I got my new MB last night, along w/ a few fan grills, filters, and the infamous Arctic Silver 3!!! I went over to a friends house and we assembled everything together. I got the EPoX 8K7A+ mb w/ raid.... AMD 761 chipset (better than the sis 635 i was runnin on before) It runs like a champ! - Louder than hell, but still... runs like a champ! i checked my temps last night and at bootup the CPU was at 27C and the case was at 18C... i checked it about 30 min later, and the CPU was at 31C and the case at 21C.... much better than previous temps.... I'll post pictures of it later - i spent lots of time organizing my cords and such... The AS3 really does a nice job and lowered my temps a lot. ITS ALIVE!!! - now i get to mod it to hell and back! wish me luck! 1 problem.... i got a few fan filters to put over the intakes, and put them on, but it really only cut down on the airflow, and didnt bring much air into the case at all... so i took them off
oh yeah.... forgot to put stats on the puter....
