 great depending on use
ok first off this does fit 8800gt and other g92 cards, but a word of warning, the solid copper design with no direct cooling for memory means your vram''s cooling is gonna be whatever temp your gpu is at, this means if you have a hot gpu and vram that doesnt like heat (like my asus 8800gt1g qimonda mem) then your going to have to end up UNDERCLOCKING your graphics card to keep it stable. that said i''d give this block a 8/10 for cooling and a 10/10 for value for money. PS. removing fan does make this a single slot cooler. |

perfect up to a point
(Q6600B33.0ghz] -10*->45*c under prime 95) at and after 3ghz on q6600, there comes a problem, this peltier can only move a specific amount of heat, at factory spec it pretty much keeps it at -10*c the whole time, but when you start to oc it quickly becomes apparent how soon you reach the max exchange rate, at which point temps become even worse then if you kept stock cooler,(its basically insulating all heat past its max transfer rate, which means at load soon after 3+ghz, it starts to reach damaging temps) no joke. unless you have 20 free amps on your 12v and/or dont plan to oc much, OR you plan to use a cascade setup/ multi TEC setup, stay with liquid cooling or even just air, this thing requires insain power and time to rig (insulation/ lapping etc) and if you have light duty wires connected to it, they will litterally melt or combust and your cpu becomes in danger of blowing up. if electric bills are any concern of yours at all, forget about TEC all together. the idea has insain potential, just make sure you research and plan acordingly, and have cash to shell for electric bills.
P.S.
if you have a dual or single core, you''ll probably get much better results due to half or less heat wattage then a quad. |
