:eek: You can always play 01 with 775 :thumbsup: Plus with dice your looking at plenty over 5ghz with dice on any decent E0 stepping dualie.

Well im looking to start on some cheap stuff

E2100 series has a nice number of submissions. E4000 and E6000 series have a ton of submissions too.

I was thinking AMD because boards are like 50-70 bucks used for ones that will punch out up to 400 MHz :) (100% OC on multi locked chips)

I got my eye on a couple things though. Will keep this thread updated. Right now I gotta get this atom rig slapped together modded and listed on eBay :)

Grabbed a cheap 620 x4 Biostar combo on eBay NIB for $105 shipped.

Not going to get a lot of boints but will get me started for sure.

Keeping my eyes peeled for 2x1/2x2 GB DDR3 and a high octane son of a bitch PSU.


Getting excited :)

Of course :)

I got confused and its not an AIRGAS located near me :( But they do sell Cryo stuff. Going to try and remember to call tomorrow and get prices on DIC and LN2 (w/ Dewar rental)

Make sure to look up welding supply shops for ln2 too. Just tell them you want to purchase what would otherwise evaporate and to give you a great price.

Dunno how to go about that TBH, and I doubt the welders rent dewars. Although I am sure I will find a way to buy a dewar after paying rentals fees a few times I am sure.

I found the local company (I thought it was Airgas) just happened to be o nthe same page. They handle all kinds of cryo and are only 3 miles away :)

I can hold it in my hands for that long right?
