Well.... The Achilles Heel of the 2011 chipset is the South bridge. The northbridge does get hot but the Southie can burn you. the active cooling is not the greatest in the world but you need the most cooling there for the money. All the board are nice. My favorite of those are the Rampage. Second the Sabertooth. Then the Passively cooled regular P9. While all boards are Favorites I think the Warrantee on the Rampage is my favorite too. Never know if you are gonna get burned.

I know there other ways to skin a cat, but this is how I do it. I would love to here how others test their OC's and what you do to make you feel all warm and fussy about OC'ing. This is coming for a person that has had to reinstall window because his OC killed his OS. thumb.gif

I have to confess,... I use 3DMark06 to check stability. It stresses the GPU, CPU, and the memory. I am a lazy overclocker.

I love the Sabertooth series. I have had the 990FX and now the P67 and they have been flawless. I will upgrade again if they put out a Z68 or Z77 board.

If money isn't a problem then Rampage, Sabertooth, P9X79. If it was my money Sabertooth, P9X79, Rampage only because the Rampage was made more for extreme OC'ing (Sub-zero cooling) The Sabertooth will give you 99% of the same OC'ing on air and water, and the money you save on it you can put to GPU's or a SSD.

Wow it that really from a X79 board? I know for a fact it isn't an Asus MB, they don't have a green PBC. More info please, or a link.

They amount of testing is really related to how extreme your OC is. I know most people will never put in the time I did trying to get every last bit out of my 750. The sad part is I run it at 3.8Ghz and not the 4.0Ghz. It just runs better, I never could figure out why it has this micro hanging problem with the HDD's. The more I OC the more it does it. mad.gif I know I'm not the only one that it happens too, but I never read any thing stating a reason or how to fix it. In fact I think I remember you talking a bit about how AMD's can feel more responsive do to intel's HDD micro hangs.

Put 2 strips on each side of the front all the way to the top so even the edges of the DVD drive glow, I will have a blu-ray burner here soon so i will have 2 drives:
Here it is with no flash giving you an idea of brightness

and with flash
DSC_0609.jpg
here is both side in
DSC_0611.jpg
and with flash

With the front inserts all put back in, notice how it makes it a lot harder to see the strips and also shows how well the light is disbursed in the case with no hot spots
DSC_0612.jpg
DSC_0613.jpg
DSC_0614.jpg
Next is placing the LED strips in the top of the case, will be a little harder to hide the led strips but I have ideas thus far. Let me know if you like it smile.gif

Wow that is lookin sweet. its almost scary how close to the same idea we have come. i hadnt planned on going that high on the front myself but after seeing yours i like how it looks around the optical drives. i did plan on coming down farther and back lighting the tool box cover area, there is a nice gap to let some light spill out of. im still debating on wiring my lighting to my actual top cover or lighting it from the chassis below, i want it to be more indirect than like a flashlight shining through the mesh? what do you think.

i was going to work on the lighting friday but didnt like the brightness of my leds, i was considering a strip but not so bright as the one you have, i do want to sleep at night and not just lay there wanting to play on the awesome glowing thing next to my bed. @ulitmate where does one purchase the led strips like you originally posted, they might be just what i'm looking for?

I've got the top cover figured out to where it won't shine out but be a glow inside the cover. It will be just like the front which doesn't shine out and will be a backlighting. Just gotta get all my measurements correct and placements so there isn't any dull spots. The led's that I have are really not blinding bright when placed correctly but it's all about placement. The front as you can see isn't blinding bright but more of a color wash behind the grills.

I think he got those at Pep Boys but I may have him mixed up with someone else.headscratch.gif

Justin.. I was just shining you on that Toaster thing. I'm still really interested to see where you got those lighting strips.. Brothers tell each other things.
