Wow, that's a freaken sweet lookin case! I have a question though. Since you took the metal grill off the front, you don't have the dust filter on there anymore. Does your system get really dusty and dirty on the inside after a while? How often do you go in and clean your case? And what's...

Woohoo!! Just got shipping confirmation and it's a SLACR!! For those who haven't gotten confirmation, I bought it yesterday around 3pm from the NCIX US site. It's shipping via Canada Xpress to San Diego CA. Good luck guys!!

Same here... I should've just waited to be sure... Will they let you exchange for a G0? We'd probably have to eat the shipping back to NCIX and shipping of the G0 back to us right? That might not even be worth it.

I also ordered mine yesterday early afternoon, and chose canadapost xpress. I got the email and when I clicked the link, I immediately recieved a phone call with the 4 digits. I put the digits into the input field and everything seemed to go in ok. It says my order has processed but I still...

Hey guys, I'm new to overclocking and have a question. I already purchased 2x1gb OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400 RAM which has 5-5-5-15 timings and required voltage of 2.1V. I also just purchased a Q6600 (hopefully G0 stepping) and I plan on overclocking it. My question is, does crappy RAM lower the...

I was wondering the same thing and I found this on the AS website. You just put AS5 onto the CPU in a line and let the HS spread it out in a "pancake" shape. So you don't spread it yourself. Hope this helps!

Thanks for all the info guys. Also, although the ram has 5-5-5-15 timings, is it still possible to tighten these from my motherboard? Or is the 5-5-5-15 timings mean that it is definitely unstable at lower numbers?

Has anyone purchased a Q6600 from antaresdigital.com? If so, is it B3 or G0? The price is just 276 and it's one of the few sites with no tax in CA. I'm also thinking of getting the Asus P5K for $138. Anyone know if that's a good board for OC? Thanks guys and good luck!

Hey everyone, I'm new to overclocking and need some serious guidance! I'm thinking of purchasing a q6600 with the new G0 stepping but I have some overclocking questions. First, I already purchased 2x1gb OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400 RAM and I'm not sure what numbers to try for overclocking. I've been...
