update: heb net deze mail gekregen van chip-con:

It does sound as if this is still not right.

Perhaps you can try this trick instead.

Take off the Coolinghead, and clean the top the mounting bracket and
the Coolinghead, to start on a fresh mount between the two.

Now put on the Coolinghead again without any Sealstring in between, and
do place a couple of extra spacers on each screw. Finally make a string
of sealsring by twisting to strings together into one, and then place
this around the GAP between the head and the bracket. Be sure it covers
the gap entirely, and then start the system up again. This should
guarantee proper thermal contact between the Core and the Coolinghead.

The noise you hear is due to insufficient load of the Cooling System,
when liquid comes back into a lttle pot inside the Compressor. This
Compressor has indirect suction, and therefore you do not need to worry
about any potential damage inside the Compressor. However the unevaporated
R134 that returns to this pot, obviously evaporates very quickly down
there, due to the extra heat, that is what generates this noise under
insufficient load.

This is also what makes me believe that your thermal contact is not
good enough.

I hope this clears your questions, and once again sorry for the slow
responce.

Looking forward to hearing from you again, with hopefully some better
Cooling results.

behulpzame mensen...

Allee, kzal mij woensdag kunnen amuseren ;)

zeker ons informeren ;-)

leuk wel iemand die alles al eens testdraait , weten we waar de mankementen zitten ;)

I have just received word that the prometheia unit has been shipped.

These guys are simply the best when it comes to keeping you informed or answering questions.

Danish blokes rule!

Let's hope UPS won't go on strike then!

poloke's prometeia is also been shipped today...so that makes two AMD's cooled by prometeia and two Intel cooled by prometeia in belgium, and gilles prometeia is also ont the way (and there is another belgian dude who ordered it, but I dunno who)

I'm just wondering: what if Colruyt (=belgian supermarket, always the cheapest in quality products ;) ) sold/replaced their refrigerators? Those professional stuff goes below -40°C in the freezer itself, so what would it be as a cooling unit?
In every store there are at least 10 of them, and they prolly need to be replaced once in a wile :)

Update: left the insulation out and instead of putting it between the cooling head and the bracket on the mobo, I just put it around the gap.
But, no improvement in the temps (maybe slight of 1-2°C, but not more)

So I'm dissapointed :(:(:(
Gues I'll have to go Intel to get negative idle temps...

Second drawback: My vidcard suddenly gave up on me :(
So I'm using a S3virge (4mb?) at the moment :(

so, if you haven't got negative temps, you aren't satisfied? :D
OPP runs his system at 2-10°C, whats the problem?

sorry to hear that, might be the extra voltage you added...

OPPs temps:

Mine:

Lesser volts and lesser speed...

was that on the eva?
