140 cfm help XIGMATEK HDT-S1283 ?

[jaibot18]

hey i am looking at a XIGMATEK HDT-S1283 to overclock my q6600 g0. I was thinking of replacing the stock fan with something like this http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/de12trblhisp.html
i was wondering how much this would bring down my temps and if it would help me obtain a higher oc.
btw noise doesn't matter

 

[Evilonigiri]

That's hard to answer. My guess would be around 5C, but that really depends.

 

[jaibot18]

ok, that would definitely be worth it for me then. thanks a bunch.
any other suggestions for fans? a lot of those deltas look good, and so does a scythe ultra kraze

 

[Evilonigiri]

I think the Scythe Ultra Kraze would be better, unless you need more than 110cfm or whatever.

You're not gonna get this one? http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/de12tfexhisp.html

lol im actually tempted, however 30 watts? lol that seems like a bit much
do you know of anyone who has tried lapping this hsf?
i wonder what results they got

 

[jaibot18]

so has anyone ever tried lapping a XIGMATEK HDT-S1283?
it would be interesting

that is heat pipe you talk about, do you know how thin that wall is? one tiny crack, the heat pipe become useless.

Haha, I have no clue how thin the wall is but lapping heat pipes doesn't sound like a good idea regardless. Well...it is fairly cheap...screw it...lap that bad boy but make sure to post video of it so that we can see what happens when you lap through a heat pipe wall.

 

[bob8701]

the liquid inside the pipe is very little, so even you broken the pipe, the nake eye can not tell the different.

 

[Evilonigiri]

Well, I'm sure you can lap it just a little.

lol a faster fan would do pretty much nothing. when i change my S963's fan from low to high the temps stay the same! :lol:

(i like resurrecting googled threads )

 

[Silverion77]

This is a useless necro....wth?

 

[V3NOM]

he's saying a faster fan would be better, but with my fan going from slow to high yields no performance benefits so..

 

[Silverion77]

"(i like resurrecting googled threads ) "

This is also from March. there a real reason y u brought it up?

 

[V3NOM]

there is?

 

[jaibot18]

ffs why is my thread resurrected?
im so confused
and btw venom higher airflow does in fact help. my friend went from the stock fan to a 90 cfm fan and i believe it dropped his temps by about 3c's
