ooooooooo recieved my first package from kayl today, a gpu tube

looks of high quality, very heavy!, the i think the copper/alum hybrid is the way to go, the copper section is real heavy, but the upper alum tubing is quite light but also thick,

i think there is a good 1-1.5cm copper section between the gpu plate and the inside of the tube, i think this will be great to handle high heat load of the 8800's and also stop ln2 swing alot..

i took a bit of brasso to the surface of the gpu plate and it came up a treat, i can see all the patches i missed shaving this morning in its mirrored surface

ill be mounting it up with a small amount of dice (or ill stay up all night benching) tuesday night and seeing how much it can improve my current 8800GTS clocks of 700/1025, im hoping for 870/1100 (not sure how much itll improve my memory clocking, but cold transfer to the board might give me some additional clocks)

awesome
like i said to you before i agree about this sort of design...it has many advantages

but it will be interesting to compare solid vs this design when you get your solid pot from Duniek (some time next year )

youngpro

for sure dude, im also going to take one of kayls new pots for a spin and see how they handle,

i know all my maxes for wprime and other benches on the current kayl pot, it will be interesting to see (especially for wprime) how much a more solid pot increases max benching speed for quads, although i wouldnt expect much more from dual cores

GPU pot or CPU pot?

also, doesnt brasso leave a residue?!?

youngpro

yeah mate, well you use brasso to clean it up, then i use pcb surface cleaner to clean it up, then arctic cleaning kit to bring it up really clean... then apply ceramique and mount

tuchan

Jif also does wonders to anything like this.

hmm i use isoprophyl alcohol.. wonder if it does any good but oxidise the copper faster

gpu on dice, t minus 8 hours and counting!
