    Gosh dernit! Assistance required

    Also for the most part the newcastles are considered to be a bit better overclockers anyway. They are a newer core and have enhancements to the memory controller. Granted its not the newest those would be a winchester or a vinece or one of the other new cores which are considered to overclock...

    AMD A64 vs. Cell(PS3)

    Just a thought from reading but it would seem to me like possibly instead of seeing a CELL stuck on ur motherboard it would more likely end up being stuck on ur video card (or at least some variation of it).

    Winphlash and Epox 8RDA+ ?

    First thing I would try is taking everything apart and make sure all cards, cables and cords are seated correctly this includes RAM and CPU then after its all together I would CLEAR the CMOS and start it up and see if there is a prob. If that doesn't work I would reinstall the nForce drivers...

    What's the Best Temp Monitoring Software?

    Actually Motherboard Monitor is still a very good program. I still use it on my rig in my sig. Even though they havn't updated it you can still select and change which monitors you use. Its just a matter of tweekin with it a bit. Give it a try!

    Asus A8N-SLI Chip set replacement fan?

    Anybody have any idea about a waterblock to fit on this thing. Honestly I wouldn't even care if I had to epoxy it at this point. If I mix in enough Artic Silver in with the thermal epoxy I will be able to get it back off again. I like danger den's block but .... i can't find any demensions...
