Duh DUMB-DE-DUMB-DUMB!!! Duh

Confucius say "It would be nice when the SATA cable comes loose it would fall all the way out....."

Apparently on the last occasion that I reached inside the case from the top to feel how hot the cpu was I must have brushed the SATA connector on the back of the Raptor X. Then when I rebooted the hdd couldn't be found. Happen to notice this when review my bios settings and noticed the hdd was listed……… Bang Head Censored

So been playing and now have found a new problem. The North Bridge is cooking!!!!! Using speed fan & I believe the AUX temp is the NB as in doing a 15min run with OCCT @ 225FSB everything was good except for the AUX. Which got as high as 65C, and when I touched the NB and sure enough it was HOT. For S & Gs I threw an 80mm fan in the case somewhat pointed at it and the power caps.

So boosted the FSB to 250 and tried another 15 min run, everything except the NB stayed in the upper 40s – low 50s and the NB in the upper 50s with one or two trips about 60C. This is without the fans running in the Aquaduct BTW. So guess that answers the question about “Is it waiting for a fixed temp to turn on?”. Hope Stefan from Aqua Computer gets back with me on this!!
