Incoming Cascade: Kr|pton

[Jor-El]

Hey guys,

Just wanna share my joy: finally I got a Cascade named Kr|pton (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krypton_%28planet%29)of course http://media.bigoo.ws/content/smile/character/character_27.gif (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krypton_%28planet%29)

Don't get me wrong I love LN2 but I always missed a Cascade because of the comfort and versatility before putting the hardware under Nitrogen.

It was tuned with a 8 cores/threads processor 300w+ - 101 to 105oC and has a pretty black powder-coated case with a monster evap length.

I will post pics and results when I get my hands on it (Friday), all I have are these from the builder (ruffus):

[Neuromancer]

Nice stuff :) Looks like Mr AND Grandpa El are both going frozen at the flip of a switch LOL

Nah it's for pre-testing new intel cpu's before Ln2, for AMD's, old vid cards 3d benches on a W3540 @5300mhz -
I wanna continue the gold cup collection on the bot. :thumbsup:

Rom, ruffus first advertised it for 2k because it cost him $1600 in parts (the case + powder coat alone was $400). The original buyer backed out so he did had to take a big loss in the end . The Canada - USA freight shipping doesn't help either.

[Buckeye]

Hey that looks pretty sweet Jor !!

[Kal-EL]

Ruffus does it again :)

Unfortunately the Romulan Empire assigned me to Tucson as a liason for Earth's assimilation. Things are not goin well, earthlings are dumb, and all they care about is reality tv. wtf:shock:

It's sitting in the garage since Tuesday, will run some tests this weekend :thumbsup:

[Kal-EL]

It looks even bigger with the angle these photos are taken. Looks the same size as your bike and mini-cooper thing.

How are teh temps?

Hey Kal,

Well I took shots trying to get some reference points around because I was shocked when I received the crate I was thinking UPS mistaken my Cascade with a Poney! The pics in the begging of the thread does not make justice to the size of this thing, the radiator itself is bigger then my car's radiator...

It's supposed to hold 8 cores / 310-350w / -105-108oC

Well see how it does.

[Kal-EL]

We shall see :) Can't wait to see those number poppin :D

[ocgmj]

Sweet looking unit Jor, Big congrats man :)

[Assassin48]

That's a karmaghia kal LOL!

[Patch]

Very very nice. More cascade jealousy is welling up within me.......

Your garage is too clean. Makes me uncomfortable. Can't let my wife see those pics.

I'm gonna have to start keeping my eye out for a cascade.....

[Hondacity]

omg that is huge!!! :D

nice ice machine

[Jor-El]

Thank you all for the comments! I will post results soon.



That's a karmaghia kal LOL!


No! Lol it's an original Austin Healey! (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austin-Healey)

[RomDominance]

Monitoring subspace for results, GL bud!

Agreed! This thing is great! :thumbsup:

[Jor-El]

All tests had 90 to 101oC measured on the IHC probe I placed. Cascade Never dropped below 94oC (wPrime1024 and PCM5 CPU tests) depending on how many cores where on...

I had fun tweaking things up and still need to catch up with RomDom about the P55. PCM5 Global Gold Cup will need a better card then this week Lightning and Ln2 too.

This Clarkbar is ready for -190oC Ln2 as I know these will scale with cold and not volts.
