Yup, I am gettin myself one of those soon. But I am gunna get the whole deal where it is built into the case instead of the attachment. I plan to get it after i get my amd64 3400. That is coming up soon.
Anyways, cant wait to see more pix. Good job man.

Nice Perc!!!
You're gonna be unstopable now, not to mention uncatchable.
If you get too far ahead, I might really have to do the "EE"...
Later....

Sorry perc should have made it more clear.
http://www.chip-con.com/index.php?pageid=102
I am either going to get that, or the new version in a few months. But when I was talkin about the full case thing,i should have been more clear, there is a place around me that mods cases just for these kinds of systems. I will try and get some pictures somtimes. The reason I want a modded case for the cooling system is because I dont want it to be attached to my case. I want it in the bottom of it, but hidden. I cant explain it well, I am sorry. I iwll get some pictures and expain it better somtime soon.
Anyways ya I am gunna get pretty much the same thing as you it looks like, well off 2 bed.
Peace all

Yeah, well, i was just saying, a few ausfx members have 3gh/z cpu's, (to northys intel) so that isnt 2 special, 3gh/z amd tho, that will own all.

Its the same method as vapochill aint it? And halofanman, perc knows more than anyone here about this, i think u should listen to him. Northy didnt u have watercooling at one stage? I think he would know well what levels watercooling can do. I think we all realise water freezes at 0, u dont wanta throw ice at the cpu. Dont try and argue halofanman, especially when u have no clue. Flame me if you want, i got power behind my statement.

Welcome to the real world
|
http://www20.tomshardware.com/howto/20021230/chip_con-11.html
this is from the above
Our conclusive verdict: the Prometeia cooling kit provides the best cooling performance out of all the compressor systems that we've tested so far, offering an average cooling temperature of -35° Celsius. As opposed to its rivals, this manufacturer builds on a compressor from Danfoss, which boasts a power intake of approximately 200 Watts (exactly 207 Watts in the test). The barebones system can be used for cooling either an Intel Pentium 4 or an AMD Athlon XP; if required, a Pentium III can also be overclocked to the limit.
A significant advantage of the Prometeia is that almost all processors can be cooled with the help of the exchangeable CPU socket bracket. This even makes it possible to use the Chip-Con solution in the future to overclock an AMD Athlon 64 (Claw Hammer) or an Intel Pentium 4 (Prescott). The system would virtually grow with the components. This is the aspect that justifies paying the hefty price of just under $600. And anyway, you could give out the same amount of money for a complete PC system that's meant for novices, but without any expectations with regards to performance, of course. In practice, running the system did not turn up any shortcomings, and the cooling system proved to have a relatively low noise level when under a medium load.
The cooling tube was very sensitive to frequent bending pressure, which caused the built-in heating to fail during the test. The consequence of this was that condensation quickly built up. Therefore, the experimental user should be especially careful when looking for the best solution. If you handle it with the necessary expertise, then the Prometeia kit functions flawlessly.
This makes you wonder what the actual target group is. The compressor CPU cooler is not as suitable for the occasional overclocker who's not particularly interested in a high profile. It is equally difficult to imagine showing up at a LAN party with such a heavy bulk, unless you're a really ambitious do-it-yourselfer and install wheels on the PC (in addition to the viewing window and the cold-light tubes).
Ultimately, it's possible to get more significant gains in clock speed due to the extremely low temperatures. As a rule, we were able to achieve an increase of around 30%. This is true when using the top processor from Intel. According to our experience, the AMD Athlon XP typically offers less potential - however, we were still able to reach a maximum clock speed of 2835 MHz, and the system was able to run stably in 3DMark 2001 at 2755 MHz and 204 MHz FSB. If you base this on the fact that the Athlon XP 2800+ runs at 2025 MHz, then our results correspond to a model number of 3800.

Things seem to be getting a bit out of hand here Perc. Most of what you and I do, is lost around here. Either they don't understand, or don't care. I decided WTF, let them do their thing, and I'll do mine.
Just enjoy the rig when you get it running, and f**ck what others think...
Later....

What you do is lost on me. I have my PC, to play games, which i do a lot, and surf the internet.
I don't have anything against o/cing, etc, but i do think t's a bit sad, but whatever. To me it's like building a fast car, tweaking the engine, and then just washing it on your drive everyday, lol.
Anyways, you got anything new Farmer?

Perc, your being a wanker. The guy didn't deserve what you said to him, you were talking down to him. Your a nice guy, well most of the time, stop being a plonker. Say one more word and it will be my last? LOL your like a 10 year old. Ban him ban him, iam teh leetness!!!, lol. Most of you need to get off your high horses. Your just as bad as i was, if not worse. This place needs to go back the way it used to be, like when i was new, that was fun. You can't have any fun. Wait will i get banned for freedom of speech? Probly not Erock, he's better than that, i would put a my morgage on knowing who the tale tale wankers are, if i had a morgage.  gorv look man you dont know the hole story the kid was looking to start S**t with me he was online last night f**cking with me about not playing games.seems he thinks the only reason pcs exsist is to play games? im an ocer and dont play that many games and you know i dont like it when someone trys and put me down for it. i never never judge someone for what they use thier pc for and i dont expect other people to do it to me either. i dont know why he did it maybe hes jelious i dont know but ill be god dammed if im going to put up with it. i shouldnt have to. now had he not started crap with me the night before i never would of said anything to him about his remark i would of just said no its not water cooling its phasechange and that would of been it. anyways no ones getting banned you guys say what you want its your right but atleast show some respect cause i damm sure show you guys respect.... later perc, And after All that time of asking you why you didnt play games. You still havent given me an answer. Jebus. dont throw a temper Cause i asked you a few questions.
listen man, just drop it! what perc does on his pc is his business. You think u can act all inocent, meanwhile your on msn talking S**t behind every1's back? Yea thats right, I seen what u said about perc not playing games... If u had any real decent thoughts flowin in that brain of yours, u wouldn't have posted that BS just now; once again your trying to start S**t. Skidmark replied back with the best reply as to why perc's business on his pc is his to share if he wants to or not, so i'm not even gonna bother re-posting it in my own words... Now do us all a big favor and go back to the general section and post about your "saspentions" and all the other usless things u contribute to society...
Peace,

i reckon the prometiea is too expensive for its performance. watercooling is much more sensible. and by the way u can get much lower then a bit higher then ambient temp.

Ive always thought of some watercooling, cause i don;t like my PC loud, this Mobile has got me wanting more, but for some reason putting water near electrical components seem retarded to me, lol.

You can turn your fans off all the way? .Cool, mine just turns em down to 7v, have a Nexus.
WHat kind of case temps do you get???
I think mine's pretty good, according to my BIOS highest is 27C.
