GTZ i7 block
 

Techpowerup

I saw this but was afraid to post it after the thread I saw the other day, LOL.

i have that, or i bought the mount parts that turn my 775 to the 1366... its much cheaper if you already have a gtz, now im wondering why since i dont have an I7 lol worked well and good quality ;)

I have this block, and it is nice, performance is pretty decent. There are better blocks, but I use ALOT of swiftech stuff.

Well, when it comes to performance I'll defend the winner and the GTZ ain't it.

If you want one of the top two blocks you will look at the HK 3.0 or the kl-350 although I'm partial to the hk as it is the least restrictive and so is more versatile.

On one hand, look at that temps for 1.4 volts on a qx6850 @ 4ghz with the GTZ waterblock + pa120.3 & pa160 2 pump 2 gpu + chipset loop. :confused5: 73f 22c ambient outside. A/C running in office

On the other hand, picture setting 1.45v in the bios and getting 1.4 in windows then seeing a 1.35 drop off during the tail end of the run. :confused3:

Looks like some cool temps to me. Especially with a hot running Kentsfield.

Look at the Vcore in cpu-z numbjon, wtf is that shiznit?

Looks my full load temps on my xeon lol! In my xeon's defense though it was using just over 1.4v. Seriously though man I would find out what is wrong there as those temps suck balls for that piffling load.

btw if you want to show off temps under load you should try something a little more cpu intensive than wprime and then make it last a wee bit longer than 10 seconds...I like to see temps after an hour of being hard loaded as a minimum.

I think you better check ur eyes as those temps don't suck for the load. The temps are great for a kentsfield with 1.45volts set in bios and 1.4 in windows @ 4ghz.

It's o.k. man, I know ur gettin on in years.

What I see is 1.352v under load, mine ran at 1.408v under load. Who gives a crap if you set it for 120v in bios if it only runs at 1.352v under load. For the record I got better temps on my Q6600 under a light 10 second load than that too and that was at 1.54v under load...

I'm not telling you your block doesn't work dude but saying it's the best is pretty far fetched when it's so easy to prove the claim wrong.

BTW I would seriously do whatever mod is needed on that board to fix it's drop and droop, that is completely unaccaptable.

I'm not discussing best block bro, read it again. No where in this thread did I say it was the best block. The voltage dropped off to 1.35 at the end of the run. From the beginning it ran at 1.4 volts and dropped off to 1.35 during the last 25% of the run.

Post the screenshot of your better temps (what is this? 32c?), water configuration, ambient temps etc. at your 1.54 Vcore. Now your comparing and now its competition or just suck it up and admit its good temps.

Now it's time for the bad news bro, I think I dumped all ss info and such from back in the kentsfield days when I retired my Q6600 as the antique it had become over a year ago...I will have a look and see what I can dig up but I never checked temps after a 10 second run tbh as I figured if it would run the bench (all ten seconds of it) and get a ss the temps were irrelevant.

My reference to that block being called the best was to another thread and not specific to you Supes. I would still find out wtf is wrong with your setup though as those temps aren't good for what is essentially idle.
