Lesson Learnt

Learnt a valuable lesson that budget boards should not be pushed to the extreme.

I was greeted by a rather burnt looking board today as it cooked the VRMs when I was pusing for 4ghz

Im now systemless till my M4A785TD-V EVO arrives tomorrow, I nearly went for the Crosshair III but I have no use for Crossfire.

Pics to come once Ive stripped it.

I'll be at home in an hour or so I'll sort some pics then

No such thing as VRM cooling on a £55 board

thats the back of the board cant see much from the front on the pic. At least it gives me an excuse to get something that I drop a second card in to fold on
