Thanks to ud over at pcper, have an order in for two chips from these guys http://www.badflash.com/
Hope they arrive this week and we'll see if I ordered them correctly. This will also give me a chance to see if it really was the bios! :eek:
Gave up on abit as it seems they are getting out of the mobo business...........
While I'm waiting on the chips thought I'd get back on the cooling issue. As a re-hash here is the side view
What we do have is the two 60s in the rear. We all know this isn’t going to do me much good when the 1210 is oc’ed. On an open tech station the nView-1210 that is going into DC was in the 50 – 54C range. If I’m to get close to that I’ll need more air! One alternative is to try for a 120 on the side. This shows three different placements for one. Please note that the CNPS-7500 is 3” tall with the total case about 5”. That doesn’t include the mobo standoff height either.
  
The high mount covers the hsf, the middle cover the hsf and deletes the handle, the low is close to the psu. If I make both 60s exhaust then maybe the low mount would be best as the cool air comes in low and is pulled up by the 60s.
As mentioned earlier for a bow hole I’ll have to go with a 92mm max because of case width. The cooling vents you see are mirrored on the other side. So I’m very open to suggestions!
BTW I’ve dropped even thinking about adding a GPU.
