    Cheapest? Should be around RM600+...

    which is why malaysians should get only the water block and DIY the others... LOL :D

    Yeah, true. But the waterblock alone is quite expensive, $40-50, and that excludes shipping! You can probably setup a good system for RM400, but it's still over budget for most. That's why watercooling is not for everyone. :)

    According the current price list, CZone sells the Maze3 and Black Ice Pro radiator as a kit, for RM650! Insane...

    so pricey. i'll just stick to my HSF. very low noise + very low temperature. hehe........hot weather but never even exceed 45c even on full load.

    temp taken using temp probe. ;)

    You probably have to compensate +20C for inaccuracy, heat lost etc... :)

    wah i stick my probe on the CPU already u still want me to add 20c.

    then what about those reading from PC Alert and Asus PC Probe?

    howdy,
    sorry for the delay in responding.
    i find MBM5 TEMP's to br pretty consistant with one exception, when i start the computer in the morning the ambient air will be about 70f but the initial reading for the sensors will be 10f higher.
    where i find the odd stuff is voltages. the positive side seems pretty normal but the negative voltage readings are wrong by about 9 volts. right now they read like this

    • +3.3 = 3.25
      +5.00 = 5.05
      +12.00 = 12.16
      -12.00 = -3.37
      -5.00 = -0.79

    if these neg. voltages were this this far out i dont think the box would even operate.


    BTW i've been out of town for the last week and have not been able to get pictures .

    You can use Asus PCProbe to check your voltages. I noticed that MBM is not giving correct readings.

    howdy,
    check out this email i recieved

    i contacted AMD and explained truthfully what had happened and they told me that the one that had the burnt area would not be replaced but they gave me an RMA for the other one and yesterday i got this message.
    YEP AMD ROCKS.

    anyone interested in buying/trading for this proc PM me.

    M.R.
