ROG XI Gene/9900K OC

After 18 months of being away from all things PC my new system arrives today which I am very much looking forward to having a play, will have to wait another day or 2 for my cooling solution to arrive and it's nothing extreme! Anyway by the weekend I should be able to contribute with my findings. 😄

On another note it's great to see a lot of familiar names especially Dag, hope your well bud, you were truly missed 😉

So glad to hear you are fit and well again mate, great to see the guy in the hat again!
All good here, busy year at home building extensions etc, knackered tbh but got a holiday coming up in a couple of weeks, can't wait for a bit of sun and sea and the sex part may get postponed as I've just told her to listen out for the delivery man with my PC bits! She wasn't impressed as last time all my spare time was devoted to OC, only for a bit of fun this time round 😄

Welcome back. I did cancel my 9900k order since i find out the issue of heat that 9900k generated. My board is on his way. No manner. i can add a 8700/8086 to work with. my ambien temp is now 32C so.... math mode does not comply. Have a good week and let see that i can do for better than others.
Learn, Play Enjoy! We help and collaborate, NOT complain!

Hahahaha they just don't understand do they.

I need to pop over to HWBOT and see how the lads are doing. Not benched seriously since that AMD 32mil WR in the OC Pro thing, man that was a good few years back. Wonder if that still stands for the hardware I used?

Nick update your sig dude, I don't believe you are using that hardware anymore. Not you.
