Thanks guys. I've enabled "Load Line Calibration". @Ryland, I too am thinking of following Bill's advice and hitting that 3.2 "sweet spot." I will post results after some adjustments and testing. Best of luck!

Hi all. Good thread for me. I am attempting to get my Q6600 to 3.20 on a GA-P45-UD3P. I wanted to again ask a question that BigBeef posed a couple pages back but I don't think was answered. There is a setting in M.I.T. called "Load-Line Calibration" ********* Motherboard Voltage Control...

I think I know the answer to this but I just want to make sure. The P180 comes with a ton of screws in a bag. Within that bag is a smaller bag labeled MB USE ONLY. These are the screws I use to mount the MOBO to the standoffs, right? Thanks.

Thanks a lot for the prompt reply. It's funny. I just found that PDF!!! Thanks again.

Hi. I'm in the process of installing an Intel Q6600 with a Zalman CNPS9700 LED cooler on a GIGABYTE EP45-UD3P. I have Articlean 1 and 2 along with Arctic Silver 5. Do I need to use either Articlean 1 or 2 on the Zalman? My primary question is do I need to apply Artic Silver 5 to both...

Check out the new Dell Ultrasharp 2209WA. There's been a lot of discussion about it around here. Apparently, it features a much better panel as opposed to the cheap TN panels that are used in so many 22" widescreens. CNET Australia Review TFTCentral Info Retailing for $299 US before...

@variant Can't wait to hear what you think. I am seriously considering this for my build. Best of luck!

It is indeed available in the U.S. Check out the Tech Specs tab on the product page. Interesting that they have removed the "Panel Type:" spec. The mystery continues. $299 US seems like a really good deal. Too good??? :D

The 2208WFP is indeed TN. Dell Specs. Also listed as TN at TFT Central. The 2209WA claims to feature something called an "eIPS" panel, which it seems nobody has heard of before.However, that CNET review is very positive. Hope some more reviewers get their hands on it so we can learn some more...

Thanks for the answer. I learn something new here everyday. Cheers!

Hi. I purchased an EVGA 256-P2-N761-TR e-Geforce 8600 GTS 256mb Video Card. Yes, I know it's not the latest and greatest, but it's what I've got for my first build. Here's my question: I'm planning on purchasing a widescreen 22'' (IPS or MVA) display which features a 1680x1050 native...

Okay, that makes sense. But, I have a couple more questions: 1) Why in the world did DELL stop selling the 2007WFP? 2) If the 2209WA will in fact cost around $300 US, then can somebody explain to me why the DELL UltraSharp 2007FP costs $439 US?!? --especially since it seems you have to get...

Some info about the 2209WA from TFTCentral.co.uk posted today. Still seems to be some mystery surrounding this new offering.

Some info about the 2209WA from TFTCentral.co.uk posted today. Still seems to be some mystery surrounding this new offering. It just seems hard to believe that what appears at this point to be a pretty nice product will be in the $300 US price range. :confused:
