I was reading back thru your post Bill, and had a question:

And be sure you have trustworthy thermocouple and temperature monitors.

Not sure what you mean about a "thermocouple"? can you give an example?

As for the "Temperature Monitor" I am currantly using the asus probe software that comes with the chipset drivers, that came with the board. still being set at standard levels, my CPU, and Chipset run around 95-100 deg.

as for liquid cooling:

when I was mentioning a Thermocouple i was refering to the electronic thermometers you can attach to devices other than your motherboard, such as your video card, memory and hard drive. Something like this thingy as a quick example. Like I was saying, if you are going to start playing around with overclocking your hardware at all, temperature management should be one of your biggest concerns. Not only just to keep your hardware from frying itself, but quite literaly, the cooler the hardware is, the faster it will run. I'll have to see if I can find the link to a guy who piped liquid nitrogen into his box... people get crazy with this sort of thing!

thanks for the link. I saved it in my save to buy later cart/ lol

I wouldn't doubt it on the nitrogen, I've seen the refridgerated modles for 900.00 8O

thanks much.
