try the 4870 on the SS ?? or if you try to use the SS ups messed up its not going to keep the 920 cool ?

also is that you in your avatar ? lol j/k

The SS UPS messed up is already back with runmc. After about 20-30min the compressor would be super hot and idle temps at stock 2.66ghz was -37c. I tried not to run it after it was obviously jacked up.

aww cant go read the whole thread im on my cell at work :D

but usp left mine outside when it was snowing and he even put on the box to keep the box upright the left it upside down

but mine gets hot if i dont have the ac on room would get in to the 80F+ but it kept my 920 at 1.6v i think it was @-42c

Very nice temps. Generally -35c on 300w load tester is ~-40c or better on i7.

Right on.... I hope he packs it with love and go-go juice :D

Git er dun homies

I'll be tuned in for results.

It's gonna be bolted to a plywood base like yours. :thumbsup:


All in all it sucks to receive a defective unit, but what can ya do about UPS. Runmc's communication and service has been top notch so far. That kinda makes it ok since I don't think any of this was his fault. He's a super nice guy and added a little extra spice for this replacement unit. As always though, I'm waiting to test it to come to my final conclusion. Based on the service and care he's given so far, as long as the unit arrives safe, I'm sure it'll perform just how I want. For the record, the replacement has taken a little bit, but I didn't wanna rush anything to make sure he had time to tune it right. -35c at 300w sounds about right too. :thumbsup:

all right :D hope ups doesnt do somthing like drop it out of the truck going 70mph

hope it gets there in working order so we can see some action

You don't want to see the pics of when it got back to him. :eek: It looked like they rolled that thing all the way to TX. :ohcrap:


I'll have my 24/7 rig back up next week, if you guys quit livestreaming, and will try and post some nice shots of the unit.

so it got back to him more messed up then how you got it wtf thats crazy

and yes i would like to see lol

Yes the box was beat all to hell and back when it got to him. Terrible I tell ya. Not sure on the condition of the unit though. He hasn't said anything. I boxed the internal box real nice so hopefully nothing bad. I'll upload the pics tomorrow, but be prepared for shock and awe thanks to what brown did for me. :laughing:

seems they ate it and pooped it out lol

It's here!!
 

Replacement unit arrived today. UPS sucks. Anyways, lemme show some pron off. :D

Well crap crap crap I just started using Flickr and can't figure out how to imbed the pics on here. Here is the link to my set. You can see the total garbage that UPS is plus the cute little guy that came in the box. ;)

sweet looking SS homie, can't wait to see it frosty.

Man you ain't the only one. I'm ready to be able to bench late at night.

You going to let it settle for 24 hours?

Ya, but when I asked him about the first one he gave me an interesting tid bit of info. He says there really isn't anyway for the oil to transport itself back into the compressor without refrigerant carrying it there. This is for a single stage only. Cascades have way more coils and places for the oil to get trapped and settle.

Here's what he told me to do. Start it on day one or 24hrs, whichever I want. Turn it on for 1-2 minutes. Let it sit for 30 minutes or more. Rinse and repeat while running it a touch longer each time. He said 5-6 cycles was perfect and would ensure the compressor won't burn up while getting any loose oil in the compressor. :thumbsup:

looks nice now i wish i had went with him :( it looks clean ill post a pic of mine see what you think ;)

Pics are good brother. Post away :good:

when i get home bro still working hard at work, that i have time to be on the phone lol

only thing i hate the hrs pay is okay pays the bills but wish i would win the lotto and buy everything to bench lmao

im going to tell my mom to bring her comp when she comes to visit, that i built for her to put it on the ss to get more gold on the onbord gpu and gpu lol

What the hell? You are sitting here trying to talk like mine is nice and clean. Look at you with that clean little rotary unit. If you didn't live in the US I would swear that was euro built. Those clean OCD type bends look like littledevil's work. Super nice SS you got man. What kinda temps did you say you're getting?

the lowest i seen it get is -42 on the evap temp running vantage at 1.688v on the 980x @ 5GHz

it idles -52 - -48 depends how long it been on and if the room starts to warm up lol

sweet ss temps on that beast, Dom... :ohcrap:

Yea man ... that little hot rod kicks some seriuous ass bro ................. :thumbsup:
