Overall travel time: 3 hours. Travel cost (beer and sausages not included): 16 Euros. Why am I telling you this? I don't know. Should hold the mobo im my hands in two weeks. Skoal!
Sounds like a plan

yeah sorry again sean apologized in case he didnt present what he was trying to say right and i did the same.. trust me i was shocked when he stated that when i first spoke with him!!! i couldnt believe it.. but then when he called me back we both cleared up the misunderstanding.. sean was very cool to deal with.. seems to be a good tech as well

think im going to pick up one of the foxconn x38a's as well to play with.. but i think ill use the dfi in the main system since some people are unsure of the foxconn x38 at this point.. it will just be to play around with lol

The Thermalright ultra Extreme 120 is a good one, but mine would only fit on one way (as mentioned in the review).

I would say that the 90mm version would be a better bet for allround compatibility.

Performance is nearly as good as well, with the 90mm one.

Your load temps will probably be about 2C higher is all..... there are plenty of review around though if you want to check it out, I think Anandtech have a good one.

Realistically speaking, unless your CPU is a really good one, you will be looking at **around** 3.6Ghz for G0 for 24/7 use with air cooling, but this can go either way as the CPUs do vary a lot.
