After 6 days of no computer I am finally back! Just so you all know if you get a liquid cooling kit make sure you check all the fittings before you stick it on your cpu!
Well I almost decided to go air cooling however I couldn't I found that that LOVED the 3.6GHz speed too much! Now I'm back better than ever! I traded in the Swiftech cooling (liquid) and went with Danger Den! So far I have to say I'm impressed and to tell you the truth total kit with everything and I upgraded a few parts (pumps, CPU block, and Chipset cooling just incase) only cost about $350.00 and at 3.6Ghz max load I"m only doing 59-61 and for the most part all my cores are at same temps that is rare! idle I'm at 39'c at 3.6GHz. Right now running Memtest to test out the new memory. Yeah NEW memory as well because the coolant that leaked before :( ruined my other one so I went with Crucial Ballistic DDR2 PC2 8500 2x1GB. Its wierd because when I just found out that one of my old sticks still work but the other is BAD due to the leak but when I try and use Cruicial and Mushkin together won't even boot. Maybe I can't? hmm... They are both same speed however Crucial is 2.0v Mushkin is 2.1v???
LSD you ready? I want to push this CPU to the max and I need your help! I know I can get to atleast 3.8Ghz since my temps are good just need some help from you :)
I'm all yours buddy!
