I just went out to my local computer parts dealer, where I had earlier ordered an Asetek Vapochill Extreme Platinum Edition phase change cooler. Along with that, to maximize my overclock, I bought another 2GB's of HyperX PC4300. I must say, the Vapochill is AWESOME! I got my 6800U's to 530/1261 from the earlier 520/1250, but I might OC it some more. My FX55 is now at 3.57GHz. The average temperature is around an unbelievable 5?C! AND I have plenty more room for overclocking.

Guys, I decided to return the Triple Phase Change b/c I didn't want to spend so much money (890$ to be exact) for a cooling system. My Athlon 64 clock came down around 0.2GHz (even though it could have been more if I had pushed the Athlon farther with the phase change) and my 6800's went down around 70MHz for core and 40MHz for memory. :( Oh well. I guess my system is good enough for now, eh?

At least I'm still beating Turbo!  B)

I OC'ed up to 3.6GHz on my FX55 using VapoChill. I could have easily taken to to around 3.8~3.9 and still kept a temperature of around ~5-15?C. Then, I guess we shall both have FX57's. Anyways, my HyperX will easily overpower your OCZ and my 6800U's will be even faster. Just wait till I buy the 6850U.  B)

Let the wars begin!

Crap man...  :wacko:

Send some of that drug money my way!

Nice OC on everything, but do you think you can keep that up with 2 videocards when you get your SLI up?
