After taking my doctor's prescribed overclocking vitamins, it was time to do some overclocking on the EVGA nForce 680i SLI Motherboard with the Extreme Edition QX6850 Processor. The effect was tremendous, 500MHz FSB with Quad Core and over 5GHz Stable on 3D Mark 06. 25.7K 3D Mark 06 score!

Ive had so many of the rev3's that kinc and so on use could have asked me I just always figured you for a cascade guy, but as oyu know now sli/cf is all cpu then gpu when me at 4400mhz quad at 960/1280 cant beat a 4600mhz quad with cards on air in 06 you know you need to get some ln2

Ill keep an eye out for you on a good pot tho now I know you run ln2 also

cascade is good for 4.87, ln2 on my small pot for 5g, but thermal paste is too hard, i need better paste, -150c pot bios reads -100c. Fugger's gift to me, an old KingPin Rev1 pot will work really good, for easy pour once in a while, but i have to wait for the hold down to be made.
