http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/overclocking-core-i7,2063.html
"Our Core i7 920 sample is stable at 3.8 GHz and with a bit more tweaking
would likely stabilize at 4 GHz as well. We didn't really have any better
luck with the 965 Extreme, which could be tweaked through its multiplier...

Opinions on CPU choice please.... by
~misfit~[_3_]
I'm thinking of replacing my E4500 @ 3.32GHz with a 45nm part as this was
always my plan on buying this mobo (P5K-E WiFi-AP).
I'm on a tight budget. I was considering getting an E8400, that was always
my plan. However, I see that an E7200 is only 2/3 of the price, has a higher
multiplier and...

Plugin for MBM5 to read C2Ds. by
~misfit~[_3_]
http://www.thetechrepository.com/showthread.php?t=74
Just thought folks might be interested. I've enabled it and stopped Core
Temp (as they were reading identically). I was using MBM for CPU load and
Core Temp for temp (indication). Now MBM5 does both.
Cheers,

Suggestions for an AM2+ mobo? by
~misfit~[_3_]
Hey all,
I'm Intel all the way at the moment. However, a friend bought a built-up

trouble) using an Asus M3A motherboard, a Phenom 9500 CPU, 1x2GB DDR2 module
and a 9600GT.
The machine's abeen a nightmare. Firstly it was...

Updated my P5W DH from an E6600 to an E6850 by
~misfit~[_3_]
Somewhere on teh intarweb "William" typed:
It's a fact,
certified faster CUP's run cooler than OC'ed CPU's at the same speed.
I take issue with this "fact" so have crossposted it to
alt.comp.hardware.overclocking. Hopefully someone there will give their
opinion.

Accurate CPU temp monitor? by
~misfit~[_3_]
Hi.
Up until today I've always considered CoreTemp to be the most accurate for
reading my E4500's currently) temperature. It agrees with Intel's
TAT on temps across the range from idle to 100% load, give or take a degree.
However, while working on a mate's Phenom I downloaded CPUID's...

~misfit~[_6_]
Oh well, after achieving what I consider to be a reasonable overclock on my
"non-overclockable" ASUS P5PE-VM getting my E4500 to 2.93GHz at stock
voltage it seems that I'm going to be getting an Asrock 4CoreDual-VSTA VIA
PT880 Ultra anyway!
Here's me, quite happy with the P5PE-VM/E4500 @ 2.93...

Hey,
I'm just OCing and stressing a new build for a mate. Asus P5K-Deluxe WiFi-AP

best in the world for ventilation (Gigabyte 3D Aurora) but it's also not the
worst. 1 x 120mm in the front, 2 x 120mm in the back as well...

reluctant overclocker considering C2D E6600 by
»Q«
I was looking to put together a C2D box, with no thought of
overclocking, when I noticed the E6600 was slightly more expensive than
the E6750. I figured that must be because the E6600 is easily OCable,
and some googling and reading here confirm it. So I find myself in the
same boat as a few years...
