Cant' wait to see how this turns out. Did you get you a dice pot yet?

Not yet... I'll be tied up with air then water before I get to dice, besides.... gotta buy this stuff a bit at a time.

This is great news Jeffro buddy. :D

WHAT THE BLEEP!!! Man I am jealous. 955BE, 4870x2!!! Can't wait for this. we needed some AMD love around here and I am still a good 2-3 months away from it.

LOL... Well this is just a stepping stone until I go to the i7 975. It will take a lot out of this system before i'll be able to call it AMD love as i've never been a big AMD fan myself.... but we'll see! I don't think it will come close to what you have in that 920 but ya just never know. I am a little excited though. :D

Your going to have fun with that system I guarantee it. Get the hang of the overclock then get a pot and DICE the hell out of it.

I do plan on doing just that. :D

Out of curiousity: why the triple channel ram kit? I saw some good kits of low voltage 2x2gb DDR3 in the 1600mhz range on newegg.

Just so i'll have something to start with when I move to i7. I've also got some 2x2gb corsair 1600 lying around here to play with.
