EXACTLY. Milk it for all it's worth, my friend. 8) Glad it worked out for you! Now you need to try overclocking your PC, changing jumpers, voltages, etc. :mrgreen:

I don't know... I was told it's never a good idea to change a jumper on a motherboard that you're not supposed to touch, even if it's labeled "Sex and Free Beer".

Good thing I don't like beer then, eh? :mrgreen:

Seriously, though - I hardly ever have to mess with jumpers these days. In the old days, however (if I remember correctly), voltage was controlled by jumper settings. Now it can be done via BIOS, but wow...it would be interesting to see "Sex and Free Beer" as a jumper label. Or "Universe 1" and "Universe 2". 8)
