    Looking for a D0 975 cpu. 6 GB Dominator GT 2000 Mhz, three GTX295s, Intel X25-Es, Intel advanced NIC, Raid Controller, and some form of sound card (I own Auzentech, Xonar and Creative and they all sux on the analog.. sound absolutely horrible).

    I got one video card rebuilt with a water block tonight. I had to take my time and be very careful. It took me over two hours because I was afraid to pry the stocking heatsink off the video card, and I have three more to go! The end result is *bad* *a$$* (aigomorla forgive me for my sins)...

    Good for you. I wouldn't worry about you as long as stay away from the Gulf of Eden.

    Congratulations! Any ideas of what to use as silver inside a MCRES? I have no room for a tube reservoir. Otherwise, it would be easy to use a 5 troy ounce silver ingot or silver bar. 10 ounce would be possible too, but its kind of silly to spend $200 of silver on a $25 reservoir lol...

    I was in Hamilton in January on business. It was a nice change from the winter around New York. It must be frustrating waiting for shipments to arrive from the US, and I can understand why you buy two of everything. My wife doesn't object to the cost of the hobby, but hates the brown...

    Thank you very much for your compliments. However, I'm supposed to be a good friend of Aigomorla, the moderator :) And I usually end up being a thorn in his side... And he invited me to this forum! lol :)

    The trouble is people who are insatiable. I would imagine 4 Ghz from a $300 cpu that is speced fro 2.67 Ghz is a pretty darn good overclock. But no, people want to do it at 1.15 volts :) Or take it to 4.5 Ghz on stock heatsink. Or pay $1200 to get a 975EE when there are no guarantees of a...

    There's an active thread over at Hardforums in the overclocking section. [sorry] And I can confirm that 12 GB of Corsair 1600 works well on the P6T6 Rev. bios 0407

    Aigomorla, Sorry to be a party pooper. Yes, these processors generally run a desired overclock and a lower voltage. Generally. However, have you read all across the internet forums? Its a crap shoot. Some of the guys who bought the retail D0s from Microcenter, Tankguys, Fry's and...

    Your Take on PhysX

    I buy my cards for CUDA. I'm indifferent to Physx, but if it's there, then its an added bonus. However, I must say that the boost is quite noticeable if the application does support Physx, which is rare. I do play GRAW1 and GRAW2 and enjoy those games, but I don't care about Physx and the...

    GTX260 upgrade path

    Hold off and save money. The GTX300 series is coming later this year, and it'll be perfect as a dual gpu card in your single slot mobo, that is if you want to keep your mobo. That is unless you can find a bargain deal on a GTX295.
