Hi

I've had my system for a few months now and everything seems fine except the odd problems from CSS / HL2 which according to the Steam forums seem to be related to Valve's updates. Anyway, aside from that all is well.

I was wondering if anyone has any idea how far I would be able to push my system based on the week LBBLE 0516 DPMW.

I played around with overclocking a few months ago but didn't have the time to do all the required testing so I left it for a while. Anyway, I have a bit more time that I can spend doing some benchmarks and tests and leaving it running Memtest and Prime.

I'd rather stay clear of water cooling until I upgrade my case and from reading threads a few months ago, an XP-120 cooler seemed like the way to go at the time (providing it fits the Ultra-D correctly).

I've also seen these two coolers:

[Link removed, I was referring to a Coolermaster Mini Aquagate R120]

The second one seems like an easy water cooled solution which doesn't take much installation.

Any thought or comments would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
