    worth it to water cool the chipset on evga 680i?

    Personally I see no reason to cool the chipsets. I just completed my watercoolin setup on my 680i and my system runs nice and cold. I left the stock fan on the northbridge and it keeps the MCP at 30C which is excellent. Plus when ya start cooling your chipsets ya get too much tubing in my...

    Sataii drive keeps bumped down to sata1 speed

    Did you remember to pull out the little jumper on the HD that limits it to 1.5gb/s. Pull that out and you got yourself a full 3gb/s sata2 connection.
