    20 Pin ---> 24 Pin Converter

    350W by which brand? A Deer 350W PSU will most likely perform differently than a Fortron/Sparkle 350W PSU.

    Is there any danger in using a Vapochill?

    I thought that we were supposed to have the 'Big Crunch', where at a certain point, the universe stops expanding and begins to contract, and we begin to see a red-shift (Doppler Effect), as well as an increase in average temperature throughout the universe? This could have been disproven...I...

    SI-97....no good

    Have you tried reseating it and applying a fresh layer of thermal paste? More paste is not always better. Try everything before you bash the company / cooler... :rolleyes:

    text is fuzzy with AA/AF on

    Vcore lower than rated minimum?
