Musta been a blast thing weekend :D

Thanks guys ....

It was a blast and look forward to more gatherings in the future.

It is my hope to oneday have some Overclockaholics join in on the fun ....... ?

But it is cold ! here Kal ..... the beach is not a bad option .......:thumbsup:

Edit:

My bad, I forgot if you are not a member you can't see the pics ....

and some more pics

And some more yet

Looks like fun. Who was building the ss?

I believe the ole Witchdoctor has been tryin his hand at dark magic again :D

Voodoo magic.......


It was a combined effort. We all played a roll in it.

Then had some Dice action fun ..... what a great weekend

Shame Nueromancer could not make it, up he was not that far away

Not to be a pest but how bout some of the highlight benches from the day?

Holy shinizzle!!!!!! Droooool!!!! I want one!!!

Yeah maybe next time you guys get together I make the trip up :) Sounds like you guys had fun.

Nice Phase build there :)

You guys did a great job on that, nice and clean and looks like it should work just fine. Now for the tuning fun :)

Thanks again guys I appreciate the kind words

Yea next time Neuromancer ... you are so close.... But their will be more to come I am sure. I hope next time you can get in on the fun

Here ya go Kal...... gold with the 285 :wt:

Plus a logo concept :thumbsup: I call it (XS then the World)

Looks like a good time, Witch

You're gonna have to go into mass production now.
There's alot of us here that need one of those puppies.

I second that!!!!!

If it works real well I am sure there will be time to make them for everyone.

but we need to finish this and get it tuned up and see what type of preformance we get. This is a first time so we leaned a lot along the way.

And the good news is they go at cost + beer for teamates ..................:thumbsup:

Only catch is you have to help ....... :clapping:

Not a problem! Where you at anyways? I'm in the Big H.

? Where is the big H at ?

I am in PA .....

Houston

And that would be Houston Texas not Houston Pennsylvania lol :)

LMAO.... Good catch!:D

LOL .... we would have to build it in a truck stop in Kansas................:thumbsup:

Have a little update on our project. Unfortunatly I could not be there in person but all is well with me and Tom's first SS build and I am sure D will be thrilled. After having trouble charging it thinking we were out of refrigerant we now think a shrader valve may have been stuck ........ Rookie mistake and although I did this type of work for years I have been out of the field for many as well. but turnered out to be no biggy.
Any who we listened to a lot of advise from some of the best builders in the buisiness.
We started out with 11' of cap by recomendation. This proved tp be way out as superheat was through the roof. after cliping off 4' to make it 7 things started to look better and this SS was on the right track. At the end of the day the cap tub ended up being only 5.5' long so our initial length ended up being in left field. Me and Tom discussed this for some time on the phone tonight. All we can come up with that would have everyone so far off includuing ourselves is the Kale stepper evap has less restriction than the par for the course Chilly one that most are using. Logic being les restrictive evap need less metering length as it seemed the Compressor was starving to death. But being the first build this is hoever speculation. Mabee one of the veterans can exsplain better than I ... nuf said

Evap temp bare naked -72C

Evap idol -55C

Evap under 300 load tester -46C

Evap under 32M load -52

Evap under 1024 load - 49

I for one am thrilled with the results for the first one.
Time will tell once D has it and puts it through the ringer so there it is

Weekend with the bro's has come to it's logical conclusion with one woop ass SS

Pics as soon as I cann get them

I would like to thank Tom's HVAC dude for stepping in for me for the final charge as they are 3.5 hours away

It was a blast and next time the North East connection get's together we hope to be in the LN2 pouring section and I am hoping some more of my old and new team mates will join in the fun for the

North East Connection # 2 Bot destruction weekend

Looking sweet DOC! Where do you guys usually do the benching in PA. I'm not that far from you guys so I could swing by for some action.

probably about 30 minutes east of New York City so not to bad for Rochester

we have to get Spige down there as well .... maybe you guys can car pool ???

In the mean time I will trow together a portable rack as mine is a bit big to transport

I will keep you posted prolly mid to late Spring action ................

We can see how the Daawgs frequent fliey miles are racking up maybee .......LOL

Nuero only lives and Atlantic city so that is not to far either

wer could have some serious fun .............:thumbsup:

Yeah I will have 2 or 3 torture racks built by then LOL

(no SS/Cascades though :( )

Yes! definitely! :thumbsup:

Hey sounds like a plan guys .... we will have to make it happen

Don't sweat the details Neuro.... will can be slicin and dicin and pouring the LN2

Does any one have a container ..... ?

If not we can rent one if need be

I have no LN2 gear at the moment. I sold it all and went phase. :D

Roger that ... Gunner has the new rev 2 Koolance and D has a rev 1 and a Koolance GPU pot .... I will be getting Tek 6.6 very soon

Hopeing in time to be competetive for the tech station contest ....

so we have some pots to roll with

But you are good to go...... bottom line everyday of the week flip a switch for Sub Zero is hard to beat.

Me personally will never be with out one again as they make abusing 3D almost too easy ...... and do respectable at 2D , that is my single stager anyhow ......


I still want a pot for some 2D action though ......

I should have my 30L by then.

Another update from da Gunner on the SS

Looks like my dumb ass had a leak and now losing charge.

Simple enough fix and actually is the best case problem there could have been.

A bum compressor or contamination would have been worse ....

looks like I will have to brush up on my skillz a bit for the next one......

But it is in good hands as Gun is very thourough and will test this beast under exstreme circumstances before sending it out to D ..........

I feel pretty bad now that the hold up is all my fault but I did my best on it.

D will get a wicked SS as preliminary tests have this thing running colder than mine, maintaining it under load. I think this is where the 1.25 rotary comes into play...

I will post more results as they come in from gun ............

D = Dentlord?
