bt_medic04, you said your voltages are low, did you test them with a DMM or using software? Software isn't accurate and almost always reports low. NeoHE PSUs are usually pretty good, Seasonic built units.

nice to see fellow LianLi/DFI lp/opteron hippies :toast:
Hey Aurora, I know this may be a bit late but will these do?

i go off of what the bios reports. not sure exactly off the top of my head what the voltages are but the 12v is something like 11.7. the 5v and 3.3v are within spec. i just might be anal about it, but i dont like seeing my 12v doing a roller coaster lol. also my cpu voltages usually droop (ill set 1.45 and it shows 1.42 probably due to the board itself) and jump a bit in the bios. im probably just being paranoid but i bought the original NeoHE before the asus problem had been discovered/fixed. :stick: looks like ill have to get a multimeter and check it out :banana:
Yes, do so. My bios reports low on the 12V rail as well (11.86 or something like that) but it really is not that low. Also my vcore was supposedly bouncing all over when the CPU wasn't under load, but a DMM verified it wasn't, and actually showed that the board overvolts my CPU by 0.06 volts. So I have my bios set to 1.3V and my CPU gets 1.36V (which is just about stock for it, 1.35V is stock).
You'd think that it shouldn't be that hard to put an accurate voltmeter on these boards but I guess the mobo mfr's haven't figured it out yet :rolleyes:
I guess I should add my own pics of my frankenbuild already. I have had this setup for a little while now, just never posted pics of it before. All the specs (mostly in my sig already) and more info (and technically all the same pictures too) at = http://www.gt-clan.net/kuhlas_stuff/...age/index.html. Yes I know it is ugly but it will be put in a new case eventually that will be properly modified to fit everything inside it. The case it is in right now I started to modify then gave up from frustration due to poor planning. Its a modified Antec Super Lanboy. Before anyone asks, this has been lanparty portable tested :D :D Here is my sig:

The eagle eyed of you may have noticed the Petra's Tech Shop pen in the second picture :D Love that store.
Kuhla, it's like I'm seeing a car accident. It's scary, but I can't look away!
@kuhla, I'm envying your headphones:eek: . Audio-Techica makes some pretty decent stuff!:toast:
BTW, are those Klipsch Promedia speakers?

I like how clean you keep your desk, but your computer looks gross lol.
It looks like your computer is throwing up!

How did you get your hard drive tucked in so far?
Just a bit of pressure-it still slides in the front, no relieving anything. Need to get another hard drive, as it's only 160, and I run headless, so I have ISOs to store.
So you still have the drive bay cover in place with that hard drive that far in? I'm going to have to try that.
I'll post a front pic tomorrow, shows my hand-cast polycarb reservoir too...
just wait till I make my own blocks!
Wow, there are some really wild setups in here.
Nice setup Aurora, I love the PC-70 :) ; btw that doesn't look like EK 8800 block, clear up on that?..
I have multiple rigs, the EK is on my main oc'ing/gaming rig. It's a few pages back on this thread.
Edit: post #2970, but even those pics are outdated. here's the finished job:
