Looks like cleaning the pci/dimm slots and the gpu/memory with QD electronic cleaner, some paper towels & a toothbrush fixed it, for now anyways.

Thanks alot Bones

Now I just wonder if I'll do better benching with 2x512 @ 270ishMHz 2.5-4-4-10, or if my other stuff...2x512 @ ~250MHz 2-2-2-5 will be better?

[Bones]

Good deal NY.

That's something any board could benefit from with occasional use.

Well I got a few more cpus in . Currently I am benching a 3000+E3....I managed to squeeze 3303MHz out of which is over 100MHz more than the 1st one and benching better. I have an E6 on the way to try.

The next victim though, is the Opteron 144 with a 9x multi same as the 3000+. Should be fun........ohh and 1 more Opty 146, this one is CAB2E.

I'm highly addicted, what else can I say? I'm not buying any more........in the near future.

i got a 8800gts 512mb its also my last card unless i hit the jackpot or something

[Bones]

NY, you should be getting the one I sent sometime next week.
It's the one I used for the comp and it ran really well, you should get at least 3.4+ NO PROB since it did go almost to 3.4 on H2O.

I'm betting you'll pop the top and go at least 3.5+ with this one.

[ny_driver]

I don't like doing that.
I didn't see any improvements on the last one I did before it died of the ailments it already had. Although that chip just ran so hot it was unreal when I added any volts to it. It was reporting stupid temps like 30-40C when every other chip would have been -10 at the hottest. These single cores stay below zero even with 1.85v on the chiller unless you were benching, but I wouldn't bench with those volts.........maybe 1m

[Bones]

Got those chips today and I'll test them when I get a 939 setup again.

Glad they arrived safely.

Today:
I just bought a 148..........this chip has to be a good one, hopefully. The last 2 chips I got were duds.

I can promise you the one you're getting from me isn't a dud - The one you're getting is the very one I pulled off these runs with:

http://hwbot.org/community/submissio...go_48sec_656ms

http://hwbot.org/community/submissio...in_50sec_156ms

I'm not worried about showing these to you since I know you'll beat them anyway with your better cooling setup and this should let you know what kind of chip you're getting.
This chip is fairly strong and will thrive in your capable hands.

Enjoy the chip!

I knew you were sending me a good one. Wasn't worried about that at all, but I paid $30 for the 148 so it better be good like the 146s and 152s we have.
