I decided to leave my window open for a few hours tonight while I was away doing homework, just to see what happened.
This is what I saw when I got back
This temperature reading is from this temperature sensor:
My cooling is with an XP-90 on an AMD Athlon64 3200 Venice at 9x268 with 1.5v. Let's see some other people's crazy temperatures on air cooling with this winter weather!!!

uh, yeah.... I don't think my wife (who does read the forums) would appreciate the GF comment (I know you're kidding, so am I)...... anyway, very happily married for 8 yrs.
I actually am running a Mach II GT....so thats with phase change cooling. Here in LV, winter time temps are about the same as summer time temps in the northwest or far north.

Don't get your hopes up..... come on by if you are in the neighborhood, probably won't have it set up until Fri/Sat, but you are welcome to come check it out

Will you just be testing the board or do you have an ATI master card to test Crossfire with?? Seems no-one has real benchies of Crossfire in action. The board, from what i can tell is good, but needs more Bios updates...I heard it can do 1T using 4 sticks, but only @ stock.....
I'm looking forward to readng your review!

I'll be doing both the Crossfire and the board. I suspect the board to be of typical DFI quality....as to Crossfire thats another story

I know I'm anticipating the review as well. I really can't wait to see what DFI can do with this one!
