thanks banik. Think my kids are throwing me a surprise party tonight, so no more OCing for me today :(. Got a little frustrated last night trying to run 32m at 4.2HT. And drank some more beers instead of working on it lol

I might not be juice happy enough as your PM after reading your PM, temps were reasonable so far though with the slight increases I was giving it. wprime 1024 only heated it up to high 60Cs.


As for the hammer mod I noticed when it was running that a LOT of air was gushing out the sides. More than out the back of the heatsink. My aunt got me a little birthday card from the store (real small one) I just ripped it in half and taped it to each side so the air is forced to pass all the way through the heatsink and most importantly, reach all the heatpipe connections.

It definitely seemed to help and when I next have some free time I will take the board out and redo the NB heatsink, and mod up something a little more permanent for the hammer. I would also like to get another panaflo on there And some more xigmatek fan mounts. I have a battle axe cooler sitting here un used that I took the fan mounts for.

Something that just drops over it and could double as a shroud right out the cases rear exhaust (I am sure someday it will go in a case again lol)
