Got the head mounted yet

well you havnt mentioned anythin about attackin mobo's with screw drivers this time so looks like your on the right tracks 
Result!!! We haven't broken anything 
I eventually got the head mounted after fighting with an over zelous application of seal string from the Gigabyte board for half an hour but not before Bundles took some pictures of the frosty head. He seemed strangly fixated and as soon as Jokester wasn't looking he powered up the 172w pelt that he fitted to a 120.1 He started to babble incoherently and kept mentioning something about the condensor in his fridge. I dread to think what he has in mind.
Tonight with a fresh install of XP etc.. I started clocking but only got up to 2.8Ghz on the X2 3800. I need to familiarise myself with the new DFI SLI-D mobo and maybe swap out the Geil One with OCZ VX.
Edit:
More volts make no difference. Maybe time time to replace the 550w Antec.

Is it struggling already? Is it holding back the x2?Weescott said:

Possibly. 550w is the MINIMUM power required for my pc (X2 3800 and 7800GT). High overclocks might be pushing it a bit.

What's your load temps as reported in Speedfan or what ever?

Speed fan reports:
8c (fluctuates like mad)
46c
48c
2c
HDD 38c
40c
Ambient is 23c with windows open.
Condensor is -36c with fans on normal (tested)

No wonder you're having problems if your trying to cool your CPU with your condensor ya twonk, try slapping the evaperator onto it instead
Your CPU temp does seem to be high compared to your evap temp, i still don't think your getting a good contact with the chip, i would reckon you should be nudging -10 to -15c at idle. might be worth getting some arctic ceramique and applying it a shade thicker than you did the arctic alumina.

I think the bios isn't reading the temps properly.
Condensor / Evaporator, bah - it's all the same to me at 20 to 12 on a Saturday night.

I say the bios is wrong and you could do with a better windows.
I got a lovely windows disc here for benching on

Getting better. I changed a voltage option and now the board boots above 1.55v. I'm sure it's got more in it.
Ram is at 213mhz
Speedfan is working now.
CPU at -c15c

What? The fact you could only get the board to 310HTT?

Pfft, I could get it to go over, just never rock solid.

No thread hijacks thank you
Getting closer to the WR:
Edit: Arrrrgh. Got upto 3.39 which would be a new WR for a Toledo AFAIK and i couldn't get a screen grab.
