arctic Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 currently running the 200ex on my xp2500+ @ xp3200 with 1.85v and i'm getting around 43-45C idle and 50C load, does that seem too high ? or could it be air in my system ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stev Posted January 27, 2005 Share Posted January 27, 2005 arctic, When you applied the thermal-paste to the processor, did you apply ALL of the 0.35 grams? Spreading it too thin will result in higher temps. The Shin Etsu MicroSi G751 thermal-paste is highly recommended for the HC200 cold-block. This can be purchased from many places too.

Stev nope. i used arctic silver 3 and i always apply the same amount everytime - i.e a thin layer that's about half a mm thick. my ambient temps are around 25C, and when i run the xp2500+ at stock speeds @ 1.65v i get 38C idle. seems a bit high to me.. or is it ?

KaptCrunch Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 Arctic Burp the system really good again by having the rez out, an flip case so the rad with hoses to the ceiling an the pump lowest point an move all hardware different angles to move air pockets to the rez, all while just the pump running with cap open on rez, have friend hold it for you while u play roller maze with the bubbles. this is a Prerequisite for all liquid systems to remove air. REZ RAD WB PUMP your PG is to thick? not enough paste or hang up on the WB (i dropped 3c adding shim with paste covering whole cavitiy)non-conductive type) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stev Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 arctic, KaptCrunch's English seems to be difficult at times to understand. I'm not sure if English is his second language. Many sentence adverbs, limiters and other key parts of speach are missing most of the time. This has lead to confusion here on the forums. No offence to Mr. KaptCrunch at all. He provides a wealth of information, but communicating it tends to be his short fall. :sigh!: When I have posted things on a German web site forum, I usually run into this problem myself. :bigeyes: Stev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaptCrunch Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 ah crap i don't really get your directions.. got a diagram or something ? :confused: think of it this way, passed some gas in the pool what way do the bubbles float? verticialy up. You have a toy maze, flat on table now turn-up on its side the ball bearing being heavy goes to the bottom of maze Now the ball bearing becomes the bubble move each hardware anyway to move bubble to top starting with lowest point of system an work your way to the top BURP now how did that gas travel? no offence taken :laughing: but my wallet empty Stev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
