thanks guys for the kind words.

I didn't do much just an extreme dusting of all the parts, this loop is pretty damn hard to get apart, in fact I dread the day I have to do that

One of the reasons why I might not go back to water. If I do it'll be the Corsair H50, it's also all black which would look great in my build

What clocks you running it at bro?

Nice and stable little 3.8ghz - honestly I havent even tried to overclock this thing to the limit, kind of a shame because I think my 955 is rather nice. (this screen is not max clocks for this voltage nor min voltage for this clock )




Its super snappy and I havent seen a stuttered frame yet at 1920x1200

That's a nice overclock man, not extreme, but nice and conservative!

I just recently traded my i7 for a UD5 and 965 C3. I must say, this thing is snappy as hell, quicker than the i7 at most times I would say. That's probably from the AMD lacking Hyper Threading. Not all apps take advantage of that.

Here is my latest stable setup, I haven't really tried higher for stability, I had gone higher before but just to bench and screw around. I'll continue working on my overclock tomorrow.

You should check out the last couple of pages from the Phenom II Overclockers Thread, me and a couple of peeps have posted some very valuable and interesting info and overclocking these CPU's and core by core tuning. Here is the Link

Where I'm at now:

Nice stuff! I'd have to build it myself, then maybe part it out. Gotta keep the SSD and the 5850 though

Okay I was just shown this by CP (I love you man!) tonight, and I have to say this is the MOST UNBELIEVEABLE build I've ever seen.

It's soooo clean, so though out, so smooth and flow...ing (heh) words aren't good enough to describe it.

Truly awe inspiring.

Kei <--- totally failed at words to describe how he feels about this build

My monitor was $80, I ask for nothing more.

Anyhow, I cropped it to the best of my abilities (LOL I always wanted to say that) but it ended up being slightly blurrier than the original.
