System Specs

Alright guys, rig is back up. NB was getting extremely hot, when I removed the heatsink it was purplish/blueish color like from the heat. Re applied TIM on that and the SB, passed 20 mintues of LinX, then crunched at 100% for about another 20 minutes. Before it wouldn't even make it into windows. As a matter of fact, last night it shutdown on stock clocks. So much better. The NB still feels warm, very warm, but better than before. This rig will not see any more benching as my next step is a bench rig. This is my daily driver, so I'm not gonna mess with it anymore.
