    High PWM temps with Abit IP35 Pro or other mobo?

    I still run an Abit AT8-32X Opteron 170/2 Gig GSkill DDR500... uGuru would report PWM temps all the way up to 103C at prolonged full load ! I do not have air conditioning in my computer room and deal with high ambient temps-sometimes 31c. I maxed out the warning temp, and disabled temperature...

    Verbatim (MMC media code) is top notch stuff. At least as good as TY, and usually better.

    The Unofficial ASUS P5N-E SLI 650i Board Thread

    That Sucks! I have 2 gb BPK from G.Skill, and booted right up. Never tried 1T, and I agree the vdroop is horrible. I bought a Sunbeam Nuuo 550 on sale; it worked-nothing fancy. I'm currently running 1.36 vcore on a xeon 3060 for 3.2 o/c, 42C (Summer over-clock, my computer room last week...

    The Unofficial ASUS P5N-E SLI 650i Board Thread

    Curiosity got the best of me... I flashed to 401. I should have stayed with 202. My temperatures are higher with the new bios. Before I had ~40C at idle/3.4Ghz, now I had ~46c idle. And was pushing over 60C in Orthos. Too rich for my blood, so I backed off my overclock to 3.2Ghz, and...

    I'm at home, but don't have a camera anymore. It was 'adopted'/'borrowed' by my girlfriend. But I'll get some pictures for you.

    No capacitors in the way. My biggest concern was my rear exhaust fan on the Cooler Master case. The Tuniq clears it by about an 1/8". But it clears it... I'll see if I can borrow a digital camera, and post a picture.
