    Nothing wrong with team japan style mounting right? I think it's a great way to be able to tighten down the pot harder once you've gone cold. Never used it though.
    Overclocking, it's a lifestyle

    Its actually a very nice way to tighten down.. the only problem is that it does become an obstruction in the way... plus the big screw I use is pretty crappy.. If I had a nice mount like those guys.. it would be much better...

    Stay tuned...

    step
    Now that makes me wish to get this board. With such features and no CB, and a pretty down to earth price, I say Gigabyte should add it in all their boards,
    EVGA Classified (MSI XPower), 980X (i5 661, i5 680, i7 950, E8600, QX9650, E8400), Thermalright Venomous X , Kingston Hyper X 2000Mhz, MSI 480GTX (5870, 4870x2, Visiontek 3870 x2, XFX 8800GT w/HR03GT), DELL E248WFP, CM Silent Power Pro 1000W, Seagate 1TB + 1TB + 500GB+500GB, Auzentech X-Plosion, CM Bench Station, AL 641, MX 518, New G15 Keyboard

    We have a policy of sharing golden chips, Steponz havent yet come forward to do it hence the negative remark from Kal....We all are pissed off at him,

    Lol, I think you miss the point of hating, hating is when you want what is on someone elses plate, and I'm quite happy with my meal thanks

    In fact, hating is an excellent description of your normal attitude mate,

    me? Im just an a$$hole by nature, and I best stop derailing steps thread, sorry dude

    Gah, sad tone guys...
    I am a bit stuck in the middle here.... I disagree with yp as for the "sharing" policy... I think it should be more open, but looong talk, not for this thread...
    Be that MSI' Extreme Afterburner, or GBT/ASUS/MSI BIOS'....

    Best wishes for Steponz.
