It worked! ( Sub ambient setup!)

[Lays]

Recently I made a topic showing my ghetto sub-ambient watercooling setup, and I figured I'd make a post showing some stuff & that it did work!

( It does look terrible but it works!!!)

 

I don't think it's working as well as it can, I'm going to be buying an LCD temperature sensor display thing, and putting the temp probe inside the duct to see if the air temperature is indeed as cold as it is outside.   I think I may need to insulate the duct, my room temperature may be heating up the duct which is in-turn heating up the air inside the duct.

 

 

I did some testing this morning when it was roughly 10c outside, load temps on GPU were roughly 23-26c varying throughout the night.

 

 

Sidenote: my GPU will do 1600 mhz @ below ~36c, below ~30c it will do 1610, and it seems below 27c it will do 1620 (although 1620 was really shaky, sometimes finished sometimes crash)   Maxwell does indeed scale with temperature, so anyone saying "you won't get a better OC if you're not hitting thermal limits" is an idiot

 

 

 

best score I managed to get:  1609 mhz on core 2223 mhz on memory and 4.8 on cpu 4.5 on cpu cache.  I'm gonna do more tonight :]

Thats a pretty good clock speed. Nice job!
