The guy said that this pot is designed for Dice and LN2.

Yeah, but thinner pots are better for DICE. That doesn't mean an LN2 pot won't work with it, just that a DICE pot is better for it.

But hell, if you can get LN2, it doesn't really matter, does it? lol.

hi folks, I admit I feel a bit left out all this dry ice/ln2 stuff I just got simple wind power:). Just an update on my windpower 5 ghz attempts...I have a tpower i45 as I said earlier to replace the 680i that got me here...massive difference. Learning curve is steep, many settings I knew nothing about on a nvidia board. I got it up to 5.030 mhz and 560 fsb so far but mostly by manipulating the few voltages etc I did know already or figured out, but have literally had times I couldn't boot at much over stock and after hour(s) or at least many minutes realizing some voltage or setting was different than before that I either changed and forgot about or a reboot on a failed overclock caused the bios to reset the setting itself. Anyways it seems quite promising, just a very nasty lack of minute voltage steps the 680i had in abundance to work with, and of course the lack of memory dividers and options that board had...but I do have this screenshot since I didn't get one of the 5 ghz plus to show my efforts:)

I assume this is in reference to me right? Yes, but it wasn't just that, it was a few memory timings and other vtt reference voltages and other things I didn't even have on my nvidia board that seemed to completely hose this thing if you set them wrong...now I came up with somewhat of an idea of what it wants...and the boot which I'm currently on and writing to you from is with this fsb ...

sorry, never got my pic posted, pc froze up lol, wasn't quite enough juice to keep it happy I guess:). Still tweaking my voltages but seems it's better now...ok nevermind it did upload, when I first pulled up this page it didn't show the screenie picture...weird, anyway I'm psyched this thing practically has no fsb limit!

He said he would ship it tomorrow.

Dry Ice is a 15min drive from here.

I think I'm going to go ahead and buy the board in the morning. But I WILL have to wait to get my chip next week:(

Then when the QX9650 comes in I'm going to sell it!

It's still a DAMN GOOD CPU! One might say it would be better to buy another board for it than to upgrade to what I'm doing....IDK

I'm going to use the money for video cards.

Kool.

I'm wondering if I should go ahead and order my board. Then order my CPU on monday.....

I do hope someone picks up the qx9650 quickly, it should be a c1 which hits 5.0ghz with ease.
