hi Oj...it has been a good long while :)

you might be right as i can't seem to locate the other popular M4 or samsung 830 models anywhere :(

i've stayed away from ssd's for too long and have not done enough research to know which drive to now aquire.
i'd be greatful if some of you would advise me which approximately 120gb ssd i should...

i had the same issue till i switched to firefox...if you on ie6 you're in trouble imo

well...there's two ways...firstly a metalworks shop with a fancy machine that will cut the whole thing out for you...this is the expensive option.
the cheap option is to find the closest copper...

of the choice in post #26 there isn't really one....obviously more mass and surface area is the right choice.
and from experience the issue Westyle mentioned does indeed occur but my 4mm hole block...

latest image looks good...cut of corners will help with insulation as the edge of the block won't be compressing the insulation too hard at the corner.
if you can somehow get more surface area you...

yeah...70mm is better...once you get any bigger than that it often becomes difficult to insulate the block where it meets the northbridge 'sink.
your specs are looking good though..2kg's with over...

i think its a promising design...if it was my block i would reduce the size of the larger holes and then drill more holes overall.
my last block had about 300cm2 of surface area (total area...

diameter
i've used 4mm diameter with 12mm depth which worked perfectly and can really pull town temps...but then i had about 100 holes.
yours appear deaper which is why i say 6mm...you want the...

more mass is almost always a good thing yes...basically your temperature swings to the upside will be slower the more mass you have.
say the nitrogen has evaporated from the last pour then only the...

more holes in my opinion....the heavier the base the more surface area you need if you want to be able to lower temps while say running full tilt on an i7.
otherwise i think its going to be...

in my opinion go for a 50mm high piece to start with...then drill your holes say 20mm into that....the more smaller holes the better as you get higher surface area with more holes that will therefor...

the voltage tweak software has been officially release: http://event.msi.com/vga/afterburner/images/MSIAfterburnerSetup110.zip
its very nice software in that it allows fan, core/mem clock, and...

hmmm....well i hope it goes better with volts...please let us know if it does...afterburner with all the volts you need will be available in about three days.

so i put a handmade ghetto water block on the gpu last night to see what would happen with the shaders.
i did make it one step further to 864/1732/1350 (gpu/shader/mem) but could go no further.
so...

i was supposed to ln2 this card last weekend...but i failed at that...so now i'm working to purchase a nice 160l pressurised tank for my home :D
then i won't have to travel 200km every time i need...

well i was doing 1700 shaders with just air cooling at software monitored max temp of 52'C.
so i think once you have taken the core to -70 or so you will find it easily surpasses my clocks.
the...

cowie - check team swedens shaders from moa2009...they achieved 2226 :o :http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showpost.php?p=4020828&postcount=1186

Hazzan - i will do so...i'm just beginning my fun...

after MOA2009 in Beijing i recieved the MSI 275GTX Lighting so i decided to do a little testing on it.
everyone was very impressed with the card and in particular its ability to bench reliable at...

thank you noxon...i'll give it a go tonight

thanks...i was just hoping someone had a confirmed solder point to hand :)....i will figure it out though.

excuse the OT but does anyone have the vmem mod for the 275gtx lightning that they can post here or pm to me please?

i have a couple of pics here too.

but first let me say how nice it was to see everyone again and to meet some new people.
also thanks goes to all those involved at MSI who clearly did a very good...
