OK....so far so good. No leaks, no moisture. Still no thermometer on the chip though.

Software says 7c right now, and has been as low as 4c. I think I may be getting near the gelling point of the coolant because it went up 2-3 degrees....after I ran through 3dmark06 @ 4.5GHz/1.55v..............the 1055t wouldn't do that @ 1.6v. I just guessed that 1.55v might do it. I'm sure things will change.

I went from 3.4GHz to 4GHz to 4.5GHz...lol...I wonder if it will run IBT or anything really stressful. I'll keep you posted and get some pics up in just a few minutes.

Thanks a lot guys!! I am really happy with the results of the 2nd attempt.

This cold shit rules. No way could I run this chip @ 4.5Ghz before the chiller.

Pics added: The front(never took out the memory), the back, the eraser I removed because it was too thick, didn't stick to anything, and didn't seem to be doing anything to help matters, and the whole system in poor lighting. I'll get some better daylight pics tomorrow.

That's an insulation job good enough for ln2! I'm glad you have her worked out...

I wonder if anyone can get away with flowing the skin on that thick around a LGA socket...

Gotcha! I like that kind of stability better. If I can race...it's stable! Waiting for a download now making coffee.

I'm hoping to not have to remove the cpu for awhile or until I want to.

I always hated prime.

That's pretty thick...just be uber careful you don't let any flow into the cpu socket, it won't be pretty.

(Next time I would mask the edges of the cpu with tape before skinning if you are going that high with the level)

[ny_driver]

It's not quite that thick, I spread it up on the edges of the cpu. I filled in every possible air opening in that socket around the chip. I'm hoping it's good to go without regular removal. I'm too lazy for that, plus moving shit around is how leaks happen. I did all the skinning with cpu installed.

It's working perfect right now I don't want to touch it until I must install the thermometer probe.

[rickss69]

Heck, I would'nt tear it up for a temp probe anyway. Your bench will let you know how far you can take it...I seldom read temps unless pouring LN2.

(Btw, Jor-El has his cpu in as well when it flowed into his socket)

[ny_driver]

Yeah, but I'd really like to know the actual temperature of the block/IHS. It's not that hard to remove the block, I just don't want to mess with the cpu, cuz then I need more skin...or to learn how to use the eraser.

If my chiller bath is -33c, what do you estimate my quad core is running at?

[ny_driver]

My pump died because I was running it on 5v for hours. I'm such an idiot sometimes. Gotta get another pump tomorrow...going to get a 12v marine utility pump @ 200 gallons an hour from harbor freight for $40.

Computer crashed and it took a few minutes to realize why.....finally I got it running again @ default settings and then notice the cpu was @ 63c and the cores were @ ~85c in HWmonitor. It didn't want to run overclocked when it was hot.

Good Night

[ny_driver]

This pump I got is loud as hell, and doesn't work for shit. I have a quiet submersible one on the way now. Should be here this evening.

I admit I reduced the fittings out of necessity, but the hole that actually goes through the pump is smaller than my fittings. It's sucking water .........it sucks my finger up tight to the hose, but the water is just not getting out the other end through the waterblock I guess. It's only trickling out and it's supposed to be pumping up to 4 gallons a minute w/ 50psi.
Anyone know about pumps? I'm going to try a submersible fountain pump, although I am kind of skeptical about it.

The lowest my cpu went was 21c with this pump installed. It was running 4-5c with the other pump that was obviously doing a better job.


BTW...do you think the previously mentioned temps could have hurt my cpu if only for a couple minutes? I'll find out later I guess.
