> Last night I got a chance to benchmark it stock. GPU was turned back to 3.8ghz for some reason, I think the last time I flashed the bios I didn’t send it back to 4.X where I was prior to. The GPU at the stock clocks and the CPU at 3.8ghz, I hit 17965 in 3dMark06. Max temps with the 3dmark run were, 44C CPU, 38C GPU, 34C/29C 790i chipsets! I ran OCCT on for 10 mins and the CPU hit a max of 46C.

> I bumped the CPU up to 4.2ghz and +.1 volt and the GPU up to 720mhz and the shader up about 50mhz. Max temps went up only to 45C on the CPU and 40 on the GPU the rest were the same! 3Dmark06 hit 18795! I am still not 19,000+ where I was with the 4.5ghz and the cranked up 260, but I am sure I will get there. I would love to see 4.7ghz and 20,000 points. I gotta get to work I guess!

u can do it, i have a weaker setup (in some ways) and can push 18k without overclocks

nice water cooling job… looks clean !
