It works great better than ever thanks. It runs at 3.8 GHZ which is 200 mhz slower than with the vapochill but runs happily 24/7 and is much quieter as well now.

nice, i've been motoring the progress, i missed you're web cam, and staring at the reversed parked lambo and ferrari
i can understand how painful and expensive some leaning can be (ie: my own sys) but it was worth it in the end for the satifaction when it worked and i made it work  !

Wow, great looking computer Jabba, It's sad to hear that your vapochill system was not reliable 24/7. Just out of curiosity, are you having any voltage drop problems with your p4 chip when it's running at full load? I've heard stories about the MAX3 board dropping a bit of voltage when it runs at full load resulting in a poorer overclock. There's a physical modification that you can do to your board if you want to fix it (I'll send you more info about it if you're interested), but I'm sure you find that 3.8Ghz is fast enough

i know the pain Jabba, my computer caught on fire because of the power supply and ruined the motherboard 
but take it as i do, it's all a learning experience. my lesson, never keep a power supply for 6 years!
if u still want 4.0GHz equivalent tho, then AMD now has the Athlon 64 4000+ ( http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/...5_9487,00.html) but i guess after all ur hard work u probably just wanna get wat u have workin.
anyway, one thing is for sure, u'll always have something to look back upon and smile at 30 years from now!
