Q56_Monster

What do you guys use in your lines so the water doesn't freeze?


I know Nate uses windshield washer fluid. Im sure anti freeze would also work as just an additive to the water.

So long as your keeping your parts cooling going sub zero isnt really necessary on the water. OCing performance isnt affected by temperature unless its way below 0c. 


Is windshield washing fluid safe for copper parts?  I assume since nate has a bunch of copper

Thanks Rudster!  I dumped some windshield fluid in my res and was able to "get it colder".

yea, but look at the crappy cpu score...woulda been 46k if physx would have kicked in.

i bet you this...you had a high cpu test 2...care to bet?

edit:
no bet...lmao!

i just went back and looked....oooooh....would have lost that bet...hahaha

Yea, that's what I mean.  That score was all gpu's.   physx doesn't crash anymore on me, but it still suc**!.

that physx test will make or break a run.  Good job Q!!!!  This run has nothing to do with the uber cold weather we have been having in the north east does it?? 

As far as precision goes, GPU's 1 & 3 will not show lower then 8°C.  GPU's 2 & 4 will go considerably lower (-teens).  Yes I use Prestone windsheild washer fluid,  Antifreeze slows down its flow considerably under the temps.

Sorry i wasn't around last night I was feeling a little under the weather and passed out early.

Of course it does...just look at the core and shader I was able to achieve by "getting it colder".  Thanks for the comments & precision tips.
