Nice N New Shiney Lil Guy
Got a review unit in from CoolerExpress today (big thanks to them!). Single Stage, their new improved design for quad+ core chips. Also has their new clear acrylic mounting system supporting 1366, 1156 and everything else you would expect.
Any ideas what categories I should review the unit on? I was thinking: packaging/overall looks, ease of installation/manual instructions, and of course overclockabillity on 3 different platforms (775,1156,1366). Any other suggestions? Some quick n dirty pics... http://img682.imageshack.us/img682/2484/img6238f.jpg http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/9258/img6237v.jpg http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/4961/img6228c.jpg http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/2173/img6226t.jpg http://img708.imageshack.us/img708/9739/img6225a.jpg http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/5128/img6224x.jpg http://img688.imageshack.us/img688/1828/img6222x.jpg http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/4990/img6221r.jpg http://img682.imageshack.us/img682/2042/img6239p.jpg In the upcoming weeks they will be sending me a new concept unit for testing also, I will update you guys as I have more info. (I think it maybe a dual GPU cooling unit) |
Very cool of them. You got the specs on the internals used? Sdumper says they make units with top notch quality.
|
O.o
I wanna see the evap head mounting surface, it looks a bit banged up from that angle. Other than that, shazaam, it looks like a slick ass quality package. |
Yea I would be looking at a parts break down from condensor to evap to compressor and metering type
Load and idol temps at set parameters say 4 Ghz 4.5 Ghz 5 Ghz and max clocks I would also see what the amp draw and compressor temps are as well |

"Provide -44~-48 °C super and powerful power of the cooling effect and high load ability power reaches most depth cool-off effect. " I know its a 3/4 HP compressor... not too much other info. I have asked some general questions of that nature already today, so I am expecting an answer soon. Quote:

Thats a pretty nice looking unit there, very clean looking.

I have already asked them what type/model # of compressor they used and what they tuned the unit for. Quote:

Great suggestions I really appreciate it (rep'd!):good: |
This is a clean nice looking unit. Waiting to see what max. V and temps it can hold.
|
Maybe throw in an amd chip for that crowd.
Cant wait to read what you come up with! |

that is a pretty slick looking unit. Cant wait to see the review... A subjective opinion about noise would be nice (louder same as a in window AC unit?) Or something of that nature. I looked up sound level meters on google and even the $500 dolalr ones only go down as low as 30dB.. so not sure it would make a good investment. Anything under $500 (all the way down to $15) seems to be good for 40-120+dB Maybe there is something else I am missing but most fans says they are under 40dB, and those are not exactly quiet. |
How loud is the stock 5870? I can hear that lil bstrd 60ft away. More loud an anoying than my 10,000 btu A/C chiller just cause its higher pitch.

Hey Karma, what a fun review to write. I would like to see the vantage cpu test as one of the main test for load and deltas. Seems to be the hardest thing on ss to acomplish at faster speeds. Also would you be interested in publishing it on the wormhole as well? I would love to see it there too.:thumbsup:
|
What is the asking price for one of those?
Nvm...$900.00!:shock: |
With that short a suction line (?) on it they should just put mobo standoffs righ on the top f the case there :)
|
^lol!^

In for the results |
Currently holding my i7 950 @ 4700Mhz 1.4v.... literally the first boot... installing windoze now.... (edit: at -52°C)
Gonna do some LCC 32M |
how much power is it pulling from the wall?
|
about 350watts idle, i havent checked under a full 8 threaded load yet tho
|
More more more!
|
start up draw is ~450watts. it takes around one min to cooldown from 17-18°C too -52°C. going to be doing some more 32M today and some wprime a little late rto test how it handles bigger loads.

Pretty interesting little unit thanks for sharing results mate. My Cryo-Z takes 3-5min to reach -30oC on cold boot to start the PC up and then a couple more to reach -52oC so that is a pretty fast unit! |
I know this is useless with out pics, but i didnt bother screenshotting. Took 1 of 2 8700's out for a spin yesterday. at 1.4v I hit 5250Mhz (32M stable) and at 1.5v I got 5450 (32M stable). More voltage wasnt helping much, so I pray that when I freeze her she will go far :) SS was doing great holding around -50 to -52 at all times (these are very hot/leaky chips)
|
Hot and leaky seem to be the recipe for good clocks so good luck brudder :)
