    I wouldn't really get anything worthwhile out of it imo.
    Moreover, it's easy to throw it into the watercooling loop I'm planning, it appears. Just a universal block will do fine on it, as it's already got the passive cooling ribs and all for the remaining pieces.

    Well, I'm not sure how the specifics work with setting it up as one or the other, but using it as a folding GPU is also entirely possible when it's just sitting there.

    Since my Prime95 test crashed 45 minutes into testing at 4.3Ghz, I downclocked to 4.2Ghz and things seem to be running smoothly, albeit my computer is now heating my bedroom running at 55 degrees. I had to take the damn door off my Define Mini case though cause it was causing some airflow issues. I am glad my CPU vents out the back of my case now, it's making it much cooler inside the case for my graphics card.

    Internal Parts:
    CPU: Intel i7-2600
    MB: GIGABYTE GA-P67A-UD7-B3
    GPU: Gigabyte GV-N460OC-1GI
    RAM: 4 x Corsair Dominator CMP4GX3M2C1600C7
    HDD: Various 1TB drives for data.
    SSD: Corsair Force Series F80A Solid State Drive
    PSU: Antec TruePower Quattro 850W
    CASE: Antec DarkFleet DF-85

    External Parts:
    MONITOR: Acer 26" 16x10 (End of line when I purchased, can't find any links)
    MOUSE: Logitech G700
    KEYBOARD: Various Logitech G series sitting around, but currently using a wireless Logitech K350
    HEADSET: Corsair HS1
    ROUTER: Netgear DGND3700 N600

    i7-2600 instead of i7-2600k because I need some of the additional functionality of the 2600 which the 2600k doesn't have, for my work I do from home, at the sacrifice of overclockabiliy.

    Post the link without periods and I'll edit it for you. Or PM the link to me, if you're able to. (I forgets the threshold for that too)
