Hey all! This is Kev. I recently played around with some peltiers, vmods, and big heatsinks, and I got this:
It is a Prophet 4500 with a Volcano II heatsink and 50w peltier on it. It is fully insulated so condensation is not an issue. It has a Comp-U-nurse probe attached to for constant temp measurement. It is also V-modded. The bottom line is that after all of this modification, it runs at 202/202 core/mem perfectly stable. That is the highest Kyro II overclock I have ever seen. Anyhow, I got an SGI 1600SW as a gift ( www.sgi.com/flatpanel ). As much as I love this monitor, I need a video card with a DVI port to utilize the ultra high 1600x1024 resolution. Analog cards lose too much in the conversion to digital to work at that high res. Also, digital cards will look a bit sharper on this screen. So I need to sell my Kyro II. I'm not looking to make a big profit. Here's the cost breakdown for what I paid (I got nothing free for this project). Prophet 4500 - $110 Tedist TB-71-2.0-1.15 (Potted) Peltier - $26.40 AS Thermal Epoxy - $5 Comp-U-nurse - $16.95 Thermaltake Volcano II - $15 Solder - $.50 15k ohm resistor - $1.50 Adhesive foam x 2 - $2 If you add it all up, it comes out to $177.35. I'll sell the package for $175 + shipping, because I really need to get a digital video card. LMK if you want to trade also. The only things I would trade for would be a 1 for 1 trade for the Hercules GF2 Ultra card (w/ DVI), an ATI Radeon w/ DVI card + money for the Kyro, or a Hercules GF3 for the Kyro + money. I'll do paypal, checks, or MOs. LMK about the deal at kevin@procooling.com . Thx. -Kevin Oh btw... it idles between 12 and 14 degrees, and the article is coming soon...
