I am looking to overclock the new rig i'm building with iy 930, ddr3 2000 6gb, evga x58 sli classified. I was thinking of getting a mainboard waterblock, but not sure if its worth it to get the full mainboard block that does nb, sb, and vreg. Or a cheaper block that does just the nb/sb?
Looking to overclock my processor. Is watercooling the vreg necessary or just nb/sb?

It can be a good idea for longevity, NB/SB deffo need doing so tbh fella you might aswell get a NB block.
Not sure where you are based but I really do not rate the EVGA boards. Much better money to be spent with Asus, MSI or Gigabyte.

You've got to admit that the EVGA Classified boards are great for overclocking..

I do hope that was humorous. If not then....
Firstly let's start with its younger sibling, the X58 micro.
And then we can move onto the mighty Classified.
Now either English people know how to overclock better than Americans or our reviewers are just honest and not bribed off.
EVGA bios is bloody terible and it clocks no better than other boards on the same cpu but it will actually work out to be a lot harder.
Proffessionally from what Ive seen Id never tell some one to buy an EVGA. The other manufacturers all offer more and cheaper, with better after sales and better reliablity.
EVGA are the new DFI and will probably end up in the same place.

Dunno man. People are just utterly brainwashed with EVGA products. Now I can understand it from the Americans because hey, the company is American and all, but any one else really should know better.
Me = £350 680i only to be told a few months later the VRMS were poop and it wouldn't support 45nm quads? = not very bloody happy AT ALL. I was offered NOTHING by EVGA to ease the stinging pain either.
