I might... might still throw a Vapochill on it lying around. It hasn't been used since around mid 2006. I've been considering for some time but I did a few basic cold runs as an initial checkup and my last 9500 and 9600BE still did not boot 20MHz more than air at -30C/-20C/-10C/0C/5C/10C/15C (IHS), frustrated me after all the effort, so I haven't bothered again. AM2 mounts here were impossible to find for the VC, I have to order from more than 7000 miles away, wait 4 weeks and the cost was the same as buying a good WC setup so I withheld -> unless someone can show me some very healthy gains.

Water usually gains quite a bit of MHz, especially stability. Most guys can validate and small bench 3.1-2.95GHz with water and get 2.7-2.9G fully stable.

I'd like to see any cold runs by anyone even Sami if they could get 10MHz more than air/water with Phenom.

Ever? 1,525V on the M2A-VM in the first week, later never more than 1,475V on the M2A-VM (max stable voltge) and not more than 1,425V (few minutes) on the sapphire.
A few days before I just had verified my oc results on the m2a-vm and could not find any signs of long term degradation.
Hmmm I don't tend to run plus 1.35V on mine. I'm very weary and will drop the temps to 0-10C ambients before I run above that and throw 3 more plus 100CFM fans around it.

If you could still get the same as you had before on the chip a few days back, then I don't understand how it just blanked out.
