Heh, sorry I should have identified myself but oh well. You know it's me now. :cool:

*Well it would be if it was real, and there weren't any other charities other than the "Raymond Price fund"

incedentally, can you see the bend in the mobo underneath the cpu? anyone got any suggestions for what this might be? I've tried loosening the supports for the cpu waterblock with no effect, could it be the placement of the mobo mounting points? I seem to remember having this problem with my current machine with an asus star ice before (and because) I went for water (dreadful HS)..

Just noticed that it looks like the block is sat on top of some of the capacitors around the CPU socket, is it? That may be why your temps are high...

Great thread-it's got me hanging on like a good soap opera!

Last time I was so hooked someone shot JR!

matt100 · 31 Aug 2005 at 16:50

lol..

updates tonight with luck.. might have the psu installed and if it's all in the lid can go an and you can all see how it looks properly!

All I've had to worry about then is some uv lighting and clocking the crap out of it

I wish OcUK did UV lights.... or am I blind?

Anyway, a quick question about the fan that comes with it, any good? Loud? Broken? Smell funny?

UV light won't help you even if you are blind.. dunno about the stock fan, never used it as it comes on a molex rather than 3 pin, too messy.

I will of course clock it.. and it's taken this long because of a) bad planning and b) not being all that arsed to get it working.. patience, the next updates will be finales.. spent too long watching a program about pete doherty tonight to be bothered with it.

I prefer to call it.. organic, rather than a farce (yeah thanks monkeydrawers :rolleyes:

)

What's this about UV lights not helping blind thing-stuff? I asked if OcUK have them for when I do my cube, but it's looking like it'll be next year before I'll be able to do it. (I'll have to wait until about this time next year to get my DT project back :mad:

Well it's not really your fault, I blame the PSU.
