BlueOrb on the NorthBridge???

[FaceOff]

The title says it all...

Is the HSF on the Abit´s KT7A-RAID good enought???
May a BOrb influence in stability???

I have been running my Asus A7M266 at 156 FSB, It has a generic fan and heatsink on it. I have been considering going with the blue orb since its only 12 bucks. If it will let me push my bus speed up a couple of Mhz it will be well worth it. If I do get one I'll let you know the performance gains if any.

If you don't know already, the blorb won't fit on the kt7a unless you mod it.

Just put a drop or two of superglue on the edges...it'll hold up nicely

 

[KouklatheCat]

Anyone do anything similar on an A7V?

 

[Fuzzmuncher]

superglue or thermal adhesive?

No need to waste $10 on the northbridge. Buy yourself a cheap heatsink and it will work fine.

I successfully blorbed my Iwill KK266r's NB. Had to play with it a bit to get it to clamp down well but now its perfect . As soon as my CPU from newegg arrives i may actually be able to try it out . The blorb fits with my dangerden maze2-2 waterblock also. I got pretty lucky .

And the blorb looks so cool
