I think you're still looking around the 1100 - 1300 dollar mark.

I get the feeling though that some time in the future sony may release a fully software emulation of the ps2 hardware for ps3. And then you won't need to get a 60gig. Thats just a bit of an eduated guess.

so its true you cant play ps2 games on a 40gb ps3 :rofl: i thought that sounded fishy but hey we are talking about sony

i got a feeling a chip is on the way letting u play copied/downloaded games as well as PS2 games...maybe more :yes:

query:

Q6600 @ 3.60 ghz (2.4 stock) G0 stepping model

2900xt (two-off) with coolermaster glacier-600 water cooling

thermaltake bigwater 735

70degrees core 0, 69 core 1, 67 core 2, 66 core 3

on full load

is that too hot?

bearing in mind the graphics cards idle at 49degrees

runs at 47-44deg on idle

pump - cpu - pcie - pcie - radiator - reservoir - pump

had a nth bridge water block as well, but not on atm

might have to refit it along with the double radiator - just that the extra radiator has to sit outside the case :)

Yeah man that is WAY too hot for a water cooling system. I would turn your voltage down a tad - but you may have to lower your fsb too. What voltage are you currently running? I would think around 3.8v, which is probably too hot. Your CPU won't have too longer life at that rate. 44 degrees is way too hot at idle too.

Should not even be that hot with a really good heatsink and fan.

Put more case fans in and get more air flow will cool it down heaps. I have 2 x intake and 2 x outlet fans, plus the CPU, VGA card and dual PSU fans. There is no such things as too much air movement. Is the fan working properly on your radiator? I think it may not be - that would be your problem.

yeah thought so

better rejig it and add the external double radiator/fan system (its a 745 system, but only setup the small single radiator)

:)

the 2900xt's used to see 100degrees on air (stock) on load, so the water has brought them down by 35degrees

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
