Watercooling doesn't improve your perf...I hate how people think that watercooling by default makes your system faster... it doesn't. It's OC potential, and quite frankly the reserator has none. The reserator, in my opinoin, is a waste. You can get a solid capper heatsink/fan combo and turn the fan on low and it would cool better than that with the same amount of noise that the reserator's pump makes. If you're getting watercooling, make sure it's worth it as the reserator is over $250.
this video was added on 12 dec 2007, it is some time. I have already new CPU and RAM( E8400, OCZ 2x2GB) and offcourse 64bit win. Iam still waiting for another 8800GT and PSU.
Can you post some gameplay videos. I have a similar Pc and I am gonna upgrade to a 8800GT soon and my rig is exactly the same apart from the fact that I dual Boot Vista and XP, I have 2gb 1066 not 4gb 800, and My drivers are 169.21.
I posted video of crysis, I think that´s the only game that matters. I dont think there´s game that I cant play at maximum res. a details (for me 1680*1050)so I dont know if posting videos of games is important considering that there are a lot of game-videos on youtube. Maybe if I will run full ver of fraps i will post something.any idea?
Overclock your cpu, im getting 12500 on my setup, nearly the same as yours but my cpu e6420 is at 3.5ghz. Windows vista might be also lowering the score.
it is absolutly because of CPU but in games you cant see difference if CPU is on 2,4 or more. Ok maybe in crysis you can, but in any other you cant. But offcourse I will overclock it, just because of curiosity. I am only affraid if reserator can handl it. Right now temperatures are in norm, but after overclocking, CPU over 60C, no way. I think in that case I will think about air cooler on cpu and that water cooling for only GPU and in the future also for second GPU.
Well said, Like ive been trying to tell every one. Ok maybe he's getting more 3dmarks but if you look closely your SM3 score doesn't change and that is the score that is important
wow beautiful pc! you probably got somethin different now but i have same as in vid except ram and watercooling lol

Hahaha 32-bit windows can't handle more than 3.3gig so that 0.6 gig you got shouldn't be there,,,,

you also dont have windows vista 64 bit so you dont use all of your system ram because the cap is on in windows vista 32 bit.
