Gave it the old yankee try.. waiting for sublimatoin and swapping a c3 chip.

Sucks.. the 955 had a lot of boints in it.. not worth DIcing for 6 boints though.. especially when I can get 4 on water

Tried all kinds of settings.. this chip hates volts. at the same time.. it fails cuz its not getting the juice..(stop errors I received where 60% mem issues.. solved that.. got usb issues and file system issues)

Maybe the board sucks? dunno.

Maybe I suck? (probably)

hoping i can get my 4.6GHz water cooled c3 to 5 GHz though.. if not.. well I will be straight up embarrassed tonight



EDIT: Is it possible the DICE sucks?

I was told you are not supposed to touch it but I did.. in fact I can grab pieces of it in my bare hand as long as I dont grab it and hold it...

ok baby its on.. got the board cleaned up and considering the first attempt.. imm jamming the socket up and thats it dropping in the c3 despite the lack of boints... and going for it :)

ok wow...

my setup was so much better than stock setup OMG.. KAl you thin kthe mjollinoir was hard..

dude my thumbs hurt.

Its on though with the 555.

If it still dont clock well.. then its my fault or the pots...

Resulated reseated, got bloody and hooked it up and ... no boot.

argh

THinking AMD holds no love for me.. I should continue my win streak and try and vmod my mobo...

doubt that is going to happen though...

OMG if it was a power strip failure I will be pissed///

Waiting for pot to defrost before I try again.. I mad e a mistake and dumped the alcohol slush out and rinsed it... opps now it frosted.. ARGH

Okay reconnected everything and now it dont boot...

IE.. dont go extreme...

My first run was rough too.... You'll get the kinks straightened out. It sucks that it costs when there is a snag, but at least it's not $100+ of ln2 poured. :ohcrap:

Word.. going to watch a movie and then hit this setup again and see if I can get it to boot.

Did you ever end up trying to get that back plate off?

yeah I got the back plate off, now it does not boot.
