CPU temp is within 12c of ambient temp when loaded.

¢XC/W Value = 12c / 123.75w = 0.097(unreal because no WB can have lower than 0.20 ¢XC/W Value yet, probably because 8RDA's temp sensor is in socket instead of on diode)

Reference C/W value: http://www.benchtest.com/calc.html

What was your Northbridge voltage?

Edit Nevermind I missed it somehow.

How hard was the VDD mod to do?

and whats your Geforce clocked at for that 3dmark?
 
I used SMD Grabber so VDD mod is easy. I mess up my 8RDA+ when I tried to solder the POTS onto the mobo.

3dmarks score URL: http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=5755141

Before VDD Mod: 205mhz for FSB
After VDD Mod: 210mhz for FSB
After putting RAMSINK & 40 MM Fan on MOSFETS: 219mhz FSB

BIOS version: 8RD12C06.BIN (8RD13117.BIN is unstable for me)

This is the setting I am running 24/7 and not just for one time benchmark setup (for one time benchmark setup I can do 11.5x224mhz @ 2.15vcore but I am nervours about killing my CPU at that high Voltage so I down clock to 219mhz)
