Very nice setup there mate, now get that CPU and card in there and start clocking that sucker, with this setup you should be on for some good results in the benchmarks.

yeah i just cut off the original heatsink theat was connected to the northbridge. It has two plastic push through mounts to hold it in place :)
Got all three loops filled now and now leak testing. Unfortantly wont be able to do any more work on it to Sunday because of work and looking after my daughter.
Here's a sneaky pic of leak testing

Terribly munchable looking coolant there. It's like a liquorice lace factory :)
I know what you mean about not having the time.

wow what a day i had yeasterday. Managed to get a few 3dmark runs in then pci-e socket 1 didnt work. Ran a single card in socket 3 and now that doesnt work. well i say the sockets dont work but i have yet to test them. If its not the sockets thats two 8800ultras gone in 24 hours :(
Also been trying my QX6700 in the board. Can get to 3.6Ghz but doesnt like any more. That was with 300fsb. Thou the bios does need to mature. Alot.
Will let you know on sunday once i test the board/cards ;)
