Hey, unfortunately Q6600 is lost am pre-ordering a Q9450 now.

The cooling performance was excellent. A huge improvement over the tiny little fans I had on my chipset. I believe its possible to get around the screw problem by using something to cut off the top of the screw but still only with single slot cards. What I meant by they didn't help on 680i was that the chipset for what I wanted it for was basically inadequate. I couldn't get a stable clock high enough to require the use of the coolers.

IMO its best to use the hr-05 for the northebridge and a different copper low profile cooler for the southbridge.

Will get some pics and benches up hopefully around the 20th of march. CPU should be in stock 17 - 18. Lovely new 24inch screen too

Small update is that itll be finished soon and working! Have recived my 24inch mon, raid card, sound blaster gamer, am recieving a 74gb raptor soon too. CPU which is Q9450 supposedly gets in stock on the 18th so will probably be with me within 2weeks. Green mobo which was obviously replaced with blackish one looks alot better too.

Also 2 of my 30cm lights broke somehow internally so I gotta buy more of those... might be getting my brotehrs desk too though which is lower then mine and can put my computer udner that with space at right for the fans, so gd gd. Some of the people around the web are posting that they've gotten my board over 500FSB so with a few extra volts hopefully I can do that and get some 4ghz+ benches on the new quad. It isnt like I lack cooling

Water ftw.
