Did you have a hard time installing the transpiper at all? Did you find it made mounting the cpu cooler any harder with that copper plate in the way? Did you put thermal paste between the cpu and copper plate AND the copper plate and the cpu cooler?

I would love the try the transpiper on my system when I get the board but I have a bottom mounted psu and my rear exhaust fan is right beside the I/O shield meaning I have no airflow at the top portion of my case where the heatpipe would be sitting once installed outside of the chassis.

Installing transpiper was quite easy, I just had to remove one of the 120mm fan in the back so I could fit my screwdriver there. I did not use the copper plate, I think it would have negative impact on heat flow, it adds one extra layer to be filled with thermal compound. I don't think you'll be able to mount it on the bottom where your power supply will be. It will block your pci/pic-e connections. I mounted mine so it blocks as little airflow as possible from 2X 120mm rear fans.

Try CPU VTT/FSB VTT voltage 1.35v and NB Core voltage 1.45v. Start from there with exact *timings* as you had on Gigabyte board. Set Perfomance Level to 5 manually and set all Channel/DIMM CLK fine delay to 1 (depending on your bios, you'll be able to tweak either DIMM 1 & 2 or all DIMMs, 1 & 2 & 3 & 4). From there test stability and raise CPU VTT/FSB VTT voltage and NB Core voltage. I needed VTT 1.53v and NB 1.53v to reach DDR1240 32M superpi stable. 1 and 3 Channel/DIMM CLK fine delay is a sweet spot if you're doing 600Mhz+ on your ram. Also set Enhance Data transmitting: FAST and Enhance Addressing: FAST, unless you want to loose 1/6 of your total bandwidth.
