Revisited topic: WILL 1.42 COPPER HEATSINK FIT over DUAL 1.25?

Hi,
So, I have a power mac G4 MDD 2003 w/1.25 dual processors + 2MB cache/processor. Question: before I order for 56 dollars a copper heatsink, will it fit without any problems on the DP 1.25? I was told that the copper heatsink would provide better cooling to the processors compared to what I have now. Although, my two fans and slot fan are producing EXCELLENT results and no problems(even before all this, it never overheated), I wanted to cool my machine down even further.
Will the copper heatsink from the dual 1.42 fit on top of the dual 1.25 processor card? I looked at both the processors and heatsinks and they all look identical.
56 dollars from mac-pro.com for the copper heatsink is a BARGAIN! As well as for $245 a 1.42 processor, but I don't need an extra 10-13 percent increase. I am only after the processor.
Also, I am in the market for a nice not too expensive LCD monitor. I am running a Sony 19inch CRT and is very very nice, but HEAVY!! I want something comparible to the 19inch monitor that I have.
What LCD screens or cinema displays would someone recommend for me? I have DVI and ADC. Without knowing really the difference in performance between the ADC and DVI, should I go DVI?
I am not looking for a 30 inch or any fancy-shmancy either. Just a nice comparible/replacement to get rid of this 19 inch WEIGHT off my desk!
Thanks, and happy holidays!

Well, I placed the dual 1,42 copper heatsink into my dual 1,25 mdd 1mb L3 per CPU. I don't think 2mb L3 per CPU would make any difference. I really don't know about the terminal pipe of the heatsink, not sure about any coolant inside it, what I can say the CPU temp dropped significantly when I swapped the original aluminium heatsink with the copper one. I also own a dual 1,42 and the temp is about 5 degrees (C°) higher than the dual 1,25 "coppered". BTW I added more fans (now my Mac's got 9 inside)
and modded the AppleFan.kext, in order to startup the lower big fan at a lower temp. The Machine with full CPU usage doesn't reach 54 (C°) during winter and 59 during hot summer.

  • Copper heatsinks for dual 1.25

    I have three dual 1.25 MDD's I am going to upclock to 1.5. This speed seems pretty stable by most reports though more cooling will be needed particularly after the vid card is also upgraded. Some think the level three cache is really the catch for higher speeds but I will have to increase cooling anyway if I pop some 7800/s in them. Problem is that the dual 1.4 coper heatsink is commanding anywhere from
    80 to 100 + bucks. Does anyone know a cheaper source for a couple of these puppies then what ebay has available? I had found one link where a guy had used a nice pc copper heatsink and, while a shim had to be fabricated, still got it in with the case shutting and got nice cool temps out of his overclock. I can't find that stupid link now though. Does anyone remember where it is?

    Hi-
    How about water cooling?

    BTW, a thin finned Aluminum heatsink cools pretty much as well as the Copper heatsink.
    It's the thick finned Al heatsink that is the bummer.

  • Will the iPhone 5 cases fit the iPod Touch 5?

    Will an iPhone 5 case fit the iPod Touch 5?

    Yes, Actually it fit really well and the dimension difference is technical not physical so the iPhone case hugs the iPod comfortably and there is not rattle or movement whatsoever.
    I " don't think so" like others.. I've done this and own one!

  • Simplified Chinese in RH9 topics will not open in RH9 Editor

    I upgraded a RH8 project with a simplified chinese character set to RH9 and the topics will not open in the RH editor.  See screen shot below.
    After clicking off on the error dialog, the topic opens in noptepad showing the HTML.  This occurs on every topic in the project.  I also had one of my collegues test the upgrade on their machine and same result occrred.  I am not sure if there is anything in the project I can troubleshoot or what else to try.  Checking any topic properties/general tab, I noticed the edtitor field is hard coded to use Notepad.  I do not know why this would be unless RH9 is confused about how to process the character set .
    This problem did not occur in RH8 with simplified Chinese character sets.  I am going to submit a bug report to Adobe but if anyone has any knowldge or experience uin this area, please advise.
    Thanks,

  • The bookmark side bar when I click onto a topic will not come up to full screen it stays only in the side bar area.

