    Hehehe, the title was an exaggeration. Nobody in their right mind would argue E5's can really compete with E8's clock for clock. I just think that at 4G it's good enough for games and if you want a significant performance increase for the money you spend on an E8 you might as well get a quad.

    Malaysia, but I think this is OEM, got it for about $50 off ebay. Didn't expect much from it.

    Who needs a E8400 when you can do this?

    True, but the thing that bugs me about the E8x00 is that for their price range you can get a quad these days.

    Actually I think there is something wrong with VID. The minimum voltage I can set in BIOS is 1.25 (IP35-E wouldn't let you undervolt).

    I am using a cooler master hyper tx2 that's just lying around, no the best.

    E5200 + IP35-E, passed two hours OCCT small. Vdroop is a bit much, 1.35v in BIOS. E5200 overclocked

    (OOS for now): PNY 9600GSO 768MB card - $39.99 AR ($40) - Free shipping - Frys.com

    Newegg has 3850HD also for 40 AR. With only $10 rebate, may be a better deal.

    ...

    It's the ghetto factor, the warm and fuzzy feeling you get when your push your cheap as dirt system to the extreme. Overclocking lost a lot of its fun when you can just throw unlimited money at your rig. It's like that toy that you skipped lunch a month to buy when you are ten. Nothing is as fun...

    Help me upgrade my E6850

    You'd be hard pressed to match the old 3.6G because of the low multipliers

    Is a Quad the right choice?
