I promise this week when this is done il finish the fish tank, its about 75% done.
 
when is the compition over? i think they should just end it now
 
lol yeah
 
Ok the comp has been running for 1 day (lol, a record)
I am using the Epox NPA+ Sli mobo
and 3 WD 160 s in Raid0

Last night i checked on the temps of the VC and noticed they were 57C. The tube was off.
So I started to check out how it worked.

No tube fans at max(Silverstone 110CFM,little noisey) Temp 57
Put on tube fans at min.(silent) Temp 47
Tube on Fans at max Temp 43C

Now I am using a CoolRad between the fans but if you didnt have the H2O this would work very nice.

Great results, you must be happy with the wind tunnel! Wow... now if you had an after market cooler on the card too, I wonder what the temps would be then?! (unless you do already, and in that case ignore this post :D )
 
Origionally I wanted to build a QUIET comp that was SLI but didnt need a huge PS or 10 fans.

That way everyone could do it.

I mean I would like 2 X1900's and a $200 ps and a $500 H2O but how many of us can get that for real?

These 7600GS cards are only 32 watts each, I think the X1800 and X1900 are 120watts and up EACH.
 
Crazy ideia: 2X 7300GS in SLI, passive cooling, it's good for those people who just wan't SLI, and don't want to spend money
 
hummm ive been away for a few days... just got my new dslr camera in... goin to alaska saturday.. gots to take some good pics... + i love photography... when i get back i hope to see some benchmarks of your comp, and how far you can oc on passive cooling with the wind tunnel!
 
Nice comp mark, really nice wiring in the back. Cannot wait to see the final, final pics.
