Never mind my question about your moterboard version. I installed HW Monitor last night and low and behold it identified my mobo as a a8n-slir as well. I'll post a screen shot later this weekend. Are the screen shots you posted after you had been gaming for a while? I would be very...

very cool, I thought so. Sorry about not getting to your pm during game, but I didn't see it until I alt-tab'ed back to desk top after a round. I think there is a way to play inside x-fire but I not real proficient with it. Thanks for the screenshot posts. Very nice. I'll have to do the...

Do you use any of the ASUS utilities? Probe/AI Boost/etc? What, if anything, do you use to control cooling on your GPU (i.e., Speedfan, Rivatuner, etc)?

Oh, I see. That makes sense. You are correct in that you have to take everything out to replace the chipset cooler. Be very careful when pinching the back of the push pins together and pushing through the Mobo. I unfortunately was not careful enough and damaged some of the circuits which then...

Very cool. Cable management is something I think everyone struggles with. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and I do believe it is true, especially with inside your pc. In your specs it says you are using an aftermarket cooler for your chipset, but from the picture I can see the...

I love my Artic Freezer 64 Pro. The only thing is is that at 100% it is a bit loud. This was not a problem for my stock. Tried to use the q-fan but that had trouble at lower rpms (reading 0 rpm below ~1000) so I use speedfan and it works great. I got it for around $30-35. Also, a little...

cpu cooler does not interfere with ram, but not a lot of space b/w them. cpu idles around 38 and 42 under load. chipset estimated at 35. and gpu idles at 42. I played a few hrs of BF2 and get ~75 ave fps 102 max. How are things working out with the 4670? What upgrades were u considering?
