DI/LN2 pot suggestion

[jplem1]

Hello everyone,

I'm James from Australia but an OZ citizen. Just studying there. These are my questions:
1. I have decided to buy kingpin product (Venom or F1EE), however still confused which one should I get for my Phenom II 965be.
2. Someone told me that I should buy Venom for 965be. If so, can I use Venom pot in Intel motherboard?

Opinions would be appreciate it. Please excuse my English. Thanks

venom will be much better suited for the Phenom II

Well both pots are mainly made for Ln2

Venom is best suited for the Phenom chips since they dont cold bug. If you wanted an all around pot I would recommend the F1EE since it will do good with just about every chip. Although with the F1EE you wont get the absolute max with Phenom II or Clarkdale.

Go with Venom.

Venom supports Intel 1156 socket and AMD's natively. Sure if you very need, you can put Venom on other sockets too with ghetto mounts

thanks for replied. It seems I should buy Venom.
@TiN: what's ghetto mounts? couldn't find in kingpin products list.

I would wait a few weeks and see if something new shows up on the page. As far as the Venom for 1366 and other Intel CPUs you amy run into an issue where you get cold bugs. As far as the ghetto mounts tin was talking about he just means make some sort of improvised mounting for other sockets.

Best Idea ever. I heard Kal-EL is buying!

buying both sounds a perfect decision, but for now I don't have enough funds to afford both. Perhaps sometime this year not for first time buying.

Sounds like another Overclockaholics Contest in the making.
