Looks sweet!
Thanks Halo, No, It is Not a 3.33 GHz Box 980X CPU (which All have a B1 Stepping with a 25X Unlocked Multiplier), It is an Intel Confidential 3.076GHz Q3QP ES (which has an A0 Stepping with a 24X Unlocked Multiplier) that I bought at a Very Reasonable Price (Compared to the 980X Box CPU's) on Ebay. I have seen/read about Very Promising Overclocking Results using These A0 Stepping ES CPU's, But We'll find out how it works with My EVGA X58 SLI Classified on Air First, Then Chilled Water, and Ultimately back on Phase Change Cooling. In the beginning, I'm going to Start out by using just One Stock Air Cooled EVGA GTX295 and 6GB of Corsair TR3X6G1866GTF G Elpida Hyper IC Memory, and Then if everything Looks Good, I'll start looking for Graphics Card Upgrades.

Very interesting, I keep wanting to go for one of the 2.4Ghz ES's, but I keep convincing myself to save up for my pots from KP. Looks like an excellent plan though. Do you only have one 295? I was thinking you had sold them both.

I Sold My Two Water Cooled GTX295's Last Year, But I've still kept One Stock GTX295 to use on my 759 Classified (Even then I had to send it back for an RMA Twice in the past two Years, LOL!). That's What I Hate about Multiple Graphic Card setups, There's ALWAYS One that eventually goes out (At Least on My Systems  ), and Now I'm Looking at purchasing 3 or 4 GTX580's that I'll probably have to take apart and install Water Blocks if the EVGA Hydro Copper Models aren't available and at a comparable price tag.

Need a block for that 295? I have an extra Koolance just sitting here. Edit: assuming it's a Dual PCB that you have.

Thanks Halo, I do Appreciate the Offer, But as I mentioned before, It Looks to Me like only ONE GTX580 Hydro Copper will more than likely Equal BOTH of My Old Dual PCB GTX295's with the AquagraFX Water Blocks as far as Graphics Card Performance and 3DMark Vantage Scores, and Also the Undeniable Fact that I can't run 3DMark 11 with the GTX295's (Directx 10 Only!) Looks like I'll be selling My remaining Dual PCB GTX295 and Finding/Purchasing an Air Cooled GTX580 + Water Block or an EGVA Hydro Copper GTX580 that is Probably going to Cost Me More than the Hexa Core ES CPU I just Bought!

Ouch. I know what you mean though. My first run with the 580 and it was all stock and I was already pushing 29k without GPU Physx. It's just crazy.

Excellent question. Btw, if any of you guys are interested in a pretty damn good EVGA 295 dualie with a Heatkiller WB, let me know. It doesn't have a warranty though, it's the bstock card. For anyone else it'd be pushing $200, for you guys I'd do $175 or so though.

I'm thinking next month. Gonna be dumping some hardware soon. Cosmos S - ~$140 I think 1x GTX 295 - $150ish prolly 2x Heatkiller 295 blocks - $40-50 each I think 2 Sirus headsets @ $90-100 each 1 Steelseries headset @ $60-70 1x Logitech G15 keyboard @ $40-60 Possibly a GTX 260 HC or a GTX 460. May have to RMA the 260 and then I would sell the RMA card. - ~$80-100 Total max income projected - $~840 I'm thinking I'll go with a Tek 9 Slim and a F1 Gemini 2.0 right now. I may also end up dumping a few misc. WC parts though. Edit: lol woops I read Hallow as Halo in your post Nateman.

To Tell the Truth, I Like running My Overclocked Rigs 24/7 which is Why I Never thought too Much about Dry Ice or Liquid Nitrogen. I remember I had a Few discussions awhile back with Kingpin about the reasons why I had not used those Cooling Options, But You Never Know................

You should frankenstein those 3 phase units into one mega unit.  Funny You should say that, because a while ago when I was working on one of the Vapochill LS Units, I Suddenly Got this Crazy Idea in My Head (Again).........Something in the way of using One Vapochill LS on the CPU, and another Vapochill LS on the Graphics Card GPU, But First I'll wait and see what the results of the CPU and Graphics Card GPU on Air will be. BTW: Just After I had that Crazy Phase Change Cooling on the Graphics Card GPU Idea and since the ES CPU should be here at the End of this coming week (and After You Posted Me to "Do it") I Decided to "Bite the Bullet" and Ordered that 03G-P3-1595-AR Classified Ultra from Newegg which is guarateed to be here in three days by UPS Ground. I said it Before in the Past, and I'll say it again..........Overclocking is Just like a Drug Habit! LOL!
