My broken down 1950Pro is still awaiting repair. All the SMT caps are bulged...I'm waiting on my buddy to hook me up with the needed parts for the repair

Congrats Simfreak47; the 8800 GTX is a monster of a card.

thlnk3r: you are going to post a work log for that right? I think Hueristic might have posted a few pics on the subject a while ago, but I am too lazy to look right now.

(I am taking the MPRE in about two hours. That is, the Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination; essentially, the "ethics test" for lawyers. I must pass it before I can take my bar exam.)

five weeks Man they really don't want any new lawyers any time soon. That is a long time to wait for results especially when you have to wait for that to take the Bar exam.

Not really; many law firms are downsizing. What is worse, since I want to go into a District Attorney's office, I cannot even start applying for jobs until I am admitted to the Bar. (Private practice, you usually get a tentative job, and it is made permanent once you pass.)

Well, I reseated my CPU cooler today to try and lower my temps a bit and I got a peek at the IHS. Apparently the stepping of my 185 is CCBBE...One of the better steppings out there...And yet I still can't get it over 2.9 GHz stable... Hopefully this reseat does some good...

If you suspect an inefficient cooler, try shimming it to increase mount pressure. I have found that shims can make a difference of up to 3º C on a loose cooler.
