Today I am returning a MiniDisc set-up that did not have all the features I thought it did, and some other features were deceptively advertised so as to make you think it was better than it was. Also returning some shorts, then exchanging some boots.

Still trying to find a place that has THIS for sale.

 

[Darien]

Pad thai.

 

[alareau]

Hey Amused, are you going to clock that sucker? I have the same cooler and my 2.4c is doing 3.3 at default voltage with the same speed ram on an IS7. I'd be curious to see what a real 3.2 would do.

Me too!

Yeah, I'm shooting for a minimum of 3.6. But I've had bad luck with OCing hardware. Everything I buy seems to not OC well with the exception of the 5900nu I just got (480/980). We'll see if the curse continues...

Watch your RAM timings if you don't get a decent overclock the first time. I was running my ram underrated by a significant amount, but was still getting instability issues with the motherboard's auto setting for the ram, so I raised it from 2-2-5-3 to 2-2-6-3. I am running a 4/5 divider and I think my FSB is around 275 or so, and I was amazed when I changed that one setting I went from 2.8 to 3.3 with no problems.

I'll keep an eye on that. These RAM timing settings are new to me. I'm a bit clueless on the subject. I just went for the lowest numbers I could find when I bought the Mushkin.

Nothing... too many bills. Logged into bank account tonight and found $33 after all of the bills were paid. That should give me enough gas to make the rounds this thanksgiving.

Been putting this off for days for no odd reason. :disgust: Thankfully, this thread has inspired me to work out the billing complications and get this thing in! Cheers :beer:
