The long-awaited pics of my cooling

Hey hey,

I finally got my a$$ in gear and uploaded these... Anyway, (as some of you know), the rig illustrated in this picture is now dead (but survived all of the testing in the pictures fine - it died 2 days later). :( Anyway... Here it is, please pay your respects to the late NF7-S.

And yes, there is quite a bit of ghetto action going on here (credit card fitting, etc :D).

Edit: Btw, the pictures where the copper tube is attached to the Radeon... Yes, that is direct die cooling (water touching the card itself, nothing between the water and the metal :)).

Nope, just looking for a way to squeeze a few extra mhz out of my system. :)

Any other comments? I mean, come on, lots of views, and only 1 reply? :(

You weren't lying when you said ghetto.

Hey, could you expect any less (or rather, any more :)) from me?

None, I never ran 3dmark. :o Since I was doing direct-die cooling, I had to cover the pins around the 9800's core, and apparently they don't like being covered. I got artifacts even in Windows :eek: so I didn't even bother with 3dmark.

The NB watercooling got me 5 extra FSB (stable). :) I filled it with ice and topped it off with water.

Dood, you're SICK! gotta hand it to ya though, someone had to try it :D

Ghettolicious.

xDUCK, that's taking ghetto to a new high :eek: (or it is low?:p ). Hope you've got better luck with the Intel you're getting.:)

Ghetto-fabulous!

Good work xDuck, personally I would have just hooked up an AC machine next to it and called it a day.

If we had a ghetto mod award around here, xDuck would definitely deserve to be a recipient. :D

Heh, forgot to include this one... Who needs fittings? :D

Now, THIS picture warrants some sort of award, even if I do say so myself. :D

Yo man, is that a bong hooked up to the CPU ?!

Dr. T...
