    New WinXP Pro install with a 640G WD HD. Need partitioning software advice

    so you want to use the full 640gb capacity? If that's want you need to reinstall the OS and install the SATA driver during windows XP installation so that win xp will recognize the full HD capacity

    ---------- Quad Overclock Thread! ----------

    Mine is Q6600 (g0) at 3GHz @ 1.1825v (1.125v load) air cooled using TRUE on GA-G33M-DS2R. The highest I can achieved is 3.42GHz @ 1.3625v in just 8hrs of prime95 but my temps is too high for me (62, 61, 58, 58) so I lowered it down to 3ghz

    Cooling a quad core in SFF case

    If you'll buy q6600 don't use zalman 8700. It's not worth it for a quad. It looks good but its just a little better than stock cooler. I used 8700 in my q6600 at 3ghz before but after a month I shift to TRUE, it run too hot for me so I need to get a better cooler. My case is a clone of a...

    Best Low profile HSF for q6600

    Binky, your right about that. lol. :). I was just encourage with the oc of my friend's q6600 but his HSF is a Tunic tower in a mid tower case. I didn't taken into consideration that Matx casing is a lot harder to use for an overclocked q6600. But that's fine I'll have to make up with what I have...

    Best Low profile HSF for q6600

    Zap, I already tried to OC to 3ghz using 1.225v in bios and my temps are 71 65 65 68. Actually this is my original plan, to OC it up to 3 ghz but when summer comes here in Manila our room temp will probably reach 31c to 33c maybe more so I don't think my setup can't handle the heat so...

    is this a good cooler for ocing a q6600?

    Guys, I'm currently using zalman 8700led. Do you think enzotech ultra-x is better than my zalman? Right now I'm not satisfied with my temps so I'm looking for another low profile HSF (below 130mm in height).
