Ahhh thanks for the pics. I might have been able to figure out where they were if I was home. (lie) Yes I have one of those heat sinks in my junk pile. (composed of something like 15 fans, 5 big heat sinks, many a connectors, and 1000 of those stupid fan 3 pin connectors!)
Anyway, I actually have the deluxe "E" mobo. I read Kronchev's post about mobile troubles on some other board. (yes he's been two timing us). I have read that Asus boards cannot go above 12.5 with the mobile. I will find out when my chip gets here. Sadly I will have to wait till thursday
. I need to yank all the insulation off the mobo anyway as I forgot to install my thermistor. This time I am putting 2 in on each side of the top of the chip. Next to the die. You can never have too many. Besides my rig is sitting at 20 C based on mobo sensor and this way I can pretend I am colder then I really is. As they useually read several degrees cooler. So they must be more accurate!!
My next project is to wire external thermistors to the mobo (through some kind of interface) and then display them on me new lcd's. I want to have water in, water out, die, and vid displayed on it.
