Babysitting till about 5, so no playing with it today. Tonight I have to get a PCMark run on the 555BE then I will get the Foxconn hooked up and put the 920 under water.
Corsair 750W PSU
3x1GB Kingston HyperX t1s 2000 cas8
300GB vrap
920
4890, 9500GT, 2x 7600gt and x800xt incoming.
Have to RMA my supertalent ram, and looks my 150GB raptor that cooked got upgraded to a vrap. Looking for a second 150 for it now for some raid 0 awesomeness.
(yeah I know SSD would be better, but for same price I get 2 hdds and about 20x the storage :) )
Hope to have a major boint push underway this weekend

I loved my Foxconn A79A-s.. was a bit frustrating at first.. but once I got the jist of it... I have yet to use a better AMD clocking board.
I just opened the package (I bought it on XS from mk-ultra) to my surprise a nice message was written on the box
OC Alliance is going down!!!
xtremesystems FTW :d !!
LOL
guess I will make sure and get this board setup tonight :)

If you can PCIE mod it, these little effers are extremely efficient in 2D benches. Best of luck mate.

Yeah my cousin said a couple of her friends have a PC shop right down the street from me, so I am going to see if they would do the PCIE mod for me. I don't have a 15W iron and would be afraid I would cook the SMD.
But yes when I purchased it, that was my intention from the get go :)

Really I had the BlackOps and the BloodRage and both behaved like a champ under LN2. Never had an issue. And YES I LOLed at the box!
HTFO.... is that a small pot that comes with the board?

Yup, comes with water block and POT for the chipset :)

unfortunately the chipset POT is pretty much as useless as a nipple on your elbow.

Well I will try it out anyway :)
Side note.. only found two packs of kneaded eraser at the art store... was just going to use vaseline, but not looking forward to the clean up. Is there something else I can use that I might be able to pick up elsewhere?
Try an old lady store like Michael's or something similar. The art stores around here only had the small packs, but the old woman craft store had 12 packs of the big....

Hobby Lobby sells them. Hell, Walmart might even have them in the school supply section.