    Is there a setting some where that needs to be adjusted. Some topics will come up to full screen, but yahoo is staying only on the side bar. To get a full screen version I have to google.

    Will the standard iPad case fit the the iPad Air or is there a specific type case for the iPad Air?

    The air is different dimensions from other iPads, so look for cases made specifically for it. I know that Targus has some, so does Zagg and i'm sure other manufacturers do as well.

  • Will Ipad air 1 cases fit ipad air 2?

    Since the ipad air 2 is slimmer than the 1, will any of the cases fit properly or do I have to wait for third party cases to be released (don't want to buy the official apple case)?

           iPad Air 2                         iPad Air 1
    Height:
    9.4 inches (240 mm)
    Width:
    6.6 inches (169.5 mm)
    Depth:
    0.24 inch (6.1 mm)
    Height:
    9.4 inches (240 mm)
    Width:
    6.6 inches (169.5 mm)
    Depth:
    0.29 inch (7.5 mm)
    As you can see the iPad Air 2 is thinner so id say its not going to work and you should just get a new case.

  • Will a Zalman CNPS7000-Cu fit on an MSI KM4AM-L Motherboard?

    The subkect line says it all:
    Will a Zalman CNPS7000-Cu fit on an MSI KM4AM-L Motherboard?
    If not, then I need some recommendation for a low profile (low hieght) HSF that's quiet - quieter than my stock HSF that came with my AMD 3000 XP.
    This is not the computer in my signature below - it's for a friend ;-)
    Thanks,
    Randy R...

    I don't think so, but if you add an 'A': Zalman CPU Fan Socket A/478/754 CNPS7000A-Cu.
    Be very careful! It is much heavier than recommended. And it IS a bit tricky to attach. But when finally there it does a marvellous and quiet job. Zalman's site is a bit difficult to search in the way you would like to:

  • Will MX922 ink jet cartridges fit my MX920 printer?

    Will the MX922 ink cartridges fit the MX 920 printer?

    Hi bikerjim,
    The PIXMA MX922 is in the PIXMA MX920 series of printers, so they both use the same ink tanks.  If you are unable to find the inks locally, Canon supplies and accessories can be purchased online at the Canon eStore, or by calling 1-800-385-2155 to speak to a Canon eStore representative between the hours of 8 am and midnight, EST, 7 days a week, excluding holidays.
    Hope this helps!

  • I have a iphone 3GS and it just started doing this. When I play my play list, it will keep repeating the same some over and over. I have to click the next song and it plays it over and over. It doesn't go through albums or song lists. How can I stop that?

    When I try to play albums or artists or any other catagories on my itunes library my iphone 3GS will only repeat the first song over and over and will not go on to the other songs. This just started. It won't random or play through the whole album or artist. How can I remedy this problem?

  • HT4914 My pc has crashed and lost a considerable amount of music and videos from iTunes the files are still in iTunes but are empty, will iTunes Match restore my content over the cloud?

    My pc has crashed and lost a considerable amount of music and videos from iTunes the files are still in iTunes but are empty, will iTunes Match restore my content over the cloud?

    Hm ... I guess I can't edit the post above. Anyway, I seem to have solved it by ...
    Quitting iTunes.
    Going into Home / Music / iTunes, and renaming the file "iTunes Library.itl" to "iTunes Library (corrupt).itl".
    Entering Time Machine, and restoring the "iTunes Library.itl" file from a few days ago. I went back two days, which seemed far enough back to be "before" the problem but not far enough back to have trouble with recent acquisitions.
    Re-opening iTunes - and everything seemed to be back in order.
    So that's fine for now. We'll see if the solution is stable.
    Very, very tentative assignment of blame: I believe iTunes crashed earlier today after I'd synced photos from my iPhone to iPhoto, and then iTunes crashed while iPhoto was closing (and taking its sweet time doing so). If that was indeed the case, that's at least the second time in the past couple of months that trying to sync iPhone photos to iPhoto has caused me significant problems. (The last time led to 80% of my iPhone suddenly being occupied by "Other", and a full restore of the darn thing.)
