for a AIO instead of a CLC or a cooler that does not block 1st...
Great price for Silver Arrow SB-E! Just make sure you have room for it toward PCIe sockets. They have Silver IB-E Extreme for £74.99. It has...
AIO are good as long as they are not CLCs. The AlpaCool Eisbaer, be quiet! Silent Loop and Fractal Design Kelvin are good. I think the Silent...
The failure problem is minimal, but the life expectancy. Cost difference is significant, and CLCs are way less dependable than air coolers....
Sorry, I wasn't trying to attack your results in any way. My experience using both i7 920 and i7-980x is 920 ran hotter than 980x did, so the...
Radically different results to what you got with TRUE Sprit 140 Power w/ 2x TY-143 against your TRUE CU in your previous testing on .. was it...
Moved from another thread. The H105 and similar 240s as good as, if not better than most air coolers though. 120's don't really differentiate...
I'm starting a thread for CLC vs air coolers.
Thank you aLtikal. That is basically it. CLCs do clear access to RAM and x16 PCIe sockets (for GPU), but I think most users moved to CLC because...
Siding with Yadda the troll .. not the kind of thing I expected from you. I though you were better then that, not to mention your above post...
Or people can read information posted by other who care about their fellow man that explains the shortcomings of CLCs and then make informed...
I guess the 'big deal' is 'it' so 'it' is the lack of informed choice. CLC advertising has been hyped from day one with the word 'water' .....
If you don't understand why many CLC users are moving back to air I'm not going to spend more time trying to explain it more than I already have....
Sorry GeorgeK :rolleyes: I lost it there.:blush: What about all the X-users of CLCs who hate them? You would probably be surprised how many...
I see CLCs as one step (maybe half a step) above junk. The are a problem just waiting to happen. Corsair will only do what law required them to...
