    I bought a new case off Frodo on here.

    The rig is a x6800ee Core2Duo, on an evga 680i board. Cheapo corsair ram, and a 'PCIE oven' gx2.

    Currently sitting on my desk at 19c, clocked at 3712/1.55v. Pretty happy with that, considering it's 27c in here, and before this setup, when i was using 'just' watercooling it was at a scary 54c @ 3.5ghz/1.5v!

    Here's the pics:

    I assume that's a waterchiller you've got there, how have you done it?

    Water cooling with a chiller?

    It almost looks like you're running phase-change cooling

    Yep, watercooling using a chiller. I have to be so careful not to get condensation, but I'm trying to find the sweet spot. I think about 22-25c will be the norm.

    I'll take a few other pics later. :)

    It is, if a little loud. Gave me a bit of a surprise when the compressor first turned off - it shook the whole desk!

    still, its a good laugh ;)
