I should have gotten the 550BE like ppl suggested,

except when i was buying i only have 2 things in mind
1. TripleC use TripleCore (been talking about it for over a year)
2. Not have unlocking cores in mind

that would save me enough money for something else

I'm going to play with the multi and see if I can get more out of my ram, but I'm pretty happy with it so far. What kind of FSB are you guys getting. I'm running @ 12x254 and was just wondering the max you are seeing on this board. Also I've been able to OC the NB up to 2200 @1.4v and haven't been able to get the HTT above 2000.

EDIT: OC ram timings are 5-5-5-15 2T

Added in my system info, but I didn't use the "add system" feature, hope it's not against the rules. Also regarding the mosfets, I hackeu up an OEM AMD heat sink and used the arctic thermal adhesive to mount and it works great. I'm cheap I know.
