is your nickname "diebreaker"?

but thats cool, i never thought about stock hsf... the ones from intel are deadly flat, so your mod probably achieved some nice temperatures,eh?

Might as well post this here as it relates to my PC ATM.



Big difference. I decided to get rid of my RAID 0 setup since my array got screwed and I ended up having to reinstall Win7 and lose all my stuff. I'm probably going to trade my second 640 for a 1TB Green for storage.

Basically, the pic is to represent that I got fookin prawned.

Just got done installing 7 home premium on my Asus 900HA eeePC. It was incredibly simple to do from a USB drive. The APK drivers from Asus for XP worked fine, got the graphics drivers for the M945 from intel and Windows Update took care of the rest.

i put some TIM on the chips and put a tiny drop (very thin can hardly see it) of super glue on the corners of the chips and that has yet to fail me. it is easily removable if your careful

Same with mixing AS5 with AS Epoxy to get a 50/50 compound out of it, that's what I did with a Dell Inspiron 9100/ XPS Gen 1 which had a Radeon 9800 256. I used that stuff on Tweakmonster Ramsinks on the VRam. I used stacked Akasa Shinetsu pads on the VPU since the heatsink had a big gap, it worked so well that I got a overclock of 459/416 from stock of 350/300.
