I hate to say this, cause the original build worked so well, but...
As you may, or may not, recall, I sent my SS to sdumper a couple months ago for repair. It was found to have a slow leak that he repaired(?) then retuned and sent the rig back to me.
Upon using it immediately upon it's return, it worked like a champ w/ -40C plus temps at full load.
Then it sat for a month or two.
Hooked it up last night and it took about 20 minutes to register -34C with the CPU dead to the world. Once I booted, the temps nosedived and went positive faster than a ... well, you know. Before I knew it I was positive 30 so I shut it down.
Several more attempts yielded the same results
Was going to use it for some tuning on my bench rig, but now I'm using my Corsair A70 with 5 fans and it's doing a pretty good job (at stock clocks)
Guess I gotta try again and hope the fail sauce turns to win ??
