usually, if you can't make certain SB+Hyper combination work within 5 minutes of troubleshooting (relaxing everything you can), you won't get it to work at all
will trade your GTX2 for my good PSC

-> any ranking -> TPP distrubution is a mess
...idea came during a random MSN conversation.
During an interview, you're often asked to tell about your hobbies. If you describe overclocking 'as it is' you'll use terms which in eyes of a non-OC person mean 'deliberate hardware damage'.
The challenge - is there a way to fully describe what we do (modding + clocking + cooling) as a 100% harm-free activity to a noob?
my budget would be ~200 Euros for flight/hotel + however much alcohol costs ... the biggest problem, IMO, is that such events are usually announced <1 month in advance so there's no chance to order cheap airline tickets
while we're on the subject of suspicious things being done in Romania, I'm somehow impressed by consistency of massive aircooled GPU clocks
some examples:
7800GTX 256 at 675MHz with LN2 average of 647
8800GTS 320 at 828MHz
9600GT at 950MHz
HD3870 at 1120MHz with LN2 average of 1107
HD4830 at 980MHz wit LN2 average of 969
HD4870 at 990MHz with LN2 average of 1003
HD5850 at 1120MHz with LN2 average of 1147
