Awesome work there. That's the best part of benching.

Yes, there's nothing like being able to create something from scratch with your own hands that works.
You can honestly say you did it and the success will only inspire you to go further.

Good luck with the pot man and show us what it can do - I'm sure you'll get some good numbers from it.

I was able to test the my GPU pot out the other day works better than I thought. Best load temp with my 260gtx was -50c under DICE. Sorry to report the session didn't go well at all, first I was using my 9500GT and 9600GT on my P55 rig I run 05 which gave me scores of about 1200. I'm not sure if both these cards had a cold slow bug or what also maybe the fact that I've only had my cards @ 0c when benching. So I decided to move on to my 260gtx and 4-way with a 920. The card acted a lot better under cold but took me 2 hrs to figure out I needed hardly any voltage to get the OC's I was used to seeing under water. I found out my 9600 had a CBB of -40c with CB -50c. All in all it was the worst DICE session I've had so far

really made me feel like an Epic noob. Guess I have a lot to learn about subzero GPU benching....

Here's some pics of the session.

Any thoughts or tips I could try next time from the pros would be a great help

!

The downside to pot is lack of mass I have to fill it after every run but at the price of $35 I can live with that.
