Oh I've got cooling here my old friend. That, you won't ever need to worry about... or me for that matter lol. I have a large box with an entire loop and at least 5 or 6 rads. Another medium sized box with a couple smaller rads heat sinks and fans. All different shapes and sizes. Also have another TEC with a 65c max at 35W should be just dandy for the NB. I might even have a NB cooler that will fit right on that board. Either way I go, I'll have pictures and screen shots. I'll set the Ryzen back up at my other desk and put the sA here on the North wall where I sit now. My desk is on the south wall. I face north with my bench for good luck.... and the water happens to be readily available near the washer and dryer

AN7?....you have plenty of helpers should you need it. Nice, easy full featured board. Very manageable. Not a stellar FSB board, but 250 is a good goal.

The one I sent him has already proven it's at least a 240FSB board with no mods done.

Go it. Will start the assembly process this evening. Thanks Bones!

Burn-ee will be good to you, that I can promise and will hold up well too. Plenty of support for it here as you know already so if there are any problems, you know what to do. Heatsink it well and turn it loose is all I can suggest. Dom some runs and show us what you can make it do.

Whatcha think? 2.7ghz should be doable?

Easily, esp with a good mobile. The Vcore voltage range is there to push it with, that I can assure you.

Keep it under 3.0v on the loop? Water delta 46f?

CPU voltage doesn't go that high, if memory serves it tops out in the BIOS around 2.2v's, perhaps 2.3v's but there isn't a need to go that high. 2.0v's or so is about as high as you'd ever need it to be for getting what you will from it. All the extra voltage beyond that just makes it run hotter.
Chilled is the thing if you can set it up, typically they don't play nice with sub-zero temps but there are a few that do. Just have to try it and find out if your CPU(s) is one of those or not. Chipset cooling is important too as you know, do what you must there.

Oh yea, 2.0v... thank you. OK.
I figured out my blue screen issues with the Athlons, which I cannot carry to the Abit. My Intel SSD is taking or has taken a dump. That was a frustration for a few days pulling teeth trying to get a higher memory frequency.
Should I use Sata or IDE drive/s?

Either will do but if you can get an install done with a SATA drive I'd do that.

Ok I selected a few different drives to install with. Will need a new os installed. Found my thermal take brackets. Havent used the since the mighty blower setup . Did a post up last night. Posts and runs bios issue free. Cant waitbto hammer n it. Have 2 single sided wticks of Adata. Hope he memory cranks up goodd. Again thanks Rosney

You're welcome. Not worried about having an A to bench, just picked up an NF7 2.0 with all black RAM slots cheap. It doesn't POST according to the listing so it's more of a tinker-toy for me to mess around with and possibly fix.
If it can be fixed I'll do it.

if you think the traces are broken, scrape off a bit of the trace coating at either side and bridge it with a strand of wire or even just a solder bridge.

Problem is the traces are TINY and my iron doesn't have a neede tip. I do have a fiberglass pen I can remove some of the coating with and see if they are broken or not. I'm gonna let this one stew until I get a pen with such a tip and once I do I can try that or perhaps conductive ink - My big worry is not cross-connecting the two affected traces together with a solder blob.

That small stuff is a pain to do. My problem has always been seeing it clearly enough to work with it. I need a magnifying work station. Long time ago Scottie turned me on to some real nice soldering tweezers and a soldering station. But my vision really sucks. I feel what you're going thru with that Bones. Oh man, that is some tiny soldering work. I forget what it's called but there is a tape you can purchase that you can put between the two traces that resists solder so you won't accidentally fuse them together.

Kapton tape. It is more of a heat barrier though.
I have a hard time with the small shit now too Eddie. Sight and touch are going away.

Yes, a trace pen was what I had in mind when I said conductive paint.
Had to buy a magnifying visor back when I fixed the Hero board after buying it. The visor made all the difference then and has come in handy several times since, while it's not a perfect solution it is about as good as it gets on the cheap.

Comes in handy especially with LOTS of light on the subject matter.

Gee why dont you scrap a bit of the mask off south of the scratches and check continuity across it the ends both go to solder points then go on when you find they are Ok which they look like they will be.
Your original diagnosis was the NB wasnt getting warm is it getting voltage? Check Vagp at the same time.

Your original diagnosis was the NB wasnt getting warm is it getting voltage? Check Vagp at the same time. Of course I'll be checking to see IF there is a real problem before trying to fix it. No sense in fixing something that isn't broke.
The fiberglass pen is great for creating checkpoints/spots to either side of the scratches as you describe.
My original diagnosis was based on what I had came up with, the second was to confirm it as so but it wasn't. As said I placed my fingers directly onto the chipset as if they were the cooler for the second test and it got warm so something is happening there at least.
Thing is I'm in absolutely no hurry with it, could be next week, month or whenever I'd go for it.

Labor of love bro,
Id like to find a NF7-S or NF7-S2 and a Ultra infinity skt A board.
I may get HAF cases for them since my case is very difficult to find
