The Official NosBoost300 Overclocking Thread

[NosBoost300]

motherboard came in today... BEAUTIFUL piece of hardware... asus x38's are the sex no doubt.... i need to find a way to take off the chipset heatsink... but all of the copper pipes from the chipset heatsink and the northbridge and what not all connect.... hrmmm

how does the nb run hot on that.. i expect with all that cooling it runs nice and toasty but not hot by any stretch of the imagination.

 

[NosBoost300]

if i used it i'd tell ya.. lol i'm at work and won't get to touch it until i get home around 3 in the morn

and even then... i'm debating if imma put this in my case or not

the ddr3 looks sexy as well.. delicious heat spreaders

 

[Peter.Cort]

that suckssss! and why not put it in your case.. haha.

I bought it for 175 from Fugger at XS

lol...I paid same price for my mobo from surge. I love asus boards so far and I've owned mine for a decent amount of time now, so much better then 680i se <3

 

[NosBoost300]

mines ddr 3 though :-D and wifi

urs is 225 new.. mines 300

i got a spectacular deal

and ya.. the se sucks.... the 680i A1 was where its at.. you chose a dud.. lol

i'm looking into buying a q9550 when the prices drop... or even just an e8500

 

[Drizzt]

i never knew about those diffrent 680i's. *sigh* I failed. I made up for it though in my mind

 

[Peter.Cort]

well at least you didn't get convinced to buy sli 8500gt's. oh wait... yeah you did....

and jesus.. 175 for your board nos... wtf.. haha.

 

[NosBoost300]

[Peter.Cort]
