You got that right there Rodney. One thing I will never use Dice on a coldbugged CPU again, a slow pot (a large copper mass) and nitrogen is so much easier. When you sip the nitrogen in as needed the temp doesnt go down much and when the CPU is at full load the temp comes up slowly it makes it so easy to keep the CPU one or 2 degrees above coldbug. Plus another beauty of nitrogen is if you accidentally go over the coldbug temp you dont have to sit there twiddlng your thumbs waiting for the temp to come back up just stick the gas torch in and give it a quick burn and you are going again.

here are a few pics of the pot Jon let me borrow I need to pull that foam pad off and take the plate that is on it off and make one for 775 that one has hole for AMD sockets and isnt wide enough for 775 and too long the the other way

I just realized how much use that thing has had by looking at these pictures...
Go easy on the DICE at first. You need to find the cold bug temps. You'll see what I mean once you get rolling. I've had to take that thing off and dump it and let it warp up and refill it so many times..... In other words, you may not need to clamp it down because you may need to pull it off a few times! lol. Whata gas.
That insulation is from a work out machine. Sparky let me snag this and he uses one just like it. Even with LN2 it holds the cold in super well. Your condensation levels will be kept to a minimum.
Had a 3400+ that did some 3250mhz with Dice. A completely stubborn chip.
Any how you'll be benching and clocking in around 1.65-1.7v
DICE POT. There was a mod that I never got around to with this pot. I was going to drill a hole for my Multi-meter temp probe. You are more than welcome to do so to keep pace on them temps. I would start at a positive temp of at least 5c-10c if not warmer maybe 20c. Then start bringing temps down. Temps will fluctuate during a load especially with the dual core chips. That pot can warm up so keep dice near by. I suggest maybe 1.5 inches of acetone, start slow adding dice, it can boil over. Boils under heavy loads with Phenom II and FX exceeding 250w. Does the same with 939 dual cores but not quite as bad. The bracket will slide right off. I did at one time have it bolted down, but that was for the AM2-AM3+ platform. There's tapped screw holes there to fasten your bracket once you've gotten it manufactured.
Not much more I can add at this time. I wish you good luck and happy clockings. Keep the pot as long as you need it. I do not plan to have a use for it for a while yet.

All looks good. He wont have any cold bug problems with 775 and dice.

yea I shouldnt have to deal with cold bugs til I do some AMD testing later down the rd right now I am having a good ol time doing 775 I was able to push one of the E7200s to 485fsb I am gonna test the other alone with the CPUs I am getting today gonna bin me out a celeron D 420 thanks to Ales also have a celeron E3300 to test with my E6600 so I still got a couple of cpus to run through and then I will need to pick up more the lot of 105 I wanted didnt sell so I am gonna use next weeks allowance and try to get them if the wife is willing to let me lmao

I've just made a dice session with my 1150. I have a Venom pot. It's very good for dice. Be aware with insulation, dice is worse than ln2. You can disassembly heatsinks from 2 vrm I think. They are close to socket and can be the main condensation points. The board going to cool down in that area the heatsink are warmer and producing condensation. I cover near the socket as hermetic as just I can. Put paper below. If can't reach fresh air can't condense. Ok, it's ugly as hell but working very well ! I've used this on my last few session and couldn't see any drops of water when disassembling.

yea I got a lot more work to do on it I am gonna insulate around the socket with clay or vaso Im gonna get it all good and sealed up I am working on my solder skills to put volt mods on my P5B deluxe so I can get more voltage

ok so going for 1st time DICE tomorrow got the mobo almost ready gonna get some stuff to coat the back of the board later so it is dry for tomorrows run this is what I got so far I check all around the foam to check and see if there was anyway for air to get in there and I got it all sealed up around the pot hopefully it goes good and I can do some decent stuff with it thanks Again Jon hope to have some good results to show ya when ya get back from vaca

Looks good ! I wish You good luck and hope You will have a good session ! Don't forget the bottom of the board. It's going to cool down too in the socket area. Will waiting for the results !

Will waiting for the results ! thanks man yea I am gonna cover the back of the board with LET I did some of it with clear nail polish but that was just taking too much time I put dielectric grease in the socket and powered it on and checked it with water everything is working so far when I 1st put the grease in the socket it didnt wanna come on but I re-seated it and it came on now I am gonna seal up to the CPU with the clay and fix this wire that came loose cause I put my thumb on it lol other then that its good to go

thanks I wish I would have taken a pic of the inside of the foam around the CPU I will take one have I am done so you guys can see what I did around the CPU I put the clay right up to the CPU it should stay dry in there I am gonna run the celeron 440 1st and see what I can get with it before I move on to other ones gonna get 10lbs of dry ice that should last me a few hrs
