Biggest and best cooling

[thepizzaman]

ok so who has the biggest ang best cooling for their hardware?
whats the most 120mm fans you have stuffed into a case?
how is that watercooler?

Currently... theres.. 9 120mm fans, and a 200mm fan in my case. One of those is the Zalman 7900 cooler. Works well enough for me, though I'm sure theres more extreme out there.

 

[thepizzaman]

9?.........
how big is your case?

9?.........
how big is your case?

The Antec Twelve Hundred. Its a full size case. I have 8 Actual case fans(7 120s and a 200) the other two 120s are the PSU and the Zalman

 

[thepizzaman]

ah..... well in that case i have 8 total.......

I've got a total of 10 fans in my rig right now.

1 x 120mm Front Panel Intake
1 x 140mm Side Panel Intake
1 x 120mm CPU
1 x 120mm Rear Exhaust
2 x 120mm Top Exhaust
1 x 120mm PSU Intake (Airflow exhaust through rear)
3 x Memory Cooling Fans (Unknown size, 30mm or 40mm it looks like)

And as soon as I can manage it, I'll be adding another 120mm CPU fan to the other side of my Thermalright Ultra 120, as well as a 140mm intake on the bottom of my case. I may also add an 80mm fan into the slot on the opposite side of the motherboard, I had one in originally but it was WAY to loud for the "quite" build I'm going for.

Meh, If you spent the same amount on one card it would run just as well if not faster, but to each their own...

He bought 1 of them Ultras for £90, and the other two for £150, all at different times and all new. A guy on ebay was getting rid of some old stock, so was selling them for cheap. And my mate's parents also run a pub, so he gets VAT taken off, and considering most places sell/sold Ultras at £300-400 each...

The Ultra is still like the 4th/5th best single card you can get. 3rd if you take out the GX2 cards.
