New motherboard!
At least that's not the board that was in there when I was over last week. I shoulda had you help me tweak my timings and proc speeds while I was there. Ah well, at least my baby's runnign stable.

Re: Monster Rig.
Got the XSPC Delta V3 on the CPU, works better than the Swifty APPOGEE GTZ by a degree or so and I also have a XSPC Razor full coverage GPU block for the other 4870.

Most of what I have is review samples from one web site or another...........so actual cash outlay really isn't all that much.................kylepaddock wrote:same here.

Re: Monster Rig.
It's not as easy as it sounds, it takes a lot of time and hard work to do it correctly.

Re: Monster Rig.
All my old gear gets passed down to either my son or my wife and maybe some gets sold cheap to good friends if they are in need of a upgrade.

Re: Monster Rig.
Not to mention Bio has been working on the "Monster rig" for almost four years now and it is the most viewed thread on this forum so getting him to review something for you actually has some value to the vendor as apposed just anyone writing a review based on the 2 or three CPU's they may have used. Its not as IF Bio just " gets lucky ".

Re: Monster Rig.
Having seen the box in person I have to say it's very well put together. Bio's a heck of a guy.
