    Just for some helpful information.

    I replace my cpu cooler H50 with a H80. What I use to have at idle temps now I have to put a 50% load to get. 100% load tops out after 1 hour at a average of max 61C.
    P6X58D-E
    12gigs of Kingston 2000 O/C

    Did a Repair Install to clean up some things I screwed up doing beta test.
    Then decided to continue to check out things and found that my system would see 12 gigs of ram and then 8 gigs of ram and then 10 gigs of ram.

    Windows sees the ram just like the bios sees the ram.
    CPU-Z always sees 12 gigs. Memtest 86+ always sees 12 gigs of ram. Confusing.
    While doing many hours of Memtest86 I was doing some research and found on the Asus Forum some good info. Good hell it was great info. It fixed my problem and made my system run cooler.
    Memtest86+ 13.5 hours and all ram passed.

    ** I had installed the new cooler to tight.
    Puts to much pressure on the cpu where the memory controller is and puts to much pressure on the motherboard which effects the two ram slots closes to the cpu.

    **Summery:

    Backed the tightness off the cpu cooler and ram is indicated in all places 12 gb as it should and it lowered the cpu temps.

    I hope this information help someone.

    Thank you for the video.

    Personally I would of bent the tubing instead of all those 90 deg fittings. It would of looked a lot cleaner and less cluttered. It also would have less fitting to possibly leak.

    I would like to know what brand of lighting he uses.

    I watch a lot of his videos. He is excellent, but seems to be more interested in aesthetics than performance, but I still watch him and like him, I think you had better go in there and say money is no object. He usually uses Bitspower as much as possible. They make some outstanding stuff, but you pay dearly for it. I use some of their fittings, but the lower end ones. But, I thought that rig was excellent looking. Some of the stuff he does, I wouldn't even attempt.

    Oh yes he does great work. I also like his videos. Just some things I would do different.
    When money is no object some great things can happen.
