It's a sucess and Now OC with my Watercooling kit...WOO is stable and working fine.... and temp is 36C ideal and 42C on full load.
How did you get your BioStar TA790GX 128M to go above 1600 HT Link?
Their support said something about the motherboard being single power plane.
I'm using the same motherboard as you, but thought I was stuck at 1600 HT Link and 200 Bus Speed, how did you go above those? Also, are you using the newest BIOS from June 09 or January 09? Below is my overclock.

Note: I could get 4 Cores to 3.5Ghz, but would cost 1.488v on CPU.
But that does not seem worth it when I can get 3.4Ghz for 1.440v on CPU.

I have the fan mounted on the bottom of the cooler blowing up, on the right of the cooler parallel to the RAM sticks I have a piece of cardboard that I have taped to the top of my case. And to the left of the cooler (back of the case) I have an exhaust fan. So the cardboard forces the air left towards the back fan, and the back fan sucks it out of the case.
man the thermalright 120 has got some legs!

I have a top exhaust fan space, but no top exhaust fans, and I would rather it exhaust out the back anyway. But it seems you all are fine with the positioning, which is why a few pics would be golden.
