Thats incorrect, the condenser temperature(within operating  limits) has no effect on evaporation temperature.

You must remember that refrigeration is based on the liquid/evaporation cycle, whos properties are defined by the boiling point of the refrigerant, and the pressure differential at the point of evaporation.

The higher the differential, the greater the evaporation temperature will decrease. (get cold).

if you chill the condenser below the normal operating temperature you decrease the pressure needed for condensation, which decreases the mass flow of refrigerant thru the metering device.

Which yields less capacity, which in turn yields less cooling.

Again , I hope I explained that in an understandable way.

Rbieze just rolls in like a ninja, schools us, then bounces.  You need to stick around here more man ;) 

You roll like planetary alignments... very rare, but always significant. 

+1 You (Rbieze) obviously have a great wealth of knowledge about refridgerant that would be a very nice contribution to this thread.
 
 
 
Is there a program similar to Gigabyte EasyTune6 for DFI? Basically i want control of voltage in windows.
 
 
 
@Nate: What do you think the best design for a DICE pot is?

Thats because I'm currently in school for HVAC, and so far I'm getting an A+ in my refrigeration class.
Looking forward to a career as a refrigeration engineer.



Lately all I dream about is designing refrigeration systems, then when I wake up I pee icicles and fart frost...

Getting on a plane to go home for the Labor Day weekend.  Finally get to see my little girl! ...maybe knock out a few waterblocks too?

HA! yea right, my wife would take a sledge to my mill if I so much as touch it this weekend.  Hope you guys spend some good quality time with your  families!!

Dam thats nice.....and neat ....what sort of temps you get out of that??

Very nice bigrelly.

I'm also a big fan of using the PLC temp controllers on chillers, really ads some flexibility for usage.

Show us some internals thwacking shots please

it was 4 am when I wrote that... cut me some slack.  I tried for an hour in the airport terminal to correct it, but the pictures bigrelly posted (VERY sexy btw now that I can see them) kept making my phone crash. 

Sooo happy to finally get to hold my little one!

Thanks guys ill get some more pics up soon of the guts.....

Nothing like sucking down a couple of VB's.  That is Victory Bitter.
 
Spent a year working in Perth, Penrith, Melborne, and Sydney.
 
Working for the largest glass manufacturer in the world!

Sweet Bigrelly.....

Big relly that looks amazing. What do you have it tuned for? Why did you choose such a small condenser coil for such a beast of a chiller. I cant see that coil being able to dump much more than 100 watts or so.

Cool, that makes alot of sense. I wish I had someone with your paint skills around me.

why are are points like that in the most active teams section when we went on a 400 point run last month, I guess it dosent really matter but it bothers me

I know I have been out of touch for a while, but what are the differences between the center fans, and the external exhaust 460's?  I get scared when I see those center fan ones because the sandwich 295's were better (for overclocking voltage) then the single boards with the center fans.  There is a sale at Microcenter, and I am not terribly far from one off post here.

The only difference is the cooling, and the ones with the "center fan" cool better. The stock cooling really sucked, so Evga and other companies decided to use a non reference cooler right out of the gate. I dont know if there are any non reference GTX 460s out there right now, so I dont think there is anything to worry about.

Also, dont bother with the 768MB version.

EDIT:

On another note Nate, you wont be able to find Medal of Honor on your base, they banned it from being sold at Post Exchanges because you can play as the the Taliban

@jon from other post fit better here.

i have yet to do hard volt mod yet and seem to be doing ok.
it's more of a trial and error and patience sort of thing, but im sure you'll find your place in it all.
and mobiles are where it's at for trophies...:)

Yea you do all right for your self however, 2 new cars and a endless money hole my bank calls an escro account really  puts computer parts on the back burner for now So that leaves me benching what I got and I have a feeling im not hitting 6ghz without a few mods ya know.
