    Very nice Any problems yet? (condensation, too humid, etc...)

    If I may ask, how did you get CoolMon to show your temps? I can't seem to get it correct.

    i have only had it running for about an hour now (just took the pics with my webcam) but it seems to be fine... the cool thing is that i can always adjust the a/c settings if i need to.... the only sideaffect it seems is that the a/c is very loud... it is even drowning out the sound of my delta!

    on coolmon... mack sure that you have AT LEAST version 5.8 of motherboard monitor installed

    ahh sorry i dont know what i was thinking... i just read on coolmon website that it requires 5.09 or newer...

    hmm does MBM5 work ok by itself? so u can figure out if the problem lies in MBM or Coolmon

    Yes it works perfect by itself. I think the problem is with CoolMon, but I cannot firgure it out. What code line did you use for that to show up? Thanks

    The new version of mbm has a tool tip function which is handy. I just check my temps with a wave of my mouse. Otherwise, nice mod dude! Those are some great temps!
