I am lucky in that both my wife and myself have good jobs. I have two great interests in my life: my PC and my car:Quote:

I am at home recovering from a spine operation at the moment so I am very bored, and when i am bored I play games on my PC. Then I see my Crysis frame rates and I want a faster computer!!
BTW Have you seen that the next Intel (Nehalem) chipset will support Crossfire and SLi!!!!

Sorry to hear that. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Also, have you customized your beamer too.:D.Quote:

I did and planning to get two of 'em in crossfire X with an x48 board.Quote:

Right now I think I have a stable CPU and RAM overclock. It is either 450 x 9 @ 1.35v or 450 x 9.5 @ 1.43v, RAM is L&S in both case. They are both Orthos stable.
But I hit all kind of graphic problem in this overclock setting. RealPlayer would crash my PC, 3DMark06 stop after 3 hours, GRID crashes almost immediately, and it can't complete a 99 loops Crysis Benchmark run.
the GRID issue is worth mentioning. At 450 x 9 @ 1.35v, it crashed at the opening moive. But if I increase to 1.375v, it was much better, but seem it was still not completely stable.... then I tried a 6 Hour GTR2 run, seem ok, but when I go back to main menu it crash immediately, screen distorted.
Also, reducing my graphic card overclock seem to have some help to this situation, but this overclock was tested and confirmed stable before I start my CPU / RAM overclock....
I think that other than CPU voltage there is another thing that I am missing. Is it NB and SB voltage?
And I have SLI. Is it the SLI instability problem you guys talked about?
I pulled the trigger on the OCZ DDR3 4GB kits for $369 after MIR. I hope with this kit, I hope be able to hit atleast 1800 in sync and hope my memory problems go away.
Yes its a very interesting card. It will be great when the reviews come out to see how it scales in crossfire. I am going to stick with my tri-sli until Nehalem- crossfire and sli on the same board - wow!!Quote:

Will do!Quote:

One out of three GTX 280 cards fitted with EK block, two to go!!

Test specifications are based on dual core CPUs only. If quad core CPUs are used, higher bus thresholds and core arbitration may necessitate lowering the memory frequency below tested specs."

Man, a nice PC and with such car, who isnt happy? :cool:Quote:

Yeah but Im stuck with a Striker II loooool! :DQuote:

OFFTOPIC! j/k :rolleyes: I dont mind this at all ;)Quote:

I am! :DQuote:

Yes, short side on mossfet and S-type on top :)
+1.Quote:

Wow, I hadn't spotted that. Its a 6mm fitting which is very restrictive, but it would definitely work!Quote:

I'll see how the Enzotech works. I am leak testing everything as we speak!Quote:

If I'm not messing with my PC I'm messing with my truck! :up:
Got my fingers crossed...ALL my EK blocks should arrive on friday. Going to redo the whole WC loop, even splurged on the new special bitspower 1/2 compression fittings for Tygon R3603(should look sweet with no ugly zip ties)
With PC probe which chip is it reporting for MB? Southbridge or northbridge? Im water cooling with the Fusion block and my Motherboard temp shows about 32degrees full load.
You are using the Enzotech low profile heatsink right?Quote:
