    wasn't planning on ditching 775 but hey!

    I managed to get a new P6T deluxe (palm version) for a very low price, I'm always a sucker for a bargain!


    Anyway, I want to watercool the NB/SB which means removing all of the onboard cooling.


    The problem I have is sourcing the parts in the UK, or finding someone not in the UK who stocks the parts I want and will ship to the UK!


    For the CPU I'm leaning towards the Enzotech Sapphire or the Heatkiller 3.


    For the NB/SB, the Bitspower BP-WBAIX58NS-BK black freezer looks very tasty!


    For the mosfets I need 1 enzotech MST-73 and 1 MST-88 (correct me if these are not compatible)


    Can anyone help me? I dying to get this rig up and running.


    With a 920 'DO', some DDR3 OCZ 1600 and the rest of the bits from the build in my sig I might be tempted to get another GTX280 soon, just to help @2560x1600!


    I was going to keep the Maximus Formula, Q9450 and PC2-9200's and upgrade my 2nd rig but I think they'll end up on a popular auction site while they're still worth something. lol


    I'll be a bit sad to see them go to be honest, they've been a winning combo for the past 12-18 months.


    I'd appreciate any input you amazing XS guys can offer

    I would have waited for the i7 950 D0 being released for sale on June 1st. Those will do 5.0GHz on Water.

    I don't have the CPU yet, so I may just hang on...cheers

    EDIT: having just looked up the 950, I'm not looking to spend that much. The 920 oc'd @ 4ghz will do me just fine for now!
