3/8ths coolant line works.

My 3.4 intel 650 runs at 4.1 but my motherboard is a flaky POS. Can't wait for the boards with the Nvidia 590 chipset to come out so I can upgrade to a core two duo (gotta love the half price deal I get for working there) and start using both 7800GTXs again...

Thanks Kevin, what do you use to tight the hose together, my factory clamp wont fix my new hose ( good year 3/8 from autozone ), then I bought some clamp that you use flat head screw to tight it, is that ok ?

BTW I dint knew you knewing alot about pc :wink: . Are you using 7800gtx right now, or plan to get it ? I rather wait for new ATI video.

Yup, those clamps are what I use.

I've had two 7800GTXs for a year now, since around the time they first came out. Nvidia and ATI always swap back and forth for the lead, so in an effort to simplify things I decided to just stick with one brand and ride the waves. I chose Nvidia, they have always done very well for me, the drivers work well, they overclock well in my experience, etc. I don't know as much about PCs as I do cars, but it's my winter hobby. It's time for an upgrade soon, but the current setup is an Asus P5N320SLI (50% of them are flaky POSs, of course I got one of those), 2 gigs corsair 6400, the aforementioned Intel 650 (free from work), WD Raptor for the OS (2 more 250gb IDEs internal and an 80g external), 1000W PC Power & Cooling power supply, etc. This rig is a year old now, I've been waiting for a better MB to come out, and I'm still waiting. I like to stick to Asus MBs, and there is a second edition of my board, but it's not worth the upgrade since it's still Nforce4, and Nforce590 is coming out soon. :) It's a money/time pit, just like the car...

It cheap then car LOL. I alway love Nvidia, but Im still stuck with AGP so ATI made the last best AGP video car ( X850XT PLATIUM 256 MB ). I did build my brother top of the line Duo core pc, I dont think that great either, A single agp video car still out run a single new pci E video card( they why they need 2 video car ), 2 video car together is not that great, but I think all the company just want making money, that why they came out due core or PCI-E video car. But because of these game, gothic 3 and Crysis, I have no choice but to update, check out these screenshot. That make me want to build another pc bad. ( yes pc is money pit too, but at least you dump money every year not every day like our dsm is :wink: )

Gothic 3

I have to disagree. The single 7800GTX I run destroys every AGP car I ever ran. I haven't bought any new games in at least a year, so I'm a bit behind, but I can max out FEAR and still get excellent frame rates on a single card. A friend of mine with the same setup is able to run both cards (got a "good" MB) and also maxes out FEAR, but is able to do it at max resolution where I'm at 1024. Two cards definitely increase performance. :) I have to assume most poeple are CPU limited though with two cards, which doesn't give as much of an advantage aside from doubling the video memory.

You right, also check this list out ATI is still over NVIDIA, but both is good in mind mine, ATI and NVIDIA is alway have war, im kinda tire of it, so I just like you, stick with one brand.

Fear graphic already out of date, if you want see how much your pc can push, Elder Scrolls 4 Oblivion is the game to test.

That game is very very long game, like you cant finish the game, there alot mod of it ( that one thing I love about pc game, that people can mod stuff ). My # 1 recomment game is Guild Wars, you gonna love it, you can meet people online, no monthly fee, so it mean you can come back any time, there alway people online to help you on quest. GET IT :wink: . Half life 2, and it come with # online FPS Counter Strike Source.

Last time I played a game online a 15 year old pole smoker from canada tried to e-bang me. I'm still a little traumatized by that...
