    lol woah easy there big boy.

    Most quads wont be able to handle the heat output on AIR @ anything higher then 3.6ghz on WCG. Trust me on this dave. If you can squeeze 3.7ghz on air, and still keep happy happy temps then i would set it at that.

    If your quad does 4.0ghz on air, i think eric will be bashing his head on his desk going DOE! i lost another good one.


    Anyhow... Yes! we need pics of it running!

    I'll say Ohio, unless someone convinces me otherwise.....and yes, I have plenty of dairy farmer relatives in Wisconsin. Not even close to this stuff.....

    I've had some of the import Irish white cheddar, again, not even close...good, but not there.....

    and two more..The case is a Lian Li PC76..2 inches wider than a normal tower, 4-80's front,120 rear and a 120 blowhole.Simply the best case ever made IMO. You can stuff 16 drives in it and a DVDRW if you wanted. They don't make these anymore. Took me a year to find this. Got it from eBay for $275.00 2 years ago.
    Here is is ( old pic I had) of the PC76 beside my PC70.
    The size difference shows up here:

    I have never been one for being anal over cable management but I sat there doing this and figured that if people thought enough of me to do this I owed them the best job I could do.
    That may sound corny but it's how I feel.

    Don't get over excited and burn up your new toy.

    5.10.13 has been solid for me but I am trying 5.10.20 x64 on my XP Pro x64 boot.

    I just may bite the bullet and put win2K3 64 in there.
    I was trying to stay away from that because I want to use the quad as my main machine.
    Win2K3 although stable as hell is a PITA for an everyday machine..

    I was wondering if anyone was going to pick up on that..
    Yea, I installed, took the pics, then realised and changed it..It's blowing through now and the 120 case exhaust is taking it right out..
    Good Catch...
