Just get the 580 cold, and with SB, even on air/water/phase you'll be raking in the globals.

Maybe a pot but can't really get into 1366 at the moment. I'll jump in next enthusiast platform for sure.

Freeze a card. More fun than freezing CPU's.

Can't explain why. Just is.

Far more difficult as well. Or maybe even CPU was when I started but now CPU seems childs play but when I tried freezing the card, there were all kinds of problem. Have to definitely learn a lot as far as freezing GPU is concerned. OCM we can share our notes when you start, even I froze my card for the first time just a week ago with very mediocre results
Though get the Fat Kingpin pot, it seems to me my Piotres pot is not able to keep up with GTX 580 heat. Next stop for me would be that pot as well.
