    Philly_boy & Cpt Planet benching with LN2 at Micro Center Event June 9th!!

    Jake and I will be attending this Build-Your-Own-PC event at the North Jersey Micro Center in Paterson NJ this Saturday...June 9th. Check out the info here. I've decided to make a run for the front page (top 20) of the 3D Mark 05/06 ORB at this event.

    We'll be assembling my benching rig on a custom Danger Den Torture Rack bearing the Xtreme Systems logo for the event. EVGA has contributed a 680i board that we've volt modded as well as a kickin set of 8800GTX's that we've also volt modded and are scaling quite nicely. We'll have some LN2 cooling on the GFX cards courtesy of Iron Mods and either Chilly1 will have my cascade to me by then or we'll be running LN2 on the CPU as well. We may even run a phase driven water chiller for the NB/SB courtesy of n00b of l337. Link to see the "Golem" chiller here. I'll also be running a DD supplied water loop for the NB/SB featuring a GTX 240 rad, a D5 pump and DD Maze 4 NB/SB blocks. Corsair will be adding the icing on the cake with a set of their Dominator PC2 10000 2x1gb kits. EDIT: As Computex is this week in Taiwan, I won't be getting the Dominators in time for the run. We'll have to "run what we brung" as they say in NASCAR racing.

    I'd love to see a contingent of XS'ers up there to enter this contest and/or hang out for the day. I know Jake (Cpt planet) will be there with a rig as will INJ Viper, NoL and Phelan1777. Can anyone else make it? Please chime in so I can petition for swag for everyone!!

    I will be posting a work log of my progress in assembling the rig, adding in the LN2 pots, testing it out, etc here so stay tuned.
