ok, thanks for the info. :) I have to admit that my 680i sucks when it comes to Quad OC. My P35 Asus P5k OC'ed my q6600 to 3.6, rock solid. Only problem was MAJOR issues with harddrive performance.. I guess we'll talk again when all the new goodies come out..

OK, that makes sense.. but if I were to build it now with mu current setup and then transfer to the other one later one. My current build is EVGA 680i SLI Q6600 @ 3000 XFX 8800GTX SLI 4 x 1GB DDR2 800 ram bouhc of HD's. Can one big loop handle all that? or do i need 2 seperate...

Nevermind this post, I reposted. The real one is in Cases and cooling. Thanks.

Hi, I'm planning on getting a new system next summer with whatever's cool at that time.. Something like Nahelem and some Nvidia GTX 280 SLI (or AMD equivelent).. But you guys probably get the picture. It will be all new hardware from scratch. I want to start planning now so that when i buy...

The game was freakin AWESOME, but short.. They should have created more.. Can't really put words to it, but there was just not enough.. Pretty much all the new games just have the feeling of being "just not enough". The gameplay was awesome in every way, even though my 8800GTx took a crap...

First run in Vista was a total disaster! First of all very difficult to get the game to run for some reason, but who cares.. The performance in DX 10 was terrible. Around 8 FPS with everything on Very High and 1920 X 1200.. Very sad.. This is with the 169.01 drivers from nVidia...

The SP demo is out today for the ones who preordered the game. With my rig at 1920 X 1200 @ high in Xp with the latest beta driver 169.01 or something like that i averaged a little less than 30. I turned a few settings down to medium (2 or three of them) and it ran around 30 average. It's...

That depends on the water cooler. If you have a custom made with a triple 120 radiator a good block, some monster fans etc.. It's always going to beat out top end aircooling unless you're putting an AC unit blowing full speed into the case. I love my ThermalRight 120, with a Panaflo M1A (87...

There are a lot of different things that can affect your temps. For example if you have good ventilation in your case, or if you have the side door of the case open, or if you set up the damn thing on your desk. Plus every processor is different. You can also try the new RivaTuner. It's...

Yeah.. It's a G0. I got it from Tankguys. They guaranteed it. Great processor. I'll see if i can push it further. The only thing is that the Load temps are 79°C at the highets.. A little high. But then again that's with running Prime95 on all four cores for two hours. Games are a lot better -...

I've got my q6600 G0 to go 3.6 without too much trouble.. i use the ASUS P5K Premium board. All i did was set the FSB to 400, and the rest to auto. I'll to some more tweaking later on to fine tune it. Just need to make sure it's stable and all that. I got the ThermalRight Ultra 120...

Actually 3.6 stable at 1.5 (1.485 Cpu-z). ThermalRight Ultra120 ASUS P5k Premium P35

q6600: 3.2 GHz@1.25(cpu-z +bios), ThermalRight Ultra120 ASUS P5k Premium P35 I'll try to push a little further this weekend, and when the weather starts to cool down a little. I'm also on the original 0204 bios.

I have Vista on the Raptor, and XP on one of the WDC WD250KS-00MJB0 drives.. I ran HD tach, and on the first WDC WD250KS-00MJB0 disc, I had no performance drops.. This is the disc with XP on it. The other one had a huge dip at 120 GB. Everything else was perfectly fine. I ran the test 3...

They are all Western Digital drives. Except one which is Maxtor. Let's see here. With al the numbers and all that crap.. WDC WD200JB-00EVA0 on USB (IDE) WDC WD200JB-00GVA0 ***** IDE - Rest is SATA WDC WD200JD-00GBB0 WDC WD250KS-00MJB0 WDC WD250KS-00MJB0 WDC WD740ADFD-00NLR1...
