Modifications.... adding extra fans around certain areas to help cool it down, means it not a proper daily user has to be made of modifications to run like that.

Spend 1200-1400 plus tax and shipping for just a freaking CPU is nuts, when a lower 300-500 CPU can almost do the same as that 1200-1400 CPU can do.

I want to see Daily Usage here people not MAX OC as if i wanted to see that on this nice DFI mobo i would spend $3000.00 total and LN the damn thing.
Modifying a board is soldering resistors to it to allow greater vCore/Vdimm/CPU PLL limits and droop calibration

Modifying a board is not adding fans, that's the most stupid thing I've read on this forum.
