Also got a question. For the stock class you say no temps below ambient. Now I have a wall A/C unit and our house also has central air, so basicly I can get my room to stay at about 60 degrees, would this be considered outside the rules for the stock class?

A question like this should be asked in this thread.

http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.p...25#post4530725

ambient

adj : completely enveloping; "the ambient air"; "ambient sound"; "the ambient temperature"

So, yes, if you can keep your entire room, (not your PC case) at 60f, then it is well with in the rules of this competition.

4907 487/453 on water. untweaked.

5045

7600GS - 480/460 MHz
930D @ 4.50 GHz


Good luck everyone !!

reserved for my scores

so for coolbits score with oc of 423/455
o5=4273

but i think cpu is playing a part here

edit 480/455=4499 and climbing.... but i think 500/455 gave artifacts and a crash, i must get more fans!!!

edit
max with big fan is 490/463=4575

Died a happy overvolted death
