Ok, I just want to say thanks to everyone here (and the amdmb forums) for helping me get to where I am now, especially Demrok, HOOD, and DocSilly. I feel like I have a pretty good grasp of my current OCing situation. Right now, I'm at 11.5x200, and that appears to be about as far as I can go, though...

"fine copper wire" "socket holes"? that sounds like it would take more dexterity than i could muster. i found out that there's an 'electrical shop' here that sells silver 'conducting tape'. i think i should check that out before messing with this carbon paint (i've found out that...

Ok well, I ordered the 'silent boost' and some acrtic silver3 from crazypc. I wasn't sure which of the three to go with, so I went with the cheapest :) I'll definitely let you guys know how it goes. Is it going to be hard to remove the pad-suff on the core from my stock hsf? Also, should I bother tr...

thanks for the welcome, demrok! yeah, i've been looking around, and i like the adjustible speed feature on the volcano12. problem is i thught the thermalrights are generally better than thermaltakes, but maybe that was pre-volcano12.. anyway, i was also looking in this forum and some others at previ...
