Well just to update, college is officially Florida Institute of Technology. Army ROTC is going to pay for me as well! My major will be Computer Engineering, but I'd like to take some Electrical Engineering as well, so we'll see about that.
 
I talked with Praxair again, and got quoted $110 for 160L. ( $.6875/L) I'm going to rent a 160L dewar as well, for about $1 a day. Fun times ahead, this just means I need to pick up a thermos or three. I really wish I had gotten a 3930K now, but alas. I'm gonna start with the 580 on X58 first, and try out the X5570 ES on the X58A-OC.

Great news Halo. Thought with that huge dewar plus sponsor you'd be looking at a 3960X.
:-D Good luck Dude. Keep us in the loop.
... so to speak.

Sponsor? I don't have one or a 3960X either lol.
 
I originally got the 3820 because I didn't want to pay more for a chip until 8C/16T is an option.

Looks like some kind of cnc or something similar .
Is that a stationary motor to move the drill, or is it the moving drill?
In which case, how does the house fan cool it if its moving out of the air being blown by the fan?

It is.  Still working out the bugs, but its a home made CNC machine.  The motor is stationary.

Q56, welcome back haven't seen you in a while, and I agree completely.  This was always a thread I followed very closely, unfortunately most of my clocking is still on my X58, and not extreme, just water for 24/7 stability, so really doesn't qualify here.
 
It is benching season for those of us in the Northern hemisphere, its colder now, time to swing those rads outside into the snow and crank those clocks up!!
