very nice scores! Well hopefully you get a good chip back.
I wonder who will start the new 3DM06 thread..

Im researching about some dice suppliers here in london, something I might play with someday when OCing
Bomber should start that one too.
Dice is pretty fun, LN2 scares me LOL....plus I don't feel like investing in a Dewar....also, intel chips can't take extreme cold like AMD's, but AMD's don't put out good numbers even on LN2 so whats the point. I'd probably get like 100-200 more MHZ on LN2 over DICE, big deal.

Eh, thats pushing it a bit, you'll get at least a few hundred if not more on ln2. If you search ebay, i know one guy who picked up a ~ 30l dewar for about $50+shipping. Also, with AMD chips they do shine in cold, and the real points are on hwbot, not pure benchmark scores, because they aren't going to beat intel chips, but when competing against other AMD chips...

Ganzey, there's kind of a difference between LN2 and Liquid Helium.....also, that was over a year ago, pretty sure that score has been beaten by now by an intel rig. And besides that, I was under the assumption we were talking about CPU benchmarks anyway.....the two top CPU benches are SPI for single threaded and Wprime for multithreaded benchmarks, and what CPU's hold those records?

Thats just because the compiler was geared towards intel chips, and intel chips are stronger in FP calculations.
If you're into HWbot, everything is split down by CPU or GPU, with points given on those.
At the same clocks, the I5 750 is faster than any Phenom II quad at ANYTHING. It's not just faster at ''benchmarks'' because the benchmarks are geared toward intel. I hear that all the time, what a bunch of BS. They are faster at the benches because they are faster in real applications too.

Yeah, I'm liking the fact that it's made out of all brass/copper, glad I didn't go with the Ek or Mips classified blocks

I think aesthetics, and it's sort of a heatsink over the caps.

I was thinking heatsink at first, but remembered plexiglass is a terrible thermal conductor, but it does look cool.

Got the new Xigmatek cooler in the mail off buzz1927 today, thanks for the express post!
After installation:
kind of hard to see becuase of refelction off the monitor. And it took me a while to figure out the push pins, i have never used them before
and that's a CoolerMaster R4 on the side panel, GPU not so toasty now 
It's also much quiter than the whiny 92mm fan on the Zalman i have.
Load temps are 58c now, instead of 68c (prime95) Also, the heat is dissipated faster... right after exiting prime the temps drop right back to 37c
EDIT: more pics!
