I think they were referring to having everything set to go, like the bios beforehand CP. Less time spent fiddling around with the little things while on LN2.

Didn't think of that. However, is there any other prepping other than the insulation and related stuff? Just curious as I plan to get a DICE/LN2 pot hopefully latest early next year, want to try to get into some extreme cooling. So any info is appreciated

The prep work is probably the most impotant factor in a subzero session. Once you're properly setup, it leaves you with the peace of mind to clock with confidence. Tuning the pc under subzero on the i7 platform is a bit different than s775 and needs a bit more finess. Just starting out you'll find right away that you can attain supremely better clocks at lower volts. It's when you enter the upper range that you start to appreciate the tinker skills of the more experienced clockers.

That's how I see anyhow, one things for sure, once you get a taste of cold, ur done, hooked like a chronic in Chinatown, bam Overclockaholic!
