    Still not sure about Load Line Calibration

    I know roughly what Load Line Calibration does, and the risks involved. But as I understand it, there shouldn't be a problem with using it with relatively low voltages. Is it safe to use 1.25V and Load Line Calibration on my Core i7? That's what I need to get 4GHZ stable.

    Core i7 day-to-day overclock

    What's yours? After my initial OC to see how far I could get with minimal voltage increase, I settled on 3.2 for a while, then 3.4, and now 3.8 with an insignificant voltage bump. I was able to run 3.2 and 3.4 at 1.18Vc and 1.2Vq, now I'm running 3.8GHZ (201x19) at 1.23Vc and 1.2Vq. No idea...

    PCI-E Power Y-Splitter?

    So I personally haven't used SLI or CF before. My current PSU (see sig) provides plenty of power for any SLI or CF configuration (obviously not tri, but regular should be fine). 50A on 12V rail etc. However, it only comes with two dedicated PCI-E power connectors (6+2pin). If I wanted to run...

    Core i7 920 @ 2.66GHZ temperatures?

    I need to know if my temperature readings are a bit too high. I changed back to stock clocks to see whether or not I have some complications with my thermal paste, which I strongly suspect as I didn't have isopropyl alcohol handy at the time (but do now). I am running the above CPU with a...
