Yes, thats the way, with a nice clear synthetic oil so we can see the heat movement in the oil.

I got that issue yesterday... it was not really that great. Was cool but the story kind of minimalized it as if they were hard pressed to get the story done but had no enthusiasm.
MaxPc has really taken a dive these past few years and their issues become more ads and "ads in the form of a review"... the ONLY story in the past 6 months that I found useful was the windows tips and tricks for the Nov? issue.

ok guys, sorry it has taken so long but I have been tremedously busy with the work and have not had much time to really sit down and benches much as I would like to.

For now I will show some initial 3D bench to give you an idea of what is going on.

This was all done on air and I did not get the time yet to max out clocks as I am still adjusting to the "new way" intel is being OC'ed.

3D03-122K

3D05-36864

3D06-27205

Vantage-23759

Aquamark-286k

To give you an idea of the performance all these were first place scores except for 03.

I have to rma this board b/c of some issues that have surfaced. I will be getting a replacement in the next week. If anybody wants to see any other benches just ask
