For the larger e-peen dude ;)
Sorry Sneakers, maybe I wasn't clear enough. I meant that 1.55V is the absolute maximum that Intel set for the Lynnfield. As in you go past 1.55V,...
@Kapu Your timings seem a bit high for a 1350MHz clock, even with a 1T refresh rate. But then I'm actually not that familiar with RAM overclocking...
I was told that for decent stability, you should run Prime95 for at least 8 hours. That or just run IntelBurnTest, which rapes your CPU and heats...
Holy crap Kapu, that really is a super chip considering you're on air cooling and all, well done. >< As for the safe voltages, according to...
Yes it does have quite a lot to do with your PSU actually. When you overclock, more power is required by whatever component you are overclocking....
Wow 4.2GHz... So close yet so far away >< Thanks for your input Alec. I might try to lower the voltages a bit but I tried 1.35V and it couldn't...
The temperatures would be a little lower, but the ambient is sky rocketing here because summer is coming, but at night it's still pretty cool,...
All I can say is the thermalright MUX works wonders, lol. I'm actually stil running Prime 95 at the moment, but I've got high hopes since I've...
Hey guys, As the title says, what do people think about running a i5-750 running at 4.0GHz 24/7? Details as follows: Multiplier and BLK at...
So I got the rig, was all happy and all, but ran into a couple of RAM incompatibility issues, but that's fixed now. Really happy with this current...
Damn, rig comes tomorrow XD can't wait. I actually decided to go with a CM Storm Scout case in the end because I really didn't want to have to pay...
Actually my friend went with an elgato eyeTV hybrid. Functionality it's pretty much the same as the other USB offerings I found out, and I let my...
I've only really shopped at newegg to be honest. Do you know some other online I can get it from? Can't get access to a walk-in store, sorry.
Nevermind, I found out that indeed I can only get a TV tuner designed specifically for Macs. Since my friend has a Macbook, I think it'd be...
Got a question that is a little bit out of our normal realm of computers; I got a Mac question :P I've got a friend who's looking for a TV tuner...
That's why I decided to go with MSI. Same price but extra $7 shipping fees I can live with so long as I'm not being raped by customer support. MSI...
Hey guys, It took a while, but here's the final build, ordered and all for $841.91: CPU: Intel Core i5 750 MB: Gigabyte GA-P55-UD4P RAM: Corsair...
Thanks for the input delatux. Interestingly enough, the Caviar is now $10 off, making it the same price as the 500GB model...hehe :P By the way,...
Thanks for reminding me about the color scheme; I completely forgot about it! Now I'm thinking how bad a Gigabyte blue/white scheme would go with...
