what up...Ive been thinking about water cooling my 7950 gx2 so that I can vmod it safely. Ive always been wary of water cooling because of the risk of leaks and what not but Im ready to take a crack at it. Can you h2o guru's tell me where I might get a 7950 waterblock and what I should be...

Question: A bios chip thats been flashed will retain the update even when removed from the motherboard correct? I want to flash the chip on my old motherboard and then swap it into my new motherboard (same model) so I dont have to take the mach off to swap processors. Just want to know if...

Got my new motherboard today and its a no go. Does exactly the same thing as it did with the old one. Every thing starts fine but does not post and nothing on the screen. X6800 must be toast. :( Well, back to the drawing board....

Is it possible to Vmod a 7950 gx2? Has anyone done this? I would think that both cards could be conected to a single pot (for core volts for example) to keep the resistance the same. Any thoughts?

Ive had a problem recently getting this board to post. After looking through the asus forums I found out that this is a VERY common problem. Most people can not get the board to post with an x6800 at all...swap in a pentium D and it fires right up. People have had to flash bios with a beta...

hey all...whats the minimum requirements to get into the bios? It should be just motherboard, grphics card, power supply and keyboard right? Thats what I remember it to be. thanks for the input

quick question for those of you who have done a mod on the orginal evap of a prommy. Is there any way possible for air to enter the sealed cpu area (when the kit and mach are installed) through the back of the evap head? I can't describe it better than that. Let me try again... The square...

ok...I still dont know if my x6800 is dead yet..(posted entire story under mach install/trouble shooting) My new p5n32-sli se is in the mail so I can't test the cpu yet. My question is if it did not survive the flood and I have to buy another one, what difference "preformance wise" would I see...

Well guys..Ive had nothing but bad luck with the last few rigs Ive built but I will start from the begining. I had a shuttle for lan partys and such with a 3.0 p4 (this was like 2-3 years ago) which literally cooked itself while I was shopping. Got home to a burned electronics smell (I know Im...

Hey all. Just curious if anyone has ever seen an applet out there for the G15 keyboard? Ive got all other info like cpu temp, load, ram used, ram availible, clock speed but I would like to add the evap temp to the lcd also. Let me know if you find one ;)

Ok, so I built my new rig...It has its up and down days but today it makes me want to cry. Here is the story..Got an X6800, p5n32-sli se delux, 2 gigs xms2 1066, 7950 gx2. Originally when I installed my mach II on this board and cpu I used a ton of seal string which prevented the evap from...

Ok here goes. Had a fx-60 on an A8n32-Sli. Prommy ran about -55 at idle and processor was about -30 ish. Now I have a Core x6800 on a p5n32-sli se delux. When I got the new 775 kit however, the screws that mount the head to the mobo no longer have springs. Which screws do you guys...

Ive been reading a lot on compounds but can't seem to figure out whats the best for a mach 2 gt. I had arctic silver 5 on my fx-60 but a bunch of people said that I should have used arctic ceramic some I ordered some for my new rig. Now I see that some people use Arctic ceramic alumina. Which...

Long time no forum-ing for me. About a month ago, a nasty thunderstorm knocked on my door and fried my 3 month old computer. My mach 2 gt would do its normal cooling on startup and at -35 the computer tryed to start but imediatly shut off again...mach powered down. After ripping everything...

Just tried to turn my comp on and prommy gets to -35 start temp. lights and fans kick on for maybe 1 second then shut off (pc lights and fans) then the prommy shuts down about 20 seconds later. Tried it again and this time the comp doesnt even try to kick on. Motherboard light on and nothing...
