*Official* NBR Desktop Overclocker's Lounge [laptop owners welcome, too]

Fear not folks, if desktops go in the general neutered direction of laptops, then you'll still be able to get your water cooling mojo on with the future of water cooled gaming smart phones! ;-)

Just pre ordered my 2700 X. Why because I'm a Tech junkie

will be great to see what you can get out of the chip.

 

Anyone buy the i7-8086K anniversary rumours? Sounds like a pre-binned 8700K, with the turbo already sitting at 5.1 GHz. I'm sceptical to say the least, considering the news comes from Wccftech, and even if it didn't, TweakTown isn't always that credible either. Intel's upcoming 50th anniversary is pretty big though, so I'm sure they have something in store for us.

Mighty chip! Keep us posted.

 

Just got done helping out @Trafficante with his custom water loop. A lot of work but we got there, he did a great job when you guys get too see it, now all hard tubing. It needs a 24 hour run in to get the air out of the tubes, cavitation.

I felt bad making him wait until today to help out but I knew this was a multi hour job.

 

Does it work now?

And will the Apex work in that same configuration?

 

Just glad you are happy with it and hope you enjoy it in good health.

It does not leak anymore. As far as the configuration it is custom for his install and water cooing so I doubt Apex products will work as a bolt on.

Edit; I have to note the people he had originally do this installed the reservoir improperly and at least one fitting was tightened down with foreign matter (lint threads) on the O ring surface to the casing. They should have been taken out and shot.

 

Leak? Now you have me there. I thought it was to fix the over heating of his CPU.

 

He had redone the TIM and that cured that. He had two leaks at the Reservoir.

 

I really love the new bios from MSI, and I have not even installed it yet

Since it probably has the new AGESA, have you benchmarked it?

 

I was referring to the improved Windows 7 support

Ah, still though there should be a new AGESA and this by default could change memory timings, for better or worse.

 

Ive been looking over the support sites for Asus, and MSI on their new x470 boards, and it seems Asus wont support Windows 7 with drivers, or they have not uploaded them yet. MSI has Win 7 drivers already listed. If this is the case, and a board upgrade shows a performance boost, then I will go with MSI once again.

 

Check out THIS custom loop!

Looks like a P870TM.

I like it!...if it is for real...It is chinese soooo who knows?

 

The guy that did the new cooling system for him put some kind of garbage paste on it and did not do it correctly. I suggested that @Trafficante try repasting to see if that would help and lo and behold, that was the reason for the overheating problem. When he fixed that he noticed a leak from one of the reservoir fittings and a day or two later the other fitting started leaking. Tightening them did not stop the leak, so Brother @TANWare fixed things up for him.

 

Getting one next month.

 

Paste was the last thing i was thinking it was going to be. Glad that part was really that simple. Didn't really think you could mess that up with a water block considering how big they are and are usually 100% flat.

 

It was one of those wild guesses that couldn't hurt to check. I was surprised as well. Must have been some really junk thermal paste or he really botched the application. Or, maybe it was not tightened correctly and the water block was cocked up on one side and not making good contact with the CPU.

Dang! That looks really awesome. Too bad it won't work on the P870DM-G. I'd buy one in a heartbeat.

@Ted@HIDevolution and @Donald@HIDevolution should start selling those as an upgrade kit. I bet they would sell like hotcakes. @Prema and @Johnksss have you guys already seen that? @bloodhawk I am looking forward to seeing how it works.

 

Yes I'm interested in seeing this bad boy in action too!

I've seen some low quality laptop loops around the internet but never seen one of this quality.

I snagged the link from this thread...I don't want to take credit for finding it

http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/thermal-compound-test.814741/page-4

 

I did not see this!

@Mr. Fox

Nope, did not see it.

 

The only thing i dont like about that is the fact that it doesnt seem to have microfins over the die contact surface ... or at least i didnt see any.

 

How much is it?

 

Looks like between $100-$300 which means they might have them for different models.

 

I translated the page and it looks like they may have it available for only the CPU as well.

 

Yep that's probably the price difference then.

 

I know this is a desktop thread, but it does say laptop owners too. I finally managed to run this 7820HK at 4.9GHz in CB15, but cache only at 4.3GHz, and most certainly this is my last HK cpu, only K from now on.

That website is crazy slow. I tried to add it to cart and it was tripping out.

And my Chinese is not that good.

I was just getting ready to get another water chiller, but may just grab this instead. If i can figure out how to order it in English. I mean the logon pages.

 

water cooling or vapour chamber?

 

The CPU + GPU set is about $300 , then you gotta use your own Pump/Res loop.

 

$319.00 + $240.00 for pump + 9.57 for the fittings.


Does it ask you to sign up for an account?

 

Yeap gotta go through a lot of hoops to register and then order from Taobao. Or one of us can do a bulk order.

 

I just sent that link to a Chinese friend of mine to translate and figure it out..LOL I hope he is still fluent in it.

 

Yeah thats what i was planning on doing, until i found a tutorial on how to order from there.

But yeah if you can have him order 2, i can transfer over the funds to you.

 

That would be the plan!

 

trying to find 2666MHz or higher ram is difficult. I wonder if stock 2666MHz would do better than overclocking 2400MHz?

 

You got it. Smells like BS to me.

If they run at the same frequency and timings post-OC, it shouldn't matter what their stock ratings are.

 

@bloodhawk @Johnksss @Mr. Fox @Ted@HIDevolution and @Donald@HIDevolution

Don't waste your money and fall for that cheap knockoff!
The real thing (not made in China) is coming soon and it'll be a fully internal one piece P870xM solution (incl. pump), make use of all the available space and the best thing is...well that was already enough for me to break NDA just to save you from a huge disappointment...

EDIT: I have no monetary or alternative reasons to say this. It is actually a much better product.

 

I don't trust anything from that site. Enquiring minds want to know BS. The leaked overclocking 2700x review is BS also. I think it's a TMZ sort of site, trying to grab clicks, and headlines.

On another note, I have a 240mm radiator on it's way, a long with one of those "naut" thermal pastes, but any suggestions for the art work hanging off the back of my case now for 3 months? I could never find a way to route tubes that looked right.


Or this? Lol

 

Click the forum link (not the Wccftech link) in my post #2122 and just ask/quote the forum user. If it’s trustworthy or not, I can’t tell.

 

Thank you for pointing me to that post earlier! The reason I didn't comment on it is because the guy who posted it is a non-reputable new member. But what the heck, I'll ask for proof anyhow.

 

Damn, big thank you for the headsup!!

 

Wow, sounds like Intel might finally be going solder again! At least for the X-series.

https://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel...lake-X-Refresh-and-Cascade-Lake.299282.0.html

 

This is in anticipation of 7nm. I knew this had to happen, did not see it coming this early though. I am sure they are hoping on process to actually go beyond 5 GHz so they can stay on top by then as well.

I just got a Cyberpower 1500va UPS. glad to finally be protected as I already 2 times got hit by power outages since built. Overall under normal use everything just uses 190 watts. That is monitor 3440x1440, Klipsch sound, computer, USB 3.0 drive bay and USB 3.0 hub

 

Needs work...

 

yep, definitely. u suck at this, need some pointers? xD

The funny part is...That was all off of stock and just over clocked the cpu. Seems I have a lot to learn with this new platform.

 

wouldnt have expected anything else from you this is what a "quick n dirty" oc looks like, johnksss-style
