Removed boring cold cathodes, I prefer it without.

 

[brandonwh64]

So i got bored and had two DOA sets of cold cathodes on my hands and i took it apart and started messing with the inverter and figured out the problem! now i have two working sets of cathodes.

Quite well now. 120Hz used to be completely broken on the HD5, but not anymore. There are still issues with overclocking causing screen flickering and slight issues with non-native resolutions at 120Hz tho. Gaming at native res and 120Hz works which is the most important.

Well i took the inverters apart and realised they had a small soldered in fuse and well i took some wire and wired the leads together and they worked perfect. I also shocked the piss out of myself with the output AC voltage and i must say it hurt bad.

Here is the second set

well thats nice, maybe its about time to be saving for one of the new 24" full hd 120hz then

It shouldnt. i ran them for 1 hour and made sure i didnt smell burning stuff and checked the heat on it. also my power supply has a voltage overload cut off so if it tried to surge then the PSU will kick itsself off

I also shocked the shit out of myself on some cathodes. Was cleaning out the ends where you hook them up to the inverter and forgot it was plugged in and poked my finger in there and it burnt me leaving 2 little burn dots on my pointer finger.

No pic just yet, but due to the length of 5770 and its stock cooling(batmobile) having a support bar the card makes a great place to just sit fans.

Got a 92mm blowing at my ram and northbridge right now XD

This just makes me more happy. When someone shows up with the EXACT same brand GPU/PSU/motherboard/memory/case right after I sold mine it just goes to show how attractive the setup actually was. Kudos man, and stop stealing my ideas

You have good taste, sir. Btw was planning this build long ago, you just got it done first.

a littel rig i put together for a friend of mine today

specs are :
Gigabyte GA-EX58A-UD7
i7 930
H50
dominator 1600 3x2gb 7-8-7-20
HX1000W
HIS 5870
800D
old OCZ 128gb SSD

this is an insane machine and he's gonna add 2 more 5870s to it soon

the cooler on that board is insane

 

[sNiPeRbOb]

he should splice that gigabyte block into the h50 setup. Looks like a powerhouse though!

 

[brandonwh64]

i would like to have that 5870!

ok changed the hoses around a bit, lemme know whatcha think and if i should change it up a bit

i would have interchanged the tubing on the dtek, so that the pump is pushing water directly at the block... the fuzion has very high restriction from what i know, so it might benefit you more,than colder water from your rads

yeah just didn't have the ability to switch like i wanted to because the pump design only allows for one flow direction and the res was in the way of my video card before

 

[brandonwh64]

nice setup prime!!!!

 

[exodusprime1337]

thanx man, still working it out.. kinda hate the fact that i put all the hose and and didn't think it through clear enough, now i want to try and change the order of the shit...

 

[brandonwh64]

you i also have to redo my hoses. Im thinking of making a trip to home depot or lowes to see if they have better hoses that i can use and also i have to find screws for my swiftech NB block
