think its possible on air too hit 4ghz stable with a 6300 c2d?...ive got stable to 3.15ghz with stock cpu and stock northbridge coolers...plan on getting some good fans for christmas.... or should i take the risk and get water cooling?
I have not heard too many good things about thermaltake water cooling
but, xoxide has the same things for 130 if you want it
Personally, water cooling is a delicate thing
you can get a cheap water cooling kit, it won't improve temps much more than a good aircooler will
Which means for watercooling, you have to put a big investment in it
As for good companies, there is asetek, swiftech, and if you can afford but is quite nice, the coolit freezone
Check out xoxide, they have a large selection of kits (just find watercooling in the left panel and go to the kit section if you have not shopped there before)
Also I forgot to mention to you earlier in your other thread (that was you with the 1.7vcore right?) I doubt you will reach that speed because the ds3 probably can't handle that high of a fsb, though probably the rd600 could take you up to 4ghz
You would have to reach fsbs of almost 600 to get there on a 6300 (roughly 570 or so, I am guessing the fsb, so I am sry if the math is wrong)
A E6300 will be extremely difficult for 4Ghz, but for $40 more youll actually get a shot. Done on a Tuniq Tower 120.
Some other mammoth cooler.
Stay away from Thermalcrap or any other 'all-in-one' water cooler. With the right optimizations, a lot of tweaking and some ballz you can reach 4Ghz.[/b]
Problem is that he has a 6300, meaning that fsb of about 570 will have to be reached for 4ghz, unlike the 6400, which only requires fsb of 500 due to the higher multiplier
Though probably the tuniq tower could handle that speed, but I personally would be more comfortable with a nice asetek watercooling rig, possibly even phase cooling just to waste me money
check out the jump on it link in my sig if you want something that is even more funny, or watch russel peters comedy now on google videos, another halarious thing (he is a comedian)
Russel Peters came to UT once... fairl funny, but I'm not a big fan of stand up comedy...
Da Ali G show though... you got to see that...
And to the op... why bother OC'ing to 4 GHZ? Any real reason, or are you just trying for bragging rights, because if you're asking these kind of questions I'm not certain you should really try...
If you really want to go for it, one of the best kits out there is the Swiftech H20-220 Apex+...
the funniest is the moldytoaster videos on google video lolol..."i dont know if you guys know this or not but iam pretty much the best runescape player in the world"

or at least $400 on a homemade one
