lol, look at this cat here. talking all this mess about someone who currently KILLED your whole forum's fastest superpi time by 4/10 of a second, with a computer pieced together with parts from my collection. GTFO dude, i mean seriously if i didn't know what i was talking about i wouldn't be sponsored by big names. post something close to my clock or my times then you might get a gram of respect from me, don't talk mess on myself or my crew because i made you look like an idiot on your home forum.
Firstly, calm down. You're not the first one here to achieve a 1700MHz OC, YET you ARE teh first one here to say that you should spin your HS around. Turning it a full 180 degrees gives no advantage over quickly turning it a few degrees, the fact that you got a 1.7GHz OC doesn't mean you know better. You are allowed to express your opinions, but rather than acting like an arrogant smug @$$ back up your statements with some hard evidence, not the "*rolleyes* yea like I wouldn't know with my neverheardofbefore 1.7GHz OC roflmao at u noobs eat*&(%#^*&!"- approach.
180 degrees turns aren't necessary, and I doubt they are beneficial in any way, nor do I believe it's harmful but no more use than turns of few degrees. In the unlikely event that I'm completely wrong, pleaso do give me some evidence. Don't tell me to swallow a knife, I'm not going to do it no matter how hard you try. That's not going to make me believe a thing. Evidence is.
As for you calling bigfella a cat, you must have gotten some really poor grades in biology if that's what you think he is... that thing in his avatar is called a "shark"

If you think having a SuperPI higher than everyone else in this forum makes you cool, you have a problem. Relentless bragging over nothing usually is caused by insecurity, which has its traces in poor social skills and/or a life of failures...

And, you're sponsored by BIG NAMES? Woww.. all heill "TEH ENFORCERHH". Well guess what, I'm sponsored by STFU International & Co., so GTFO dude, i mean seriously if i didn't know what i was talking about i blah blah blah. BIg deal? I get free stuff from my family, friends, Yamaha and of course Timbaland & STFU International, I guess that means I'm sponsored by big names. Care Factor = -2374239.65463345.
May I also note that even my unborn children (

I can't imagine why someone can get so full of himself just because he makes a little chip full of semiconductor material not to make stacks of machine code go awry while making the clock controlling it tick a bit faster... we're all BEGGING for some grains of respect from you alright. When I get some, I'll cook some bubblespastix porridge for your pet mouses.
Of course we won't talk "mess on yourself or your crew" because if you do "you and your crew" are going to come and bash, no, not that, even worse, OVERCLOCK the hell out of us and give us a lesson. Har, har, har...
Also, about the term "home forum"... dunno, but I would think most of us live in houses. Just a guess.
in fact if you have anything other than a stock HS, you risk damaging internal components
I can't see how that's true, most people who OC "seriously" use aftermarket cooling.
