Hey Tanka, why are you running at such a low OC? You should hit 3.6ghz with low temps on your HSF. I was able to get 3.4ghz with the stock HSF.

I probably could go higher with quite good temps, but the shop that build the comp for me offers a warranty for a 3.2GHz OC so I guess it'll have to stay there until warranty is over, although they'll probably allow me to OC it higher for short amounts of time, but for general use it'll be at 3.2GHz or less. Whens your build going to be done? You'll have some nice watercooling for your 920 :D

If you OC it and then just underclock it before it breaks they'll never know =P

Like they'd know after it breaks.
Isn't possible to see someway the clock history of a CPU? I believe that I read somewhere about that info being stored in the CPU, like a print is being left as it is OC:ed

A system builder is unlikely to have such an advanced tool. And the chip manufacture isn't going to question the retailer.
Reset your bios via the jumper. Pull your battery out. You're safe.

You B!tches are thread jacking. But I am happy this place is getting active. Maybe this build will bright the community together.

Don't you mean bring the community together? (Unless you want to brighten us with NZXT goodies :p)
I reckon the guys don't have any CPU monitoring software, but I want to stay honest with them. They have a great shop/business, and are among the best (if not the best) PC builders in NZ. They even have awesome distributor relations allowing them to get in ASUS Mars GTX295s! (Which cost around $2500NZ or around $1300US Each :o)

LOL I am going to have to rename this thread: Welcome to the Member's Build Forum.
Is it just the 4gb of GDDR3 that makes it so amazing? I would take 3x 4890

Update system is up and running working on the OC. We can boot at 5.0ghz, but doesn't last very long, gotta work with voltage.
Did Super Pi 1m in 9sec.
