I think that's the best wiring job I've seen to date. Certainly blows my last custom build away. Nice Job!

gldndragn,
Great board, cpu, psu, ram, cooler, gpu and case wiring. You've done well and having had the 965 in my rig I can attest to it's top shelf performance. Clean efficient rig that screams and didn't break the bank...excellent!

Thanks a whole lot for the kudos. I think that the board is holding me back a bit on the OC, but could be the chip as well. I was tryin for 4.4, but no go. I will be upgrading the mobo and GPU when I have the $$$$, it will stay as is for now. It does, however, blow through EVERYTHING I throw at it with flyin colors.

It took almost an hour to do the wiring right. I am pleased with the end results.

gldndragn,Welcome to Seven Forums. Very nice job, looks real good. Well done.

gldndragn welcome to SF,
4.4 is very aggressive and likely it's the H60 holding that back as well. Voltage, voltage, voltage.....heat...heat and more heat. I miss my 965 really is some ways but as my board was FX ready it was always a next phase to a low cost 8 core and it's clocking to 4.7 when weather permits.

I dont recall that my h60 wasnt cooling it well, but it wont load into windows without restarting right as my desktop loads. No bsod, no freeze....just an instant reboot. Mayhaps I need a little more cpu v.
I will give that a shot.

I have the H60 cooler as well. Did you see a big difference with the second fan?
I was thinking about doing a push/pull setup. Right now it just has the stock fan pulling air away out the back.

Yes I did, I upgraded to two cooljag everflaw 120 mm fans. Needed to get a pwm fan splitter to run both off of the cpu fan header on my mobo. It took load temps from around 55c down to around 45c-48c
