I ran 3DMark03 as well but nothing worth submitting. What temps were you using for the E6600 runs?

CB on the E6600 was at -135?C idle, -140?C heavy load, I tried to keep it around -130?C most of the time. CBB at -125?C.

That CBB is nice and low. One of my good e8600's has a sweet spot at around -140 but has a CBB of like -60 lol. Its a pain to warm it up just to get it going again and then pull the temp back down. The chips worth it though.

A CCB at -60?C sounds like a major pita, my E8600 coldbugs at -145?C and boots at -135?C, but doesn't clock as well as yours. Can't have everything I guess.

Two more pics of my setup thanks to Christian from Asus:

Nice clean setup Dan.

Thanks mate, the other overclockers teased me for keeping it that clean and putting all the items I don't need back in their respective boxes, but it helps me to stay focused.
