Took me about 10 minutes of which was mostly spent re-wrapping the socket in toilet paper.

There are some things associated with overclocking that I believe normal people find at least intriguing and possibly beautiful. Some of the more elaborate cascades blow most of the watercooling hotrod rigs out of the water in industrial beauty.

Not everyone will agree on what is beautiful or aesthetically pleasing. Watching the plumes of nitrogen and the whine of the fans did way more for me than the case that was sitting next to my rig at the XS event
you mean the case that was not plugged in do you could have power? yep.

I am sorry but a rats nest of cables and no attention to at last neatness is ridiculous. I agree the plumes of nitrogen and fracken cool but it would be cooler if you guys at least had someone help to make it look good. It all depends on what your goal is.

Wish I thought about a beautiful phase unit. damn, my first entry into a mod contest was a phase-changed rig. looks + performance.
