The Tek-9 Fat just arrived this morning .... absolutely beautiful (as expected)
4lbs of gpu-freezing awesomeness! I can't wait to get this thing strapped onto my Fermi :D
As always mounting hardware is all included and so easy to adapt to almost anything!

One thing I noticed mounting the Fatboy is that the square which contacts the core is a little more raised than the slims.
The first time I mounted there was a gap all the way around. Just use a thicker layer of eraser around the core, or do what I did and make a "gasket" of armaflex tape around the core on top of the eraser where the Tek will be, so it seals to the Tek insulation.

More pics mounted on the Fermi ;)
Yes the green hot glue is nasty looking, and there is more armaflex under the gaps in the back.
She's ready to rock, just need cold sauce now :D

1 layer of frost king?
On the pot I use painters tape, then armaflex, then frost king, then armaflex around the top, then armaflex "saddle" around the bottom and sides.
Splave
05-06-2010, 04:50 AM
awesome! so the frost king, I imagine you wrap it around and have the seem meet in the middle on the backside or on the side where you armaflex saddle to kinda tape it up?
PS you cant feel the weight in quality in pictures you have to hold one :shock:
Dentlord
05-06-2010, 05:02 AM
I cut a pattern with one big piece of frost king so there is only one joint, and where theree is no armaflex over it, I super glue the joint so its nice and sealed.
Super glue is friggin wonderful when insulating for sealing like that, another tip from Rom lol

When i saw it on the truck i said to myself holy crap. Now thats a Dewar. My wife just rolled her eyes. I actually had to make a loading dock for my porch so we could roll it in the house right off the truck. No way we were lifting that biotch. lol
I like to just sit and stare at its awesomeness.

Damn Chuchnit I feel for ya. I've had many of women in my life like that but got me a keeper this time. She lets me be myself and do the things I like, like overclock and game. Of course I still have to keep up with her and do the stuff she likes but that's a given.

That's cool. Overclocking is not to be spoken of in front of mine. Ask Kal, he's heard it with his own ears. It really puts a hamper on my hobby for sure.

Well tbh and fair, I wasn't into computers and never heard of overclocking till I met you, Kal, and Foamer. So its not like I was into this when she met me. Ok ok, enough about my drama. Lets see some more pics of these smexy teks. I'll have the 24/7 rig back up by weekend and have pics of mine to share too. :)
My wench used to hate my ps3.... but now I think she'd rather me sit on my ass in the living room and play that than overclock anything.
She gets mad when I tell her to fetch parts.... Or when I don't look up from what I'm doing to acknowledge her.... lol.

Is this your 1st time taking a GPU sub-zero? You know I still haven't myself. I was about to and about to go LN2 for the 1st time when I got the news of the soon to be dad thing last year and had to put everything on hold. Looking forward to your pics bro.

That's my problem too. I'm a full blown addict and there is no help. When its PC time, damnit it is PC time. lol

Damn right I blame this on you guys. I was just a "regular" addict and spectator until I met you guys.
Yes this is my first sub-zero VGA experience. Very excited actually. I just need to start buying ln2 often enough to start getting it cheaper. The baby is what caused me to get out of school and be broke right now. She is so worth it though. Starting to get fun now that she hit 1yr yesterday. :D

My wife doesn't particularly like the amount of time I spend on this crap and she certainly doesn't like being ignored, but she doesn't really mind me building/sawing/pounding/dremelling/soldering/freezing/fixing stuff.
What she hates are men sitting on their duff watching TV or playing video games all day. She likes having a husband who can DO stuff.
I'm just lucky I don't sleep much. I can get a good 2-5 hours a day in on this crap while everybody else is asleep.
