everything but the GPU made a good connection.  The ram was still crappy on this card.  I am up to some stuff this evening.  Maybe actually fire up my computer...

Get used to that.  it ALWAYS happens.  By the time you get the hang of things, you run out of dice.

Yea, Nate..has everything to do with it.  I must have taken my 295's apart 10 times each just to get the pads right so the GPU would make contact with the water block.  Had to be just right.  Hallowen had the same issue if I remember correctly.  Pads might be too thick.  I forget who gave me this link, but they said they were thin enough that the GPU made good contact.

GPU might be a problem, but the RAM was a big concern of mine.

i would get the gpu sitting evenly first... because it happen to me as well...once i fixed it..scores shot back up to 1250-1260 memory
single card though.
(provided they aren't messed up from over heating or hard core artifact-ing)

Finished all my insulation.Eraser and neoprene(and i will add paper towels when i am about to bench). I will put pics up later. Also, my little bench table seems like it will work really well. I have one dillemma though. The mounting screws for the cpu pot are about 1" too short, so i will have to make a trip to the hardware store to get some longer ones. Oh yeah; and DFI is retarded and put a mobo mounting hole under the heatpipe from the nb to sb and i can't get a screw in it. Fail. lol
