voodoothenoob Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 very simple install w/no issues other than i did not receive any manual other than quick start up guide which lacks an explanation on how to use the set button on the external unit. [COLOR=DarkOrange]How do I set so it will shut down machine if temps reach a certain limit?[/COLOR] anyway, performance is very silent unless in turbo mode, which then did not decrease temps at idle. my cpu is at 30.0 celsius. havent gamed with it yet but tried overclocking cpu more to no avail. on air w/zalman heatsink i overclocked to 3.6 and thats what i can attain w/water so i feel that the main benefit for me is silence. However the biggest issue I see is that no gpu cooling benefit is available at this time. this means my overclocked 9800 pro still requires side panel to remain off due to cooling. if side panel is put on, i can not achieve the desired overclocks as w/it off. so i hope they release gpu blocks soon :!: cause without it, I dont see a benefit (other than silence) over air cooled. will post in a couple hours to see how it performs while under load.

voodoothenoob Posted March 3, 2004 Author Share Posted March 3, 2004 1 hour under load of playing Americas Army and it reached 33.0 on normal. I like it but want a gpu option, otherwise it goes up for sale on ebay and i look for something else that has gpu cooling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees COOL GUY Posted March 3, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted March 3, 2004 The shut down alarm is automatically set to shut down at 55 C. The audio alarm is set to 50 c from the factory. A copy of the manual in .pdf format can be downloaded [URL=http://www.corsairmemory.com/corsair/products/specs/HydroCoolManualENGLISH.pdf]here[/URL].
