    Need help with monitor upgrade

    Looks like I get ~45-55 FPS in Eve Online and 55-75 in FarCry2. I am trying to think what I have that might put it? Arkham Asylum? What FPS do you think is a good target?

    Need help with monitor upgrade

    Thanks for the reply. Can you recommend a good benchmark tool? I want to measure what I am getting now in terms of frame rates so I can estimate the hit I would take. Of course a GPU upgrade is always an option as well I was just concerned that the new cards wouldn't fit my MB/power supply.

    You CAN drink FluidXP and not die. *cringe*

    Some of this stuff has made its way past my lips as well. It tastes really sweet...but nothing I will go back for seconds of. As for toxicity etc....nothing to worry about with FluidXP. There is another story on their site about a cat/dog who drank a mess of it...and is still doing great...

    Overclocking...so far (E6600)

    We have almost the same exact system. I am not seeing performance anywhere near as good as you are however. I can't get a boot over 3.4 without a 1.51V core. Once I am at that point I can boot all the way up to 3.8 or so. Not stable in 3Dmark06 with those settings however. The best I...

    Tried to get a photo of my settings but put the file in a text document instead :rolleyes: I will either link the file or list the settings I ended up with later tonight. So far the current settings at 3.55 seem stable. Memtest 86+ runs clean, as do super pi x2. Aquamark is good and...

    Need some help 1st OC....E6600/Striker

    Those are just the timings it auto sets when I plug in the mem speed. Those are the minimum voltages for the CPU I have found allow me into windows at 401 FSB or above. Like I said though....the actuals are coming no where near the set. FSB and SPP voltage I have left on Auto. I will...

    Need some help 1st OC....E6600/Striker

    Here's the latest.... Seems like I can get into windows up to around 410 FSB using 1.52v however stability is the question. I haven't been able to get Orthos to run anywhere over 360FSB. I started playing with other tests just for kicks. I am able to complete Sandra "burn in" tests or...
