    Whoa!!! You have MEGABALL$!! I personally would have got neon green or hot pink, but that's just me There are some cool spray paints out there, like crazy chrome, and those that look anodized and such. Lots could be done with this type idea me thinks

    i just read about it and it showed some nice results for the price, but how is it for 24/7? i have not found much on that.

    Ok I havent used it in a while so lets wait for temp talk. I myself have seen good results I would say....I have ran it for weeks at a time.

    The one thing that makes me mad at it is. It does not always turn on. It gets to -35c or what ever when it turns on the PC. Instead it shuts down and I have to wait till it gets to -8c to flip it back on. It can do this over and over for an hour before it stays on....I asked fugger about how to remove that and he said remove the controller...I have no idea I opened it up and nope I could kill it too fast. I need to find some picks on what to do. I just want to flip a switch and it comes on.

    At other times it starts just fine and could do so every day. Then you hit that day and you almost pass out waiting on it to just run...


    When around 1.9v on a quad or even 2.0v the read out on the phase will say around -62 which is a lie but it's working very very hard I can feel the heat dump. The QX stays frozen(no temp reads coming from the chip) but I was going for 5Ghz never done that before. Then the man I asked(king)said I had my pll way over kill. I should of been doing less with it than more more and more.




    So I hit 4.8Ghz with a QX9650. I can bench at 4.6 if I can remember right. But like I said about that damn pll.


    If it wasn't for that I don't know what bug it is having I would love it. I almost have to leave it on if I don't want to get mad at it the following day.



    Also my water setup makes more noise than it does. It's more low tone so it just really does not bug you.

    I love it the uv glow is just extra. I think it's going to jump put of the case

    hot pink is the UV, and it's a good thing I happen to like pink

    Cant wait to have it all installed paint is taking for ever to dry....a little cold out

    thats that then
    i dont mind pink colour at all...i have lots of shirts and tshirts hehe but i just kinda look at all that different hardware and its just not matching up hehe

    but if you like it thats all that matters

    plus you may even have a bit more protection again water and stuff

    btw i dont know if the Asus LAN chips get hot but on reference board they run real hot and i would uncover the spray on those things

    maybe do a check

    Dont take this personally. I think it looks awful. And that red glitter glue on the chips... You might as well go ahead and pain on a big rainbow. I'm not trying to be a troll. Its just my opinion.

    If you like it, thats all that matters.

    Boy that info was old. As am I. Currently my kids have taken over my desktops. They are both sporting matching GTX1080's. Last Christmas I got everyone Oculuses and thus GTX1080's. My eldest is some sort of CSGO champion gold label something or other. Me I work and shoot real guns. Build Comps as needed.

    It's cool.

    Everyone has their own opinion. I didn't use the glitter glue. I used a marker for the red. Were do you see shinny glitter at


    Also about painting over those chips. Could it not spread out the heat? Heat is going to work it's way out no matter what. I just didn't see masking them off if they didn't have a heatsink on them in the first place. I really don't think it's going to mess with them if so not bring down the system much.

    So far it's a I like it or I don't

    There are a lot of motherboards I hate the looks of and everyone else loves. To each their own.


    And ket your the first I know of that didn't like the looks of that white AMD board. Haven't seen you around in a while. I hope life has been treating you well.

    I just saw the glitter glue sticks in one of your first posts and thought maybe you used them to paint your chips.

    Sorry dude, nice idea but it just does not look nice. Reminds me of that ugly Sapphire board that used I think it was the RS480 chipset.
