    Part Suggestions

    I have been running this pc 24/7 for 9 months.To my surprise,my GA-MA790GPT-UD3H bios was auto controlling my cpu voltage.The bios was reading 1.46v,at stock speed-3.2Ghz.I Was pissed off,when I found out,this is on the high end of AMD's recommended max voltage.I have been experimenting with...

    Overclocking AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition Deneb 3.2GHz

    I paid 160.00 10 months ago for a 955.The 955 and 965 are the same price on NewEgg @140.00 dollars..The difference between C2 & C3 in these chips are the model numbers GM and GI.The GM version have the C3. I have the cpu voltage down to 1.33v @3.6GHz,and it runs cool.I wonder How you determine...

    Overclocking AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition Deneb 3.2GHz

    This version does have the C3 stepping.The Motherboard was just supplying unnecessary voltage using the auto feature in the bios. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103808 Had trouble linking my image.This should work! http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1377/newlv.jpg

    Overclocking AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition Deneb 3.2GHz

    I lowered my cpu voltage to 1.33v and upped the multiplier x18. Idle 29C / load 40C @3.6GHz.I'm sure I could lower,but I'm really pleased with these results.I love these BE cpu's.I only had to mess around with the multiplier,and cpu voltage.I had to set my speed and timings @1600Mhz for ram,but...

    Overclocking AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition Deneb 3.2GHz

    The cpu voltage was set on auto in the bios.I always had the voltage set on auto in the bios,so it was getting 1.4v at the lower clock speeds.It wont anymore:) I went in the bios and dropped the voltage down by .025V,which lowered my cpu volts to 1.37v in my bios..CPUID reports 1.36v.I like...

    Overclocking AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition Deneb 3.2GHz

    I built this system last year.On stock speeds it idled at 30C / LOAD 42C.I wanted to do a small overclock,so I decided to just raise the multiplier in the bios.The only other settings I changed manually was my ram speed and timings.I raised the multiplier to 17.5, so the overclock is 3.5GHz.I...

    Connecting 5.1 Surround System

    I ordered this 5.1 surround system for pc gaming,movies ect... http://www.newegg.ca/Product/ProductReview.aspx?Item=N82E16836121006 I've heard that having a sound card can improve frame rates from taking the sound rendering off the mother board so I decided to try it out less expensive card...

    Building new long-term gaming PC

    Another thing I forgot to mention is the length of the GTS 250.I stand corrected.It is 9 inches.A 260 would fit in the 900,but it would be tight.The Antec 900 is a gaming case,so I wish they put more thought for video card clearance.This was a big oversight on my part when buying this...

    Building new long-term gaming PC

    Hey Danny! Its all good.We seem to have a difference of opinion,but I agree that the 902 & 1200 are overpriced.You had some good suggestions for parts on his gaming build,but not case:)Maybe are discussion has helped in is decision.You taking your position,I'll take mine.

    Building new long-term gaming PC

    I forgot to add,since all the fans are so cheap in this case you will need to replace all of the 3 fans,then you can spend more money on additional fans.I dont hear Antec setting up a support line for fan issues. The Tricool fans are not top of the line,but they seem to have less problems from...

    Building new long-term gaming PC

    I only went through the first 50 reviews on this case. 50 out of 1800.I think you can get a good indication to stay away from this case. this is what alot of customers think.CHEAP!I Secondly,It only comes with 3 120mm fans.Antec has 3 120mms & 200mm tricool preinstalled.So if you need more...

    Building new long-term gaming PC

    I agree.Cases are personal preference,but in your comparison,the person that did wire management in the 902 sure didn't make an effort to hide wires.In fact, he made no effort at all!The 250/260 are 10.5 inches long in length.I did have to take out the 120 internal fan for the video card to...
