Right now the system is ~silent, and I haven't seen any change in CPU temp. ~36c idle -58c load.... BUT with coretemp RC1 I get these weird spikes to TDP. The big unknown is the PSU... it could be starved and overheating (with load) causing it to be less efficient. If I flip the PSU fan it...

I have a quick question regarding case, cpu, psu airflow. Case: Silverstone Sugo SG06 Current setup: Blue dots represent holes in the case. The CPU cooler airflow is blocked by the PSU and HDD cage, there's a 20mm gap between the PSU and HDD cage, but cables run through there... On the...

Thanks for the info unclewebb. I tried setting CPU affinity and it won't go past 29x, with Throttlestop in goes between 28.00 - 29.85x. All the other cores ramp up too; not as much but ~27x.

It's used in an HTPC... all I know for sure, is it runs cool. I haven't done any comparative benchmarks with my main rig (i7 930 @ 4Ghz, Xfire 5870) While I was running IntelBurn and Pi I was also using Chrome and Paint Shop Pro, no major slow downs. With the H67 ITX + SATA2 SSD it boots fast...

Yes and yes.

I'm using a dGPU.

Hi. My Mini ITX case only has 1 x Slim Bay ~12mm high. Is there anything I can put there apart from a Slim bay DVD or Bluray drive? Thanks.

The cpu has a TDP of 45w. Is there anyway to get the proper Turbo? Thanks.

I have an i5 2500T and supposedly this will turbo boost to 3300Mhz. http://ark.intel.com/products/52212/Intel-Core-i5-2500T-Processor-(6M-Cache-2_30-GHz) I have an ASSRock :p H67M-ITX an there is no way to get the 2500T to go above 2.4Ghz. I've changed the BIOS ratio to use 33x, it shows...
