What kind of OC are you on to push your temperatures that high? And where do you live? That sounds incredibly hot to me, you might want to...
It isn't too hard to hit 4 ghz with 1.22v if you're careful. It depends a lot on the chip, since some of them will OC brilliantly (4.5 ghz at...
I'm pretty sure this is correct, but we'll find out soon enough. My board allows me to go use 0.5 CPUM increments too, but I can't go over 9.0.
Temperature monitoring programs don't change your temperature, they display it for you. Changing your Tjmax doesn't CHANGE anything in reality, it...
Congratulations on the new setup. Sounds like a beast :). I had to wait two weeks for my part to get to me back in December because of "poor...
Set your Tjmax to 100 and you'll have your real temperature.
Prime 95, Orthos and IntelBurn Test if you feel the need. I always use RealTemp (3.00) and CPU-Z for other stuff. HWMonitor and GPU-Z come in...
ASUS P5Q is relatively inexpensive. I've hit 4.5 with it.
You shouldn't need 1.4v to hit 4 ghz with any multiplier, that's fairly high. Like kylzer said, 1:1 is the best way to go, so 1:1 with 8x500 is a...
Oops, your picture didn't load so I made a dumb response...
Cathodes are often used in builds for lighting. They look very nice :). It's not too hard to fiddle with the wires a bit if you don't have a...
4 ghz for sure. Not sure what your board is like but you can definitely OC higher. I'm not sure who said 4.4 but that's a bit high for 24/7,...
Intel e8400 on P5Q Pro at 4.5 ghz http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=526097 First real OC. Nothing fancy but I really didn't want to...
Unless you're getting super fans stick with the Swiftech radiators. They're incredible bang for buck. Tygon tubing is the clearest of of the...
nvm :x
Do you have a power bar or a surge protector? I'm not sure if that could really help, but it's the only decent thing I can think of right now.
I was thinking about doing that later so I could bump up my RAM and keep it 1:1. Did you notice any temperature changes from changing the FSB like...
Here's my 24/7: [IMG] I'll see how I can work down the Vcore, otherwise that's probably what I'll be running at. IBT pushed my temps up to 52...
I only used the bits that came with the dremel for the 8 pin and 24 pin connectors on the MB tray. Actually, that and the SATA cable hole on the...
Don't bother with two 4850s, just grab one solid card. And scrap the case. Get a decent case and buy the PSU separately, because there's no chance...
