Hey rip-the-jacker !
So you went with a W3680 in the end....congrats!
Did that German shop on eBay run out of the W3690?

Hey dude,

yeah, it seems to be nice and quick although i know its not quite the W5690! Im not sure, the guy I bought from came from hong kong, was posted monday and cam yesterday so that was fairly quick.

Another thing guys, my RAM came and I just installed, 32GB at 1333mhz so I'm over the moon with my setup so far

Hey guys,

A quick question, my system seems to be running fairly cool and stable, the only thing I'm concerned about is the "Northbridge Chip" which seems to be at a constant 58c. Is this normal operating temps? As everything else is in the 30s (for the most part). Cheers

Hello,

58*C is pretty normal for the northbridge chip. Read up on this page though, as it is an important temperature to watch.
