Technonut, just to say I also received my two Phaze II blocks, to put in my dual Athlon setup (possibly a red MSI K7D Master-L... yum!). Are those blocks cool or what?
Yes, I have enjoyed using (and looking) at them very much. I have been testing so many rigs lately, I still have not decided which mobo that I want to install in my acrylic case.

I did find however that the 8K5A2+ only reads from the core as a factory set temperature shutdown. The readings shown above are from the socket probe. That still did not stop the Phaze2 from performing very well at 1.95V 100% stable.



I actually used the other Phaze2 & P4 adapter on another rig I am testing. I have a P4 1.8A @ 3.0 GHz in an ABIT IT7 MAX. This IS reading from the core. The under load temp at 1.79V shows as 50.5C, which is not bad considering the IT7 MAX is known to read 7-11 degrees C higher than the actual temperature.
