    I love my Phenom II 555BE!!!

    You are right, but there is a one small... BUT... If I want to set the memory above 1900MHz (mobo bus above 237MHz) and I'll leave the DRAM voltage at auto (1.5V-1.6V), the system shows only 4096MB in single channel. After supplying DRAM with voltage of 1.8V or 2.0V it shows dual channel 8192MB...

    I love my Phenom II 555BE!!!

    As for "stable" topic - after running my setup for a few weeks and recently testing it with Prime95 and SuperPi, this is what I can tell you about reliability: 1) Although the memory is a Corsair Vengeance DDR3 rated 1866MHz, it won't get pass 1950MHz even at voltage of 2.4V. It's not a mobo...

    I love my Phenom II 555BE!!!

    I know this thread is one year old but I wanted to share my experience with overclocking AMD Phenom II X2 555. First my setup (as in sig): Phenom 555, Scythe Mugen 2 CPU cooler, ASUS Sabretooth 990FX, Corsair DDR3 2x4GB 1866MHz CL9 (CMZ8GX3M2A1866C9), be quiet! E9 680W CM. Using DOCP I used...

    Best bang for $300

    Ok, thank you - I'm going to wait for the GeForce 600-series to show up in stores but I guess even one GTX660 won't be faster than a pair of OCed 6850 cards. In April I'm probably going to buy another r6850.

    Best bang for $300

    I'm running 1920x1080 (or 1080p) and while my current setup is "just fine" a few more frames per second would be appreciated in ArmA2 and Battlefield 3.

    Best bang for $300

    Hi there, Flyinfinni I've a question on the same topic - I have a Gigabyte OCed Radeon 6850 1GB@820MHz. I'm wondering if I should get another OCed r6850 for Crossfire setup (PSU and mobo will be fine) or if I should sell my card and get one r7870 or one Gf 560Ti for (more or less) the same...

    HP ZR22W 22 inch IPS 1920x1080

    I do not own Dell 2209WA but I was also thinking about this model (before I got ZR22w), although I did see 2209WA on few occasions and the main difference is (obviously) aspect ratio and screen resolution. As Rendition wrote - HP ZR22w got really small dot pitch. It's a bit of a problem if you...

    HP ZR22W 22 inch IPS 1920x1080

    To be honest, I'd go for the ZR24w if it wasn't for the price (here we DON'T have the same prices as in the US - I suspect ZR24w here will cost more than 500$) and resolution (I wanted 1920x1080 because it's less pixels for the GPU to compute and display than 1920x1200 => you need a better rig...

    HP ZR22W 22 inch IPS 1920x1080

    Swivel Range is -45° to + 45°, not -/+90°. You can see how it looks (45° to right) here. But 45° is enough to put two monitors side by side. Also, since this LCD uses HP LCD Monitor Quick Release you can use some smaller HP monitor stand/base (I'm sure you can find one on eBay) and attach it to...

    IPS vs TN

    Well, after your post I did check that with my friend's Samsung T240 (24" TN) and this really is an issue with TN panels. And yes, some games and movies (not to mention photos) may suffer from that. I did check Torchlight (darker dungeon game) and it clearly looks better on my IPS LCD than on...

    HP ZR22W 22 inch IPS 1920x1080

    Yes, that's true, maybe even a bit less than half an inch.

    IPS vs TN

    Hello everyone, Just to add my own experience to the thread. Yesterday I received my new IPS monitor. It's HP ZR22w 21,5" 1920x1080pix. panel. Before this one I used various 17 inch TN LCDs (from Dell and HP). All I can say after using this S-IPS panel for two days is that I don't see big...

    HP ZR22W 22 inch IPS 1920x1080

    The head width (in vertical mode) is 30,1mm (a bit less than 11,9in) and the stand (base) width is 31.4mm (a bit less than 12,4in). So as dynamitejim said - the base is about 0.43 inches (or 13mm) wider. Well I hope the blurry picture was because of too low FPS (I ran it in 1920x1080 with AAx8...

    HP ZR22W 22 inch IPS 1920x1080

    My initial conlcusion after one hour of usage is - it was a bad call to take the S-IPS HP instead of faster TN monitor. Playing Team Fortress 2 was a blurry experience but maybe that's because I used TN for so long. The screen size (21,5") and aspect ratio makes this LCD a bit too small for...

    HP ZR22W 22 inch IPS 1920x1080

    kmetek, HP ZR24w isn't available yet at the aforementioned store nor at their supplier. They said "it should be next week". They didn't ship my ZR22w yet so I think both ZR22w and ZR24w are here in very, very low quantities (if there are any). After my order they also increased the price by...
