    Any Q6600/Q6700 owners unable to break 3.0GHz?

    Well I finally got something to boot beyond 3.0GHz. I lurked moar at the EVGA overclocking forums and found some recommended settings suggested by a few people, did my own analysis, and decided to tweak mine some. Here's what I tried on a whim: CPU: 10x333=3.33GHz (1333fsb) Voltages: vCORE =...

    Any Q6600/Q6700 owners unable to break 3.0GHz?

    Early adopter. This is an upgrade on an older system, otherwise I would have steered clear of the 680i. Thanks for the offer, but I've just bought this chip and I'm not interested in having to turn around and sell it just yet. Could you post the voltages you're running those two chips at to...

    Any Q6600/Q6700 owners unable to break 3.0GHz?

    I'm a recent buyer of a Q6700 and a custom water cooling kit. Of course, the kit was bought with overclocking in mind, but I've hit an absolute roadblock. Nothing, and I mean nothing, will even BOOT beyond 3.0GHz @ 1.45v (set in BIOS, reading 1.42v here idling, 1.38v with Prime95 loaded). Even...

    n00b takes the plunge - kit here, questions

    Well, I've finally finished my build (this is being posted from said upgraded machine), and I'm pretty proud of it. It may not be the best looking thing in the world but it certainly gets the job done. I'm idling at about 26C on each core, and I'm going to overclock it soon. =) PICS...

    n00b takes the plunge - kit here, questions

    Hello all of you water cooling vets and newcomers! I've been frequenting here and some other forums that focus on water cooling for a while and have decided to take the plunge. With the purchase of my Q6700 I am also installing a water cooling kit into the case at the same time. Here's what...

    Watercooling has never been as sweet as in the new house

    In b4 condensation? In all seriousness, won't that put you at a risk for condensation if you're running that cold?

    How to play XviD in Vista

    Are you using the x64 version of WMP though? The 64 bit version of Vista defaults to use the 32 bit version. Meh, I suppose I could just switch to 32-bit and stop being stubborn... >_>

    H.264 Splitter for x64 WMP 11

    With the advent of ffdshow64 builds, I'd like to play some H.264 encoded .mov files in Windows Media Player (64-bit). I've gone through and manually enabled the x64 version of WMP (/SwapTo:64 and the registry edit), so any 32-bit splitter won't work. Haali's Media Splitter worked for me in...

    How to play XviD in Vista

    Just a quick question on the Combined Community Codec Pack- does it work with WMP11 x64? I'd like to run WMP in 64-bit, but I suppose I could go through and kick it down to 32 bit again. >_< I'm using Vista Ultimate.

    How to play XviD in Vista

    Have you tried the Vista Codec Package or FFDShow? I think both of them play XviD files just fine. EDIT: I know that the Vista Codec Package works, because that's what I've installed on my machine (Vista Ultimate x64) and it can play the XviD sample on their website just fine without...

    Anyone see this @ newegg?

    Back on topic... Looks interesting, but I'm leaning toward Home Premium or Ultimate. Give me a Newegg price on a Vista Ultimate 64 bit and I'd probably jump on it. Right now they only have them in like three packs. =P

    Thanks for fixing it King_N, it worked like a charm after that. =) Pocatello: Thanks. I'm at 77 and 80% (no particular core order), so I should get some points up for the [H]orde soon. =)

    Make sure you aren't running any other OpenGL application. OpenGL apparently only likes one app using it at a time. (Maybe the graphical version of FAH is running?)

    Hello all. I'm interested in joining your cause, and I've downloaded the console version of the Folding@Home client to my computer. However, I have a few questions before I get them both up and running. 1) I'm going to be folding on the PC in my signature. It's a gaming PC, so obviously I'll be...

    Habu and Eclipse II

    I looked through the forums for info about the Habu, and it just seems that you have to install both the 2.01 drivers and 2.01 firmware onto the mouse before rebooting to get it to work. If that's all, then it's not too big of a deal. Can anyone who has a Habu comment? I'd be interested in...

    What would you do?

    If you're making your own case, why are you going with microATX? A full sized ATX board would give you a lot more room and would probably have better cooling suited for gaming. Unless you physically can't use an ATX board. =/

    New build 2 choices what are your thoughts

    C2D FTW. Maybe bump the processor to an E6600 if you can afford it, I've heard that it's the best bang for your buck and that it's really overclockable.

    First time builder looking for advice.

    A Silverstone Zeus 750 Watt PSU is 8800 GTX SLI certified, so that should easily handle all your power needs. Case is awesome, I have one sitting to my right right now. Sidefan can be temperamental in my case, but it just needs a bump and it'll start spinning. Seems like it has problems off...

    Degraded RAID-5

    Caught me just a bit too late. I did it the hard way (moving the drives to different ports, cable switching, etc.) and was able to determine the faulty drive. No matter where I moved the thing it refused to be detected by the BIOS. I can't test the drive on another machine, and after nearly an...

    Degraded RAID-5

    Here's the only bit in the Event Viewer about the raid (nvraid). "The driver detected a controller error on ." There are five of these in succession, same hour, minute, and second. My guess is that's where the drive decided to kick the bucket. I don't think these drives have SMART. I may be...

    Degraded RAID-5

    (Cross-posted from EVGA forums.) Just a scheduled reboot of my system to finish uninstalling a program. When I got to the RAID detection part of POST, it seemed like it was hanging. I let it sit for about a minute, and it detected my RAID-5 array (my boot array with Windows XP). Status...

    Habu and Eclipse II

    Alright, I've looked through the forum thoroughly now and have seen that wired keyboards and mice are probably my best bet for gaming performance. I've looked at the G5 and MX518, but they both look uncomfortable to me. Looking at the Microsoft Habu, however, looks promising and has my needed...

    I've been looking around for a wireless keyboard/mouse set to replace my Microsoft Wireless Comfort Keyboard and Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 set (mainly due to the fact that it malfunctions with my new 680i build, and I have discovered that the Logitech set on another computer works just fine on...
