Pretty awesome, those noctuas must cost more than the mobo :).

Nearly :-P

I don't really like that new case. Are your temps any different?

I like the idea. most people with desktops dont take them around to many places, so to have an awesome feature like that at the expense of a permanent setup is a great idea.

Question on that rad BTW. Obviously 3 rads is going to be overkill for most situations but since most regular 360mm rads can go up to 80mm thickness like the Monstaas, I'm wondering how this box rad would compare to a single or dual 80mm rad  since it seems like it's just a metal frame with 3x 360 rads stuck to each other. Anyway, I like this build and it's certainly overkill. I'm not sure why you would need something like this -but- if you had a higher budget I'd love to see this done with multiple box rads and Haswell-E's because why not? :P

Amazing build! I have never seen a computer use a rad as big as that before. lol

It has the same number of cooling pipes as 4 x 360mm rads, it's not overkill as this system is totally silent due to the low fan rpms which was the idea...

If you want to see extreme wait until you see the mark 2...

Mounted the rad standoffs to a sheet of 10mm acrylic, and then attached heavy duty picture frame brackets to the acrylic and then hung it on the wall...

Why not mount that radiator on an AC unit? Just imagine how much overclocking you could do then. 6GHz here we come!

Why not, it's been proven time and again that there is no difference between push and pull performance even with NF-F12s.

Guy, the two ways you could mount the fans on the back would be absolutely pointless! The air would either be pulled though the radiator but get trapped since there would be no room to escape from, or the fans would be trying to pull air from the wall, think about these things before you bring them up.

Love the overkill. I have one of those fan controllers, found it on Ebay for about £5.00 and works perfectly.

 

Where do you go from here ?

Nothing to see here - move along.

Looks really nice but that is so much over kill it's silly. As an enthusiast - we all love overkill. (I run quad titans ffs) but you would achieve the same exact temperatures with 25% of the rad you have there.

Saving grace - you can add another 2 pcs in the future :P

What exactly did you do to get 5.3 GHz stable? Got 1 in my system right now with XSPC 560 With 16 Fans Modded. I want to know so don't worry i won't damage as the temps are very low on here. I need Exact Voltage and Ect from Bios. I have Sabertooth r2.0

Hi first off, when you overclocked a cpu the settings are custom to that particular setup, and my motherboard, so you will have to follow some guides and work your way upto the best OC you can get, there are no real short cuts sadly...

Second I had to water cool my VRM's because they got very hot!

PS I personally not had much success OC'ing on the Sabertooth with FX9590, might be down to power delivery?

Good luck and have fun!

Ah I had forgotten about that case... I approve of your use of it though.

VRM is also being chilled on here. But you can give me the exact OC settings and i can try on here. The mobo did have a update to address this. All i need is the settings then that's all.

My settings won't work, all that will happen is your system won't post or worse you damage something, I spent hours changing and tweaking settings to get it stable, I built a few systems now and I can't even copy the settings between same hardware, always different settings an tweaks! Have a go yourself and post your settings and results in the cpu & motherboard section in the forum and I or someone else will let you know other things you can try and get the most out of your OC.
