Post your commentgreat all around everything, only thing I had a problem with was the water cooling wish there was a way to make it look clean 9/10
pc6400, have you thought about trying better memory,
better memory??i`ve got one of the best GMHs in the market (if you know what this is..).1250mhz with 5-5-5-10....
wouldn`t change if for nothing at least now...

I like G-skill memory, and the G-skill you have do overclock well, but pc8500 also runs at cl5, and no I dident no about them till now, where can I pick up a set. because I'm working on a new pc with the E6850 cpu and was looking at the CORSAIR Dominator TWIN2X2048-8500C5D 5-5-5-15. but want to give G-skill a try. is this the set you have http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16820231065
great setup 10/10
that`s the set i have yes..but an older batch wich goes better from newer ones..
it`s a great piece of memory..

I would have given you a 9 if you had a black dvd/burner and floppy.
yeah..i wanted silver front bezels but i couldnt find anywhere here...
spray paint them to match your case

8/10 needs more led
???? how hard is it to work with 1/2 tubing?
???? how hard is it to work with 1/2 tubing?
with this primoflex tubing it`s a piece of cake..that`s why i wanted to squeeze everything in the case...
very difficult with the Soprano but after a day i got it working..
as for the led,i don`t know if i`ll put some...i`m only thinking of blue UV water additive..

Looks good but did you splice the power switch to the pump (referencing the last pic)?
the pump was to work 24/7 taking power not from the pc but from a plug.
so i cut the power cable and i attached an on/off switch.

George please post more info about temperatures.
Which are ambient, CPU idle and full load values?

Looks good....
One thing though..... You have some really hairy knee's! lol
I am just messing with ya!

Yeah i know......hehehehe....
The temps?right now with 26C room temp,i have at 3800mhz @ 1.44Vcore,idle 32C and load 52C @ orthos priority 10.
And the GTS at 650/1728/1000,has 39C idle - 44-45C load..

Wires could be better...Maybe I'm the only one, but I don't like the case window at all.
Did you do any more OCing to your GPU besides changing shaders?
7/10. Overall great job, but room for improvement.

The GTS reached 684/1782/1053 just for benching..
So this is the beast i've been trying to catch?? :D
Awesome job matey!

I assume the CPU load is 100%?
But idle vs. full load is 20 Celsius.
I am not very sure but in the past I played with P4 Prescott and the difference was 10-12 C....

load at 100% yes...i believe the idle-load difference is because of the 8800 in the loop...
Where is tank?
I don't see anyone......
Am I a blind????
