Bought mine from overclockers about a week ago, considering how much it costs ive seen very little decrease in temperature over my £10 coolermaster- cpu still running toasty at 50C+ even at stock.
Probably cuz your running a 80mm Zalman (Stealth??), thermalright's work best with high cfm fans We Will See how my temps do on thursday\friday Death
Yea thats where i got mine from last night As its sand-blasted would i be right in thinking that i wont get it any better by lapping it? Death
im thinking of goin fanless with mine, would u recomend this? i wanted to put the hyper six on it but it doesnt fit [edit] Sorry, on my AMD XP2500 M, on the NF7-S!
SP-97 only performs well with a high volume fan. so i'd say the performance would be terrible if you run it fanless. Your best option would be to go and get a Zalman 7000. you wont hear it at all, besides its almost impossible to run any modern computer Completely fanless (well its possible but the comp won't last long )
Are you sure it wasn't sand-blasted as i got mine from there and it was, unless u ordered it a while ago?? Death
Mine was ordered a month or so ago, it never said sand blasted on the site then. I wouldnt say the performance was terrible on a low volume fan, ive got a 80mm fan from the coolermaster x-dream on it right now and its on the lowest setting and im @ 36degrees right now.
Yay! Just got confirmation e-mails sayin its been sent, "should" be here tomoz On a side note, spending money (on your computer, as well) doesnt make u miss your g/f any less Death
There maybe plenty more fish in the sea, but what happens when you can't have the one you want??? What happens when in your eyes she is the only dolphin and the rest are ... (insert name of scrawney fish here)???? Don't get me wrong The Strrets lyrics are top notch, and do mean alot when you think about it, he is by far one of the best artists, tells it how it is, but its still how i feel Death
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/zalman_fans.html One at the top. Has fairly decent output, more than my coolermaster thats for sure anyway.
kkkk Okkkk, ive just got my fans thru (heatsink should be here later today) and i thought lets see how loud this Tornado is shall we??? I'm sorry but the loudness of that fan takes the p*ss, it's the loudest fan ive ever heard i'm not sure i wanna put it in my comp incase it takes off Death
Rsurection Just wondering, is there any way to undervolt these Tornados without a fan contoller?? I serouosly dont think i can cope with it that loud all the time, it drowns out every other fan, on two computers Oh and Xen0, it had the neo backplate with it, now i have two wheres the gun smiley when you need one Death
are you sure it had the neo backplate with it are you sure its not just the standard one that comes with it?
