The older QX chips were multi-clockers, they didn't care for the bus to move much, hense why the multi is unlocked

If your 3 580's are anything like mine, they use a massive amount of power and I was even tempted to upgrade my 1200W PSU to a 1500W as it was getting close!!
Very nice setup

Silver27, you really shouldn't lie hardware like motherboards on carpet/rug like that. Electrostatic discharge can kill components...

What are yo doing with those 580s? Because they max out at about 300W if you disable the limiter. But then I assume you will not run Furmark 24/7. :P

It get's real dry here in the winter months...so when I put a rig together in the winter I always remove my socks and wet my hair. Works like a charm. And motherbaords always sit on the anti-static bags they came in until the get installed - humid or not.

Luckily it was in the classroom and not my hardware, but it still goes to show you can't just assume you're safe from ESD. Needless to say the teacher lectured us about the importance of wearing our anti-static wrist straps, but at least he wasn't upset...

Got my hands on a Cosmos II a few weeks ago. What a giant this case is!
No color coordination here either. I'm just kind of obsessed with cleanliness right now.   If anyone has any suggestions to clean those pesky USB wires at the bottom I'll gladly take some advice. Those wires kind of irk me right now.

System Specs
but couldn't pass it up. The chip seems to be a dissapointment though, can't boot above 270x12 although it could also be my board. Sadly I don't have any other 775 board left.
