what vdroop mod?

I won't tell you. Because when you know, you wanna fix it, and when you wanna fix it, you go crazy.

Ignorance is bliss, enjoy it while you can.

It's when you set a voltage in your BIOS and it drops during Windows load and running tests like Orthos. Example:

Bios: 1.35V

Windows load: 1.342V

so whats the big deal?

my bios shows 1.38, and cpu-z shows 1.42, i dont care

Then don't worry about it. It's an issue sometimes if you want big over clocks.
 
Got my 8800 GTS xXx 640MB today :D First impressions- Box is HUGE. GFX card is very huge and heavy, cooler looks respectable. v a d e R` is happy :)

Picking up li-li + cooling today or tomorrow.

CPU and PSU come tomorrow.

Pictures-This weekend.

is the PCB green or black on the carD?

Unfortunately, I got the green version =\. But it's ok cause the stock heatsink covers most of it anyways and you wont be abe to tell with the red lights. Also, the green matches more with my P5K.

Some are black some are green. It's random.

Nah. NVIDIA only made a limited number of black 8800's just as a little special edition for the first buyers.

But doesn't XFX use their own black PCB? My 7600 GT xXx was black PCB and I didn't buy it when it first came out....

ANYWAYS.

Dad picked up my cooling (Yate, Arctic Fans, Lights, Ninja, adapters etc..) and my PC-7B Plus II!

Talk about pure hotness?

Interesting note: On my box it says Lian-Li PC-7 Plus not Plus II but I have the 2 120MM fans and the 80MM blowhole so it's all good :)
 
Got my final parts in today, the PSU and CPU. Many I want to build :'( ANyone know if this stepping is good:

E6600 Malay : L651B592
 
Ordered an X-Fi XtremeMusic today :)

Any advice/tips for running it under Vista 32Bit? Will I need to change/install any special programs for game 5.1 support? I'm using Logitech X-540s...need my surround sound.

Thanks!
