    1366 x58 Xeon Enthusiast overclocks club

    I'm looking forward to giving this a shot. I've been running an OC'd i7-920 since 2009 @ 4ghz. It's been a rock. But the Xeon x5600 series looked... damn cheap and impressive. Bought a x5670 on ebay for $20 USD (made an offer, was asking $39.00, and he accepted), so I can't wait to get my hands...

    Revisiting the Intel i7-930 and Nehalem Microarchitecture

    Awesome Idea of the Day

    I one put a hot dog in the microwave for 37 years. This was about 30 years ago when we got our first one, and it had no max time - the digits just kept shuffling over and over. 37 years is a decent guess I would say. I was like, 9 years old so thought "I'll just watch it! Yeah!" and then my mind...
