Got my new AC L2 Pro today. My idle GPU temps dropped 10*C.

I had been idling normally at 51*C because of the heat this week, it's now 41*C instead. I didn't even use the VRM sinks. My VRMs are all placed funny on the PCB, oh well.

Edit- Photo for your enjoyment.

Glad to see it's doing better. Looks great too! Can we get a shot of the whole internals now with the new cooler?

Both of my rigs will be down until Tuesday I'm pretty sure I'll still be able to get the 50k for the contest though, as I'll have my E8400 up and running again when I get back. The board for it should have came in the mail today...

Once I'm done with the next two members, I'll give you a hand bro if you still need it.

I think I'll be alright, but thanks and we'll see. I swear, my current Q9450 + x2 245 combo puts out barely any more than my old E8400 + 245 combo. The quad needs to be overclocked. But, in order to do that I'll need a cooler better than my Dark Knight (or will need to lap my DK). I'm keeping an eye out for a good one, but am broke right now.

Try lapping bro, if done right it helps tremendously.

I'm at 82,608 right now, need to be over 101,000 to be part of the contest. I think. At this rate I'm getting about 8,500 PPD, so it'll only take me until the weekend to be set, in which case everyone can switch their rigs somewhere else and I'll keep crunching for myself.

i got to say that i feel much better now not having my chipset in the mid 70's while crunching. I haven't seen it hit 60c yet and i am running the cooler passive. The stock one had a spot cool on it.
I see no need for a fan on this one because it is so close to the bottom fan on the CPU heatsink that it gets the air flow from it.

I am also a bit worried about the electric bill. I currently have a i7 860 and a Phenom II 555 both crunching 24/7 at 4Ghz each.

Yep, ask Paulieg about it. If I recall correctly, he shut down two 24/7 i7 machines or something and knocked off only $15 from the power bill/

WCG crunching sure is more cost effective than GPU F@H, sometimes I wonder if it would be more effective to have two bare bones i7s one for WCG and one for F@H rather than running power hungry GPUs. Opinions?
