Ta, Geeks FTW lol :p

Sound :) Yeah tell me about it, I spent nearly 3 hours last night trying to find tune a few different oc setup's lol. Ha-ha yeah yeah I hear ya. Installed Crysis before but cant seem to get it running yet. Its a different copy if you know what I mean ;)....

Sorry the screen shot was taken just after a 5 min run of prime. I forgot to do another during the main stress lol

Well here is my first OC attempt. POST and Windows boot was fine and I ran prime for around 30 mins.. The only issue is my temps mid 80's. Does this sound right?? or is it way to high? Thanks
