Chiller    EXC-800 Portable 800W Recirculating Liquid Chiller
 
$1,699.99 EXC-800 Portable 800W Recirculating Liquid Chiller   Part No.  EXC-800
Koolance's EXC-800 is a portable recirculating liquid chiller rated at 800W, or 2730 BTU/hr (@25°C liquid & ambient). Chiller control is based on one of four configurable temperature set-points, including the option to lock liquid to ambient for avoiding condensation or to an external K-type thermocouple sensor (not included).
Along with temperature and set-point, EXC-800 can report internal coolant flow rate, pump RPM, and condenser fan RPM on a customizable 2-line OLED display. An adjustable relay trigger output on the rear of the unit is available based on temperature.

• Cooling capacity: 800W (2730BTU/hr) @ 25°C liquid/ambient
• Temperature options: liquid set-point (1 to 50°C), external thermocouple set-point (1 to 149°C), liquid and ambient delta-T (-50 to 50°C), external thermocouple and ambient delta-T (-50 to 50°C); toggle °C/°F
• Pump: 10 manual levels, up to 11LPM (2.9 GPM)
• Select only values you want displayed on the front 2-line OLED display (fixed or rotating)
• Show pump impeller speed in RPM
• Show coolant flow rate in LPM/GPM
• Show condenser fan speed in RPM
• Adjust audio alarm based on temperature
• Relay trigger can be configured as NO or NC and adjusted based on temperature
• Refrigerant: R-134a
• Power input: 120VAC, 60Hz
• Maximum power consumption @ ambient (approximate): 450W @ 25°C, 650W @ 35°C
• Designed for an operational temperature range of 0-40°C (ambient and liquid)
• Reservoir capacity: 3 liters
• G 1/4 BSPP threads on back for fittingsNOTE: Requires 120VAC, 60Hz input power. Keep unit upright at all times, and for at least 24 hours before applying power to ensure sufficient oil reaches the compressor.

  $89.99 Koolance 702 Liquid Coolant, High-Performance, UV Blue, 5000ml (169 fl oz)   Part No.  LIQ-702BU-05L
  Koolance 702 series coolant is used by many industries requiring a high performance, low-toxicity, reliable coolant with corrosion and biological inhibitors. A high quality coolant is extremely important for addressing dissimilar metals and biologic growth (bacterial and algae) long-term. Koolance liquids will not clog components and can typically be used for 2-3 years before replacement is recommended.This container includes 5 liters (169 fl oz) of prediluted coolant. It's recommended to replace the coolant at least every 2-3 years, or immediately if there is any change in color or clarity.
  The freezing point is -15°C (5°F). This coolant has been tested with the following materials:
  
  • Metals: copper, brass, aluminum, stainless steel, nickel, steel, gold, lead
  • Plastics: ABS, PA66, PBT, PE, PEI, PES, PETG, PMMA, POM, PP, PPE, PPO, PPS, PTFE, PU, PVC
  • Rubber: EPDM
  NOTE: Not recommended for polycarbonate plastics or other PC-based plastics.

What if you use a phase change cooler, LN2 pot, or dry ice pot? Why do you include the HC block as part of your posting requirement? What about an EK block? Allowed?

Asinine.

It says water, chiller, or sub zero cooling so LN2 or dry ice pot would be acceptable i would think. As far as Hydro Copper its the only one available for the 2080ti Kingpin other then using a universal gpu cooler with brackets but wasn't worth the last word being put into your post. You should edit that and remove it just for civility of the thread in my opinion.

With great setup comes greats results! This is awesome @bcavnaugh congrats 
 
I'm curious about the vcore, power limit, power consumption and temperatures though  
 
Are you using a custom kingpin bios provided by the master himself? 
 
But maybe kingpin himself made you sworn an oath to secrecy? :D
 
Thanks for sharing this with us ;)

So far I can go down to 3°C on the Water Temperature before I start to see moisture starting to form on the Fittings.
This keeps the card at 20°C or lower for most sensors but Mem1 and that runs at about 24°C
Still using the LN2 Bios on the OC Bios and LL @ 0 with Auto Voltage and the Memory just under 1.5000
I am not using the XOC Bios and most likely never will, but it would be nice to see a new Bios for Cards that have the EVGA Hydro Copper Water Block with the OLED installed. I am using the OLED for everything I am doing with this card to have nothing else running in the background.

I'm not familiar with kingpin cards sorry :D I wish i'll be able to get one in the future :D
 
Is this LN2 bios provided with the retail card (using a bios switch on the card itself)?
 
If so, what's the voltage and power limit you're getting at full load (a GPUZ screenshot would be nice)? :D
 
I know that for 1080ti max retail bios vcore is 1.093, the XOC bios let you go to 1.2V. So i'm wondering what does this "LN2" bios allow you to reach and if kinpin provides custom bios that allow to bypass any limits :D 
 
At 20°C full load your card is screaming for more vcore :D But i understand if you dont want to break it seeing how much it costs :D
 
Would be nice to know EVGA position on warranty on max vcore allowed on custom watercooled kingpin cards too ;) 

Yes on the LN2 Bios, some put it on the OC or even the Normal Bios to get full fan usage but keep the safety in place.
The XOC or the kinpin custom bios that allow to bypass any limits not planning on using it.
So far the Highest I have seen in the last 30 hours was 490 Watt Peek on the OLED.

@dwexpress thanks for the link, i had it in my favorites already but forgot it was there 
 
Regular bios are limited to 360W if the article is correct:
 

 
But the thing we cannot see there and which is the most important for people using watercooling is what are the voltages used to reach 2250 mhz :)
 
@bcavnaugh this is from the xDevs 2080ti article:
 

In 24/7 daily overclocking using stock Hybrid or full-cover HydroCopper waterblock general suggestion is to leave GPU voltage alone and ensure good airflow in chassis to provide lowest possible GPU temperatures. Only if your cooling methods allow to keep load temperatures below +35…+25 °C you may need to think about voltages. GPU voltage starvation can be detected when GPU temperature under full load reduced 10-20 °C, but stable frequency is not increased and card still crashing.

 

 
With a 20°C load temperature you should be able to reach 2200 Mhz, which suggest your GPU is "voltage starved" as described above 
 
If you look in GPUZ in sensors tab you'll see that even with LN2 bios your GPU core voltage is probably limited to 1.093v.
 
You should definitively go for XOC bios and try to increase the GPU vcore a little bit more and you should be able to reach 2200 Mhz :)
 
At 20°C i dont think you're risking anything using something between 1.1 and 1.2v. Hell i even used 1.2v on my 1080ti at 40°C full load for testing without any problems 
 
If you're afraid of breaking your card i suggest you contact EVGA support and ask them if you're allowed to use 1.2V without voiding the warranty considering your setup

No the 360 watts is at the 100% power limit in PX1, if you go to max power limit of 144% with the slider you get to the 520 Watts. The XOC bios are not needed for the vcore or memory voltage increase, it can be done with the classified tool.

I just want to say how awesome it is to see what you guys are able to achieve. I am happy to have a place where folks can, for the most part, share their experiences and knowledge with us lowly peons without the childish negativity that is so rampant on the internet these days. While I know that I will never pull of the numbers you guys are I am glad I can live vicariously through you guys. :) Thank you for sharing your scores and methods. Who knows, you might even inspire someone else to get into sub ambient cooling and Overclocking.
