true

i felt bad at one point seeing the poor guy, sick, running around getting video for us, dicking around with laptop to get sound work and at the same time prepping for the comp and even writing some notes off the laptop ahha

Chris is a machine :up:

Some people came to the show with custom made pots and others with ones that didn't quite fit properly and needed some extra finesse to get them to work properly. A couple of metal plates, a ton of insulating material and two big fat C-Clamps usually will work in pace of four bolts and nuts as you can see from the picture above. Just don't move the video card from side to side as that setup must weigh a ton. If you are wondering who uses C-Clamps for overclocking, it would be no other than Jeremiah 'MIAHALLEN' Allen, 29, who recently won Toms Hardware Guide "Overdrive" North America and World Champions (Team IRONMODS).

I WAS NOT USING THE C-CLAMPS INSTEAD OF PROPER MOUNTING HW :ROTF:...I was only using them to hold the insulation in place :up: Works quite well :yepp:

If it doesnt work out within the next 24 hours, i'll host them on my photobucket and just go buckwild on this thread.

Lemme know if you need somewhere to post some stuff for a while. I have space to some spare on my server.

We should be switching over to a new Server, i may do it once we merge over. :)

Just be patient guys, if you'd like a picture of yourself PM me and i can send you a photobucketed shot for now. I have images of basically everything, benches, prizes, group photos, individual setups, each overclocker, scores, you name it. ;)

Guys, I think I'm a DARPA bio-warfare experiment. On the plus side I'm feeling much better so it is only a ~4 day affair. To all those who get sick from me, just imagine what it is like to feel that way with ~4 hours of sleep a night :D Now, I passed the swine flu test(put hand over frying pan, if bacon smell emerges you are infected) flawlessly so I think it must be bird flu. oink.
