    asus p5e-vm overclocking thread

    weird....installing visual studio 2008 hard crashed the system.... i noticed the voltage was fluctuating all over the place because it was going from 6x to 7.5x and back and it was going 1.2V to 1.36V....would that have somethin to do with it?

    asus p5e-vm overclocking thread

    hmmmm, changing the FSB makes a huge difference! i tried lowering the multipler to 7.5 and changing the FSB to 500. so ram is running 1:1 at 1000Mhz, and CPU clocked at 3750MHz. left all voltages on auto and orthos ran 5 hours stable. i can live with that :P

    Kingwin Heat-pipe Direct Touch CPU Cooler @ [H]

    +1. mounting horizontally made my cpu 10C colder. i wouldn't go as far as not recommend it, it's still a great cooler for a great price. even under load i'm not passing 45C.

    asus p5e-vm overclocking thread

    everything else is on auto. to my knowledge you only need to adjust the NB and DDR if you're overclocking the RAM right?

    asus p5e-vm overclocking thread

    according to real temp i idle at ~28-30C and load at ~45C, so that's not a problem. i've scanned the massive thread, but very little of it has posts of what settings were. there is one towards the end which had the vcore at 1.5...which is more than 1.4 which means there's a possibility of...

    asus p5e-vm overclocking thread

    hi guys, i'm struggling to get my e8400 overclocked. i don't want to exceed the intel recommended max of 1.3625V, and at that voltage the highest i can get is 3779MHz (vdroop = 1.264V according to cpuz). i'm orthos testing right now. 3880MHz failed for sure. i've tried getting it to run at...

    Kingwin Heat-pipe Direct Touch CPU Cooler @ [H]

    yeh please change the orientation of the kingwin 12025D. i have the same model and i idle at 28C and load at 40C. i have a tower, and for me it works best with the heat pipes parallel to the table. i haven't tried mounting it with the S-curves on the bottom, simply cuz it doesn't look as cool...

    Even the smallest overclock = BSOD

    correct me if i'm wrong, but i thought AMDs do not overclock very well if at all. even the black edition with multiplier unlocked struggles.

    need advice on CPU cooler for Q6600 and Abit IP35Pro

    argh, i'm probably sounding like a fanboy, but it really annoys me when people think the TRUE is the behold all of cpu coolers. you guys need to read reviews!!! every review i've read that puts the TRUE vs the xigmatek has temperatures within 1-2C of each other. i got my cooler (kingwin...

    To lap a Xigma HDT-S1283

    this is incorrect. http://www.frostytech.com/top5heatsinks.cfm the TRUE is currently #3, #1 and #2 are HDT.

    To lap a Xigma HDT-S1283

    if clearance is an issue, get the D1284 instead, it's performs better too. and wow taco...8c and 12c drops are pretty sweet!

    Remounting Xigmatek S1283?

    maybe that link from tomshardware is for the mobile... BAH i don't know! i just know the difference from one orientation to the other is 10C on my computer. you should try both. i actually have a kingwin revolution, which is the same as the xigmatek s1284, and has 4 heat pipes instead of...

    Remounting Xigmatek S1283?

    double check where the cores are... the link i posted previous to artic silver appears to be for an older generation... for the E8000 series, the core appears to be horizontal rather than vertical, as seen here: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/wolfdale-steroids,1777-6.html i'm...
