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

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

    • Nah, I think the current user name suits me pretty well
    • Ooo, quite aggressive! I hope there'll be a professional taking photos on the trackday that you can get. Should look great there!
    • I think a lot of you hit the real issue, these brands aren't making cars at a competitive price. Lucky that Foxxconnnn didn't buy Nissan otherwise the cars would be built by 13 year olds doing 15 hour shifts like iPhones. This reminds me of British Leyland. 5th largest global manufacturer in 1968, collapsed by 1975 with only a couple of brands escaping to be owned by Chinese brands today. Along they way they vacuumed up MG, Jaguar, Daimler, Rover, Land Rover, Austin, Morris, Wolseley, Mini, Triumph, Riley, Alvis,  Yes, they had other problems but the basic issue was the wrong production (and therefore retail) price. If you are a car manufacturer and you haven't noticed China coming, its already too late.

    • I can't help with the clearance question, I've always taken my machine shop's advice on that. It is worth considering that a shop that does that every day for road cars will be looking for as good as they can get off the shelf, not perfect. If you want more careful race style "blueprinting" then you need a race shop to measure/machine the engine. I do have an opinion on line boring the block though....don't do it unless you have to. The crank centre moves higher but the oil pump stays in the same place when you line bore the block.
