    Well I found the "stop pestering me" check box and rebooted and I now feel much better!

    It didn't reboot once yesterday and the room was sweltering due to the sudden heatwave! ...knocked all the fans speed down to 40% this morning and the system is still fine. So I'm putting it down to airflow - as it was probably blowing out one end and sucking it all back in at the other!

    I did some minor cable management as well, it's a big case but there's lots of brass fans, pipes, and super sized heatsinks all over the place so it's a bit tight in there already!

    I'll leave it a day or so, then ramp up the clock again to find a comfortable pace and then get this beast crunching for me!

    ...it has a fair sized northbridge heatpipe coming off it and more brass than a Salvation Army band... http://www.neoseeker.com/resourcelink.html?rid=138918
