Has anyone ever?

Post by DX »

Has anyone ever recapped a board? I have read about some crazies out there that have done that and get better performance/stability/overclocking. Just wondering if we have anyone that has done that and what their experience was when they did it.

as far as i know, yes it provides more stability, and of course higher ACHIEVABLE performance when overclocking but i dont think the cap itself give you better performance
