    My Mountain Mods UV goodness :)

    Don't know if I have this right, but it looks like you go from your cpu block to your southbridge and then back to your northbridge. Wouldn't it be a lot cleaner/efficient if you went cpu>nb>sb? Maybe I'm not following the tubes properly.

    Beautiful water cooled rig

    Yes, I need to know how he sleeved those sata cables as well. Was also thinking it looked too thin for braided uv sleeving over rubber sata cables.

    E6850 temperatures way too high on water =(

    The cpu temp you see in the bios is NOT the temps displayed by coretemp. You have a CPU temp which is displayed in the bios. That sensor is just an approximate CPU temp outside of the die. The 2 temps read by coretemp are the temp sensors from inside the die. That is the reason you are...

    Bios Temps vs Vista temps

    Yes, the bios is always lower, much lower. Also, when using the Gigabyte eztune utility with hardware monitoring, the temps are much lower than either speedfan or everest. Speedfan and Everest are showing load temps exactly the same at 55 celcius while the gigabye tool is showing load temps...

    Bios Temps vs Vista temps

    I just upgraded from a e4300 oc'd to 3.2ghz to a e6600 oc'd to 3.6ghz. With my old e4300 the bios temps matched the idle temps in windows vista 64 perfectly. Now with the new e6600 there is about a 20 degree difference in idle temps. (bios reading 22 celcius, while both speedfan and everest...

    e4300 and OCZ Platinum Xtc REV.2 overclokgin

    1.45 volts works well for me. Anything higher and my temps seem to go a bit wonky and I'm water cooling. 1.45 is safe with air cooling as well. I've got e4300 @ 3.2ghz 400x8

    Ballistix Tracer Problems

    Heres another update. I think Eclipse is right on the money. I lowered the voltage from 2.2 to 2.0v. The ram boots ups fine and so far no errors in memtest. I definitely looks like this is a heat issue. Which leads me to my next question.... How the heck are you supposed to be able...

    Ballistix Tracer Problems

    Update: I have check the ram heat spreaders again. 1 of the 4 chip's spreader is not secured perfectly. The tape doesn't seem to be sticky and won't hold the it securely enough. Looks like I might have to RMA yet another set of this stuff. Lowered the voltage to 2.1 to see if I can keep...

    Want to build a CS:S server (need some help)

    You will want to make sure your upload is fast enough to run the amount of people you need to. I usually think at least 5k/sec is required per person. Probably the best way to control your server from another machine is to use HLSW along with setting up an ftp server on your computer so...

    Stress testing 64 bit vista system

    Have been running orthos to determine stability of system. Was noticing that orthos only stresses up to about 3 gigs of ram. Is this because orthos is 32 bit and cannot access all of the ram? The reason I'm asking is because my system is perfectly stable with orthos for 12+ hours on many...
