Foxconn Bloodrage in the hizouse!
 
Babysitting till about 5, so no playing with it today. Tonight I have to get a PCMark run on the 555BE then I will get the Foxconn hooked up and put the 920 under water.

Corsair 750W PSU
3x1GB Kingston HyperX t1s 2000 cas8
300GB vrap
920
4890, 9500GT, 2x 7600gt and x800xt incoming.

Have to RMA my supertalent ram, and looks my 150GB raptor that cooked got upgraded to a vrap. Looking for a second 150 for it now for some raid 0 awesomeness.

(yeah I know SSD would be better, but for same price I get 2 hdds and about 20x the storage :) )

Hope to have a major boint push underway this weekend

ekk no more Foxxcon MB's for me after BlackOps, I hated that board so much its in my sisters machine for her 24/7 rig.

Neuromancer 03-05-2010 05:15 AM

I loved my Foxconn A79A-s.. was a bit frustrating at first.. but once I got the jist of it... I have yet to use a better AMD clocking board.

I just opened the package (I bought it on XS from mk-ultra) to my surprise a nice message was written on the box


OC Alliance is going down!!!

xtremesystems FTW :d !!

LOL

guess I will make sure and get this board setup tonight :)

If you can PCIE mod it, these little effers are extremely efficient in 2D benches. Best of luck mate.

Neuromancer 03-05-2010 05:56 AM

Yeah my cousin said a couple of her friends have a PC shop right down the street from me, so I am going to see if they would do the PCIE mod for me. I don't have a 15W iron and would be afraid I would cook the SMD.

But yes when I purchased it, that was my intention from the get go :)

Really I had the BlackOps and the BloodRage and both behaved like a champ under LN2. Never had an issue. And YES I LOLed at the box!

HTFO.... is that a small pot that comes with the board?

Neuromancer 03-05-2010 07:22 AM

Yup, comes with water block and POT for the chipset :)

ReverendMaynard 03-05-2010 07:25 AM

unfortunately the chipset POT is pretty much as useless as a nipple on your elbow.

Neuromancer 03-05-2010 08:15 AM

Well I will try it out anyway :)

Side note.. only found two packs of kneaded eraser at the art store... was just going to use vaseline, but not looking forward to the clean up. Is there something else I can use that I might be able to pick up elsewhere?

FACE 03-05-2010 08:27 AM

Try an old lady store like Michael's or something similar. The art stores around here only had the small packs, but the old woman craft store had 12 packs of the big....

Thats where I got the 2 packs from (I did not my sister picked them up for me)

Gunslinger 03-05-2010 09:40 AM

Hobby Lobby sells them. Hell, Walmart might even have them in the school supply section.

MaadDaawg 03-05-2010 03:12 PM

I get my eraser at JoAnne's Fabrics :taunt: it's next door to MicroCenter, how convenient is that!! :laughing:

Neuromancer 03-05-2010 03:20 PM

Ahh sweet. I will be passing their on my way to Wally World to get the high % Alcohol :) got my Fx'ed

Gutterz 03-06-2010 02:31 AM

I always use Clear nail polish, then use some foam old mouse pads work good.

Kriztoffer 03-06-2010 04:03 AM

Congrats!! I kind of miss my bloodrage, I was not into modifications back then... I miss it:(

Neuromancer 03-06-2010 10:34 AM

Yeah trying to decide if I should attempt the mod myself tonight or not... maybe grab so GPU boints :)
