    Seems like alot of fun, wondering if they managed to use 1/10 of that LN2, 1000L might be a little overckill?

    A great Contest

    Duck san was invited to help & did not actually play
    Japanese Teams had no luck this time (MB burned), travelling all the way from Japan (4hr flight) & took a long bus drive (5hrs)...maybe too tired !
    Nabezawa San & Saeki San fought until the last min..very good spirit

    Good grief how did the winner get 2450 mhz ram speeds ?
    Question : Why do some overclockers switch into d*ckmode when money is involved

    Remark : They call me Pro Asus Saaya yupp, I agree

    Thanks mad
    I think that the memory frequency related to bios
    You look at that cold slow bios,and look at galaxy gtx460(HY 0.5ns GDDR5)
    I have tested
    2350MHz 1.5V air
    2450MHz 1.95v ln2 (memory can be hotter, to prevent low temp)
