Memory heatsinks31 viewsThey look odd.

July heat in N. California106 viewsI think hot is an understatment.

Test run50 viewsI had let the CMOS clear for a few hours and I didn't have a monitor plugged in so the computer just sat in the BIOS. Although the RAM wasn't being stressed, it didn't get warm at all after a few minutes of idling. Hopefully that will carry over to usage at rated settings...

Top of the old heatsink64 viewsMan this thing sucks. Hopefully DFI will begin to use better HSF's in the future.

Wiring it up146 viewsLots of wires and crap to hook up. The 8-pin EPS power cable wasn't long enough to go on the right side of the motherboard, so I had to route it around the back of the expansion slots and tie it off to the chipset/MOSFET heatpipe.

Cooling installed68 viewsThe 7950 uses two heatpipes instead of one with the Go 7800. The Inspiron chassis blocks the left heatpipe, so I had to do some modifications to get it to fit...

Other side of stock cooler39 viewsI love shiny heatpipes :P.
On second thought, it looks like the floppy power connector wasn't in all the way. I didn't notice this until just now :D.

Dual fans145 viewsI put a second Noctua on the CPU heatsink to aid in overclocking. I used four zip ties to hold the back fan onto the front, it seems to be working quite well so far. I also put two CD spindle plastic washers between the heatsink block and the bracket to clamp down harder on the CPU.Feb 15, 2009

3.7 stable160 viewsIt took me a few days but I finally got to 3.7 GHz stable with the RAM running as close to DDR3-1600 speeds as I could. I might try for 3.8 sometime later.Feb 15, 2009
