Puzzdre, if you can get this exact stepping than it will be great, other starting with J don't look that good, but still 2GHz on air is achievable with most tbred B's. For 65$ this is the best possible deal I ever made, and I got on the table waiting to be put in old 8kha+ mobo as soon as I made air cooled heatsink
g.i.amour , all lover speed (1700, 1800+) tbreds have unlocked L1 and L3 bridges so they are completly unlocked, other have L1 unlocked so up to 12.5 they are all unlocked, above on some kt400/nforce2 mobos, for other you have to connect last L3 bridge.

thx for the info morphling...

chked the local store.

they had all tbreds with axdadkt3c, with second line commencing with R

so i guess those were all tbreda's

will check in often.

big thanks goes out to overclockers.com for pointing us out to the real oc champs.

What you just wrote is ordering code, and this does not tell you how good the chip is
That second line is the stepping and if the first five letters end with B, that means it's a tbred B
Here is how ordering codes looks like on differnet cpus


and oh yeah stepping that start with R are usualy the worst overclockers

u must have some fine equipment at your disposition morphling. those tiny grooves seem impossible to make in copper without a cnc center that can be equiped with a rotatable circular saw.

can we expect an update review at xtremesystems?

Same equipment as before, non cnc desktop mill


Here it is, this will be my final design, I also got another 10 MHz stable out of my cpu. Update as soon as it gets a little colder

You need to post this sort of stuff on OCAU morph. Not all of us aussies want to come all the way over to these forums to look at your pretty blocks.

Ok, a friend and I are making a similar waterblock to yours and cathars. Its going to have 1,5mm base, 5mm high fins, 0,7mm wide fins, 0,4mm between the fins i think. Dual exitbarbs like the catharwaterblock and plexitop like yours with the nozzle (i dont remember the measurements of the nozzle but its going to be fairly close to cathars specifications). Do you think it will perform well?

Oh and I must say u rock with your tools

Should be very good, but also hard on the pump.

Can anyone guess what this is ?

If N8 is right, I'm VERY curious and restless to see how the Silverado will perform (not to mention look )

GO GO GO!!!

This was sent to me by one Jeweler/computer junkie who asked me if I can make him a block from silver. He also propose to pay me with same piece for me. Now who am I to argue with him
So this will become his block, and very shortly after I'll have my own version

Well, I'm a smoker/computer junkie, but I'm not sending you an ashtray (no point, I know )...

Now where are those two pieces of Uranium I had...Must have sold 'em already, wife had some troubles sleeping with me glowing in the dark...

Sorry for the jokes, but I just cannot believe...you make some really nice works of art (and performance)...and good news travel fast...this is something extra!...so don't keep us waiting too long, and get a bigger memory card for that digicam

Let us see that Silkyway block (both of them, ofcourse)!!!!

Sorry, I got carried away and forgot to ask what I wanted,

so, can you pls. give us the dimensions of the block, and if possible, weight (even crude kitchen scale weight)?

Thx!

Not sure I understand the cipher you're using, but I think that he already answered your question (?) a few posts ago...

Now, be honest morphling1... did that silver entice you because you think it's going to help your CPU, or because you thought that you could make your craftsmanship look even better than it already does?

Totaly honest, I'm only after performanse, my big ugly tower is under my table on the left near the wall, so my water cooling is totaly hidden, and never to be seen I always wonder how much difference exist between Cu an Ag, but I could only dream of trying that. I mean I know the the difference won't be huge but definetly should be there. So I'm basicaly just I lucky guy whos work got noticed. That man actualy contacted me few months ago wanting my previous block made out of silver, imagine that 12*80*60 silver stock, but I told him it's worth to wait because I'm working on something much better, with a lot less material to use
