I installed a Zalman VF-900Cu and RAM heatsinks on my SC 8800GT. I also installed Koolance BGA ramsinks and Microcool mini-ramsinks on all of the mosfets and other components on the board (including the one mosfet on the back). The VF-900Cu was installed with Arctic Ceramique, and all of the...

The "in-store pick-up" does not become available until the end of the checkout process. But it is available. I just picked the last one up from the Fry's in Campbell.
Thanks OP!
Thanks for the confirmations everyone. I'm anxious to hear some type of official response to this.
I'm gonna strap a Zalman VF900Cu on this, with ramsinks, and sime microcool mini heatsinks on the mosfets. This should drop temps quite a bit.
I got my Fry's EVGA 8800GT for $229. This is supposed to be the standard, non-overclocked version of the card. However, when I checked the GPU and Memory clock speeds, they match what the EVGA SC version of the card (GPU = 650, Memory = 950). Can anyone else confirm this?
Also, the fan...
I just spoke with another Fry's rep (Ashley, who was extremely nice!). She confirmed that yesterday's order of EVGA cards did NOT come in. They also have no new anticipated arrival dates.
I tend to agree with the others who said that Fry's will likely not fill these orders, since they can...

Talked with a Fry's rep (Lynn) about an hour ago. The shipment hasn't come in yet, but they still expect it today. Lynn also said that the shipment is large enough to fill *ALL* of their backorders.
Waiting unpatiently...
I'd like to be able to remove the N/B and S/B heatsinks, to replace the TIM with AS5. After unclipping both heatsinks, I was unable to budge them. I tried twisting them back and forth (using quite a bit of force) as well as trying to pry them off the board. When I tried to pull them off the...
Although that is what makes sense, I don't think this is the case. My HS base went from mountains to a mirror, with minimal temp improvement. I now think it has more to do with how incredibly effectice AS5 is.
First off, I'll say that I'm new to lapping. However, I did read several of the better lapping guides and combined the best procedures from each of them into my own procedure. I'm also familiar with machining and using tools, so I'm not a total newbie at working with metal.
If you've read any...
I plan to lap my SP-94 HS. As part of the procedure, I plan to rinse the HS after each grade of paper. My questions are as follows:
1. Will rinsing off the HS cause rust or discolorations on the base/fins? (and yes I plan to polish the base with Arctic Ceramique, but I'm more worried about...
I did install both the SP94 and AS5 exactly according to their directions...twice, since I wanted to figure out what the optimum amount of as5 is, to make a perfect circle that coves most of the CPU. I'll do the finger test to see how hot the HS is during testing.
What is an 'IHS'?
Thanks!
I just installed an SP-94 Heatsink, to replace my Swiftech MCX4000. I am using this to cool a 3.0C (running at 3.6) on an ABIT IC7-MAX3. I'm using a 92mm Thermaltake smartfan, at 3000rpm, pushing about 52cfm of air. The temps that I'm now getting are only 1 or 2 degrees better than the...
Wow, thanks for all the info everyone. I'm going to try a few of your suggestions and see how it goes.
However, I don't think this 3.0C will get to 3.6 with full stability though. And I'm not willing to go over 1.60 vcore with this crappy, overvolting, voltage-fluctuating...
But if the system is TRULY stable, shouldn't it be able to chug away at both programs without errors??? My only thought is that maybe the two programs conflict with eachother in some way??? At least that's what I'm hoping- then I can o/c even further ; )
Hi,
I have a question that I hope some of you guru's can answer. I'm trying to test my system stability by running a Prime95 "Torture Test" coupled with a SuperPI calculation of 32M digits. (P4 3.0C @ 3.6GHz, various voltages; ASUS P4P800-D; 1G Corsair 4000PRO; WD Raptors in RAID; etc...)...

1. YOu have a p4p800 as I do. You lose PAT after 200 mhz fsb. There is a hacked bios by BigToe over at ABXzone that enables you to access PAT over 200 mhz.
A hacked BIOS- that sounds kinda scary???
2. The next step is to vmem mod your board. It's very easy to do and I was able to get...
Thanks for the replies, guys! But now I have a few more questions...
1. Do you have any ideas why the PAT/MAM isn't working when it's set to 'ENABLED' in the BIOS? I have a revision 1.1 board and thought that, as long as I used 1:1 dividers, I could enable the MAM.
2. Also, the RAM wouldn't...
Hi!
This is my first post here, I'm really hoping you guru's can help me out...
I just upgraded from Corsair TWINX1024-3200C2PT to Corsair TWINX1024-4000PRO to increase my overclocking potential as well as be able to use a 1:1 divider and enable PAT/MAM. Prior to replacing the memory modules...
