No real supprise at the results.

I remember trying this with socket A processors, but the earlyest instance I can recall is this - http://www.spodesabode.com/archive/c...cle/directdie1 on a pentium 3.
The results were still poor

The problem with direct die is that you need insane flowrates and pressures to get anything like decent results. As soon as you ramp up the pressure you will spring a leak!
