    Ya I was looking at some PC Power and Cooling PSU's. they have adjustable POT's. but they are expensive, plus the adjustable POT's didn't help much in the reviews I read.. I wonder if my PSU is supplying enough power for my system? I think it's probably ok.

    I did look up the Odin GT. I checked out the software. looks pretty good. I wouldn't mind having that one.

    also Nice bigslappy.. I sure WISH I had the funds to get a second one as you are... and that I had water to get those type of temps. if I could.. I'd be doing 4.3 Ghz 24/7 probably.. or maybe a little less.
    Also I noticed you have both PC P&C PSU's. they have adjustable POT's. do you dare get the needed tools to turn them up and see if they help your overclocks as Napalm has said?

    How do you guys are removing the void warranty stickers? If the PSU go pufff because of a 'birth defect' but the labels where taken you guys are taking the loss?

    When buying a Q9650 now, what do you think is the best chipset/board for the best OC? X48 or P45?
