    P6T Deluxe Overclocking Profiles

    Damn, I was hoping for the easy way out. Theoretically it should work though right? If someone else were to upload there profile from the same mobo/cpu combo. Any thoughts on the GPU? Will it decrease my ability to OC my CPU by adding it to the loop?

    eVGA GTX 280 Flashing Bios

    Hi, I just purchased an eVGA GTX 280. I heard that you can flash the bios to the same as the superclocked edition and it would be the same as if you bought the superclocked card. IS that true?

    Compare your CPU to a 4Ghz Core i7 965 EE Nehalem!

    I just got a 920 and a p6t but I haven't set it up yet. What settings did you use to get it to 4GHz? My memory is ddr3-1600 and I'm using a liquid cooling system. I'm a noob when it comes to overclocking though. Is there any way you could upload your O.C. Profile?

    I ordered one as well. It just arrived today actually. That's exactly how I plan to use mine. But I think I might wait to open it till I hear some more news about the Samsung 256GB SSD's that went into production last week. I might send the Intel back and get one of them instead if they are...

I didn't even get it yet, but if I can tripl the capacity and nearly triple the write performance....wouldn't I it make sense o get the Samsung instead? How much more than the Intel could it be? And if...

    Koolance INX-720BK with my i7 920

    OK, sorry about that...You can move it if you like. Why don't they like koolance? Is it not a good product or is it just because it's a premade kit and not DIY? I didn't see how I could go wrong with a complete liquid cooling system for $200. Anyways, Anybody have any thoughts?

    Upgrade advice for REALLY old hardware

    That's what I did. I'm upgrading to a core i7, but it's def a lot more $$ so it all comes down to how much you wanna spend. I just purchased an Intel SSD for my system. Is a ramdisk like this faster than using an Intel SSD as your scratch disk? If so how much? Is it worth the extra money...

    Which Nehalem to Get

    After Reading today's Nehalem Review, I'm a little indecisive on which Model to get when I build my new system. I was originally going to get the 965 for the higher performance. But they reviewer said they were able to overclock the 920 to 3.8 on air and remain stable. The 920 is 1/3 of the...

    Where the heck are the Intel SSD's

    How much better do you think it will be over a raptor? They have so many benchmarks and they're all different. I'm not sure which one to go by. I can put 2 VR in a Raid 0 for only $350

    Where the heck are the Intel SSD's

    I think I'd get one for $500. $669 seems a bit over the top. I could see $669 if it was the SLC version.
