Thanks Q, as far as looks I stopped caring when I made my sled, since that I've never looked back. Hoping it enough to hold me over till I get a Tek-9 Fat or a 5870 lighting.

Did you ever pick up the Tek-9, if so how long was the wait? I'd have to say with the 480 on Ln2 you'd be looking at some serious boints.

 
Waiting for the tek-9 fat boy.  Ordered last week.  I expect it anytime now.  Just another thing to learn.
 
Well time to go pick-up the LN2.  Of course it has to be pouring rain today!

Yea, its disgusting outside!

If you could share some internals pictures that would be be sweet! Never seen the inside of one yet.
 
Good luck with your Ln2 session

thats what i would have thought for the IOH. but with 1.2 scores went down so i dont know what to think
 
also have you got any insight as to why my CPU score went down buy 1500 points when i added the second and third card?

Well, LN2 was going good....passing vantage cpu tests @5.4ghz @1.7v.....and getting cpu scores (non-physx) of almost 49000.
 
BUT....now my 480's are not working.  They bomb any 3d bench with stock clocks and voltage.  Tested individually, and they do the same.  Nothing comes together when you want it to.  So not to waste LN2 I just did a quick cpu-z.

what what...q56 was solid at 5.4 ghz! very nice!!
damn near grabbed a 6 ghz as well!!

Thanks guys, but I'm bummed I can't bench my 480's.

any ideas to why that is? seems a lil strange

Who me, hellshealer?  Strange to me too. I think maybe pcie socket a little damp,lol!  I switched to pcie socket #2, which I never use, and now I got it to pass vantage oc'd @1900/2250.
 
Not home yet though.  Now waiting for the chiller to pull down temps and we'll see how it goes.
