My luck my 8 pin and 24 pin cables won't be in by Saturday leaving me PC-less on Sunday. Maybe the o wifey will let me bench on her HTPC. :blush:

+ a jigsaw (or even a sheetrock knife) is all you need for home grown collar.


My hold down broke early on. Here's the cutting board special:

thats epic patch

^This^ or you could whip one out of 1/2" mdf in 5 minutes, like OC and I did for that convention we did here in Tucson...worked great. Either way you can't use extreme cooling in this contest. The koolance will ship with everything you need to do extreme correctly right down to the backer board and 1/2 mobo sized foam sheet;)

Also btw, the contest BEGINS on Sunday and you guys will have plenty of time to battle it out or get the parts you need to be competitive...no worries.:clapping:

Go! Go! You such a teaser! :D

On AMD I used the plastic socket as the hold down when running hte jank pot. I put it over the existing hold down and rand the bolts down to the backplate rather than up through the hold downs.

Felt better to me

ummm ....

It's SUNDAY?

Sitting here ready to bench with no instructions... :scared:

Well, "when in doubt I whip it out, 'cause I got me a rock n roll band. It's a free-for-all."

All dressed up and no place to go? lol patience my friend
