FSB

9700 Pro (core/mem)
Stock Coolers 227 364/331
WaterChill 7V 231 392/351
WaterChill 12V 231 392/351

The max overclock with the stock coolers was 3632MHz for the CPU and 364/331 for the 9700 Pro. Using the WaterChill at 7V allowed us to overclock the CPU to 3696MHz and the video card to 392/351. The CPU overclock compared to the stock cooler might not seem that great but this can vary from system to system. Our CPU is not the greatest overclocker to begin with and may just be maxing out for this temperature range. The video card results are staggering. It is amazing to see how much the WaterChill cooled the card because it even allowed us to gain another 20MHz on the memory and 28MHz on the core. We were not able to overclock higher with 12V operation but this was expected for the small gain in temperature.

The temperature differences compared to the overclocks with the stock coolers is very significant. The most interesting fact is that the WaterChill on the overclocked system had better temperatures than the stock coolers at stock speeds.
