To monoblock or not to monoblock?

An old Realbench with my 7980XE @4.6

Attachment 78584

But since then, I tried the Direct Die without success, and will have to retest (poorly delivered the LM with the IHS)

And I wonder if I will have a gain with the IHS of Rockit or if I leave the original one
Maybe a temperature difference between the cores, weaker

Those temps I wouldn't be worried about as there good, what type of loop are you running and is that with the monoblocks?

Hi,
Not bad
I use blender and classroom demo files six loops which is about an hour real bench is such a pain it gets corrupt way too easily

Those temps are pretty good for such a high vcore, my old 7900x could do 4.7ghz at 1.21v it could hit 4.9ghz on similar volts to yours but my temps where always to high.

Hi,
That was before I started evening out the vid's if you noticed how far apart they were from each other
I still have some work to do cooling wise I'm only running distilled water and a little dawn dish soap now flushing out the rest of the ek cryocrap fuel left over in the rads...

This weekend I will hopefully get the rest of my parts new tubing Tygon laboratory tubing / water temp sensor..
Then I'll add some new fluid probably ac delco anti freeze 50-50 and cut that another 50% I believe it's clear.

Oops my bad I did indeed even out the vids on that screen shots run

Hi,
That's ice cold there buddy

I had a Koolance 390i with this test (now I have an Ek Velocity) waterblock for VRM and rad MORA 3

I wanted more gain on the difference of the colder core and the hottest
The temperatures are very good indeed

The der8auer Direct Die Frame has arrived at the local post office and might be able to get it in 1-2 days so soon I will begin testing and join the club...

My 7940X undelidded is hitting 100-105C in 4-5 cores if pushed so I am not doing any further testing before I delid.

I will try my luck with the Direct Die first and see whether I can get it to make proper contact. We'll see...if it does not work I will revert to using the IHS with the EK Velocity.....

I would also like to test the copper IHS from rockit with the monoblock but now that I have bought the Watercool VRM block and the Velocity I don't think it is worth it to spend more money on the copper IHS just to test the monoblock. I doubt it would perform better than the VRM + Velocity combo...I do like it's looks though.

@tistou77
Have you tried the Rockit copper IHS with the monoblock? If you do please let us know how it does....

Finished my build today. New ihs, got rid of the monoblock. Using velocity and seperate block for vrms. Running 8c lower in temp stressing at same settings. Although I re-did the de-lid with a tad more liquid metal. Either way, it looks much nicer and is running cooler. No complaints besides the silicone fitting for the tubing being a tad too small. So my new bends were difficult. Gonna re-do them at some point.

I do not have a monoblock (I do not like and a little less powerful it will seem)
And I do not have the Rockit IHS Copper, I was just wondering if it was worth it to take it

Oh I thought you had it....well the only reason for me to get this IHS then would be in order to save the monoblock for the looks of it.....

I could get for future use with the monoblock if I want to take the Velocity out but then again buying it from the US + shipping....is not worth it...

Hi,
You're the last person using a mono block

Good luck with the direct die mount.
