[TranceJunkieXL]

Wow. Nice OC on that PC2700.<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0"> Nice to hear you got what you wanted.<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Nice job! I too am very happy with the overclocking of my Asus, though mine is not the deluxe.

[killas1moBrandt]

yeah I would like to get some matched sticks of ram but hey.........Im ok at the moment with what I have. The next big ticket item I want is a new vid card (was thinking of a 9800 pro) and two raptor 10,000 rpm SATA drives for raid. Hey its only money right! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0">

[BAM!]

killas.. i am very happy to hear that you're completely satisfied with your A7N8X. didn't i tell you so!! ? <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif" border="0">. even so. that's a very amazing job of overclock with that pc2700<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif" border="0"> i don't know how you did it.. but great job. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif" border="0"><BR><BR>i think personally, for me, my next upgrade will be a 9800 xt and then a swiftech water cooling kit. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif" border="0">.. this aircooling is just ain't cutting it right now. still too hot!!

[killas1moBrandt]

WTG Brandt!

Bam, I agree with you. I'm not satisfied any more with air and I've been thinking about water cooling as well. Is Swiftech the best water cooling kit you can get? How much are they? Does anyone else have recommendations on water cooling?

[GNXtreme]

I have read a bunch of reviews and Swiftech is almost always at the top...Danger Den is also a very good company for water cooling products...the price is also comparable to Swiftech.

[Ginsu543]

I just talked to rithem today, and he says that water cooling doesn't really help oc'ing at all. Apparently Colin had a tough time trying to oc with water cooling. That is why he went for the Prometia. Now I don't know... maybe I should just opt for a Vantec Tornado like some of you and max out the air cooling. I know I can't afford a Prometia anytime soon.

[GNXtreme]

Ginsu you seem to be doing just fine with the OC you have now...no need to increase the noise.

[Ginsu543]

Haha! Yeah, I know. But I've been feeling a bit left behind with all these guys going for Athlon 64 and all... I've never been able to break the 2.3 GHz barrier and I'm wondering if I can eke that out of my system or not. I've been able to get 2.25 GHz stable with the cooler weather, so I'm almost there! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">
