    chill a pelt

    The loop is cooling the TEC. The loop is a Phase change powered liquid chiller that keeps freezing solid. I will buy some antifreeze tonight and finish this. Then it is time to insulate my 780i

    chill a pelt

    I have seen that but I really wonder how well it will really cool a hot overvolted quad..

    chill a pelt

    Soooo I hit 14c without the pelt with %50 alchahol before it freezes in 4 minutes... Andddd I hit 8c with the pelt before it froze after 4 mins... I know it would hit sub zero if I could keep it from freezing... I am wondering if the pelt will even be neccesary after I stop the freezing...

    chill a pelt

    The problem is that to properly remove the heat from a TEC a you need a minimum of liquid if you are cooling a CPU. I have tried cooling TEC's with a heatsink and the temps get real bad under load because the heatsink cannot keep up. Maybe if someone tried a Zalaman...

    chill a pelt

    Well I am not all that impressed as of yet. The temps drop to 9c before the loop freezes I have pics I'll post later. I will try this using antifreeze and without the pelt also and see what results I get.

    chill a pelt

    Grr ran 3 mins and froze again... It is insane when water on the hot side of a pelt freezes solid... I am adding antifreeze tomorrow. As for now it is in the thaw... It may be ghetto but it is running so cold that I cannot keep it running. I also need to add a cold plate as the pelt is hella...

    chill a pelt

    Well I have bench tested this baby now and all seems well. I had to thaw it out for 3 hours before I could get the liquid loop to run again since I filled all voids with insulation and it seems the chill lasts for hours after shutting it down. *remember that liquid does not freeze at 0 if you...

    chill a pelt

    So I got this old drinking fountain with a refrigeration unit on top. I tore it down to the compressor and coils and am getting insane temps with it. *testing on a old pent 4@2.5 gig. I have one of the largest pelts available lying around and have always heard that the colder you can get the...

    780I BSOD Hardware loop and Voltage Sticky

    Aye I have read about others with the voltage problem and flashing the BIOS has not helped. Some swear upon a pencil mod that fixes it but I am still yet to find one for the XFX 780I tri SLI. I am just in fear that the BIOS Voltage suddenly reverts and instantly doses me with 5.6 volts while...

    780I BSOD Hardware loop and Voltage Sticky

    Well I just got rid of the looping by reinstalling etc etc *Again* after a full CMOS reset *Again* and adding massive V-Core. I am unsure why this issue has just now arrived at my doorstep but my V-Drop (Not droop) is unbelievable. Voltages are (1.4125v) actual V-core through BIOS compared to...

    780I BSOD Hardware loop and Voltage Sticky

    Good afternoon. I rescently purchased a XFX 780I 3 way SLI MB and a QX6850 Proc. Everything has been screaming right along and stable for 2 weeks now and stable under Prime and 2 sets of Memtest Simotaniously overnight rock solid! Last night I started getting Random BSOD's while playing...
