How about some benchmark runs w/ your tri-sli setup? Crysis?

You can afford a computer that costs more than a Comptech Supercharger + install, but you can't afford a Dewar + LN2? Please .
Nice rig by the way.

You know what, you got a point....... I think i will. Thing is, i know nothing about liquid nitrogen cooling...... I just had some money, time and a little knowledge about oc'n, and i applied it. (Think's to himself..... Need faster memory 1066, or 1333 maybe... only comes in 4 gigs tho..... hmmmmm.... better benchmarks, but less memory...... Vanguard will have to suffer, but I'll figure somthing out. YEA!!!!

Take out 2 sticks of RAM and run them at 1T command rate for the duration of the bench. I use to do that with my Dominator, but they broke, and now I'm sad because I'm forced to use value ram.

BTW, when you overclock my setup, is it best to have a higher fsb, or higher multiplier? RAM Timings, ect... Any and all advice is helpful.

Higher FSB will generally give you better scores, but there are straps to consider. Also, don't sacrifice max CPU freq to get a higher FSB.

Your oc looks nice, but your sig says your ram is stock is that true?

I think I fried them, computer won't boot up as long as those two sticks are inside.
I like 450x9 and keeping my ram at stock speed (for better timings, since I benchmark, when I'm not, i raise it 900mhz for 1:1 FSB:RAM ratio, and raise the timing to 5-4-4-12)
