    Back to basics - Coolermaster 335

    Some pics of my heavily loaded CM 335 (with 8HDs = 11TB). It's a definite budget case, but I'm going back to basics and it's all I need. Options for cable management is poor. But hey, not like it has a window or anything :)

    Q9550 at 3400Mhz

    Am now running a Gigabyte EP45-UD3P with a Q9550 (at 3400Mhz and 400Mhz FSB and) Settings are Vcore 1.25v PLL 1.5v CPU Term 1.2v CPU Ref 0.76v It looks stable, but do these setting "seem right"? I keep reading about dangerous PLL voltages and 45nm chips being destroyed by setting PLL to...

    Vista striped volume - reinstall?

    Have Vista x64 (Ultimate) set up nicely on a 1TB C: drive. Not raided or anything. I then have x3 1TB that I have set up as a 3TB Striped volume using Vista Disk Management (no hardware or software RAID used - just the Vista "Dynamic Disk" functionality ). Now I want to reinstall Vista x64...

    Q9550 - can't get to 400Mhz FSB

    Been running a Q6660 at 8x400 for some time. No problem. But plug-in a Q9550 and try and run at 400Mhz FSB and it blue screens or it fails to boot. Even running 7x400 doesn't work - so something odd about the motherboard (ASRock P45TS) rather than CPU. Wonder if something to do with motherboard...

    Asrock P45TS (from Asus P5Q Deluxe)

    I actually downgraded from a P5Q Deluxe to an Asrock P45TS. Basically, moved from an all singing all dancing board to about the cheapest P45 board you can get. And it's great. I wasn't using any of the added features of the P5Q, so downgraded and have released a chunk of money from ebay when I...

    "Upgraded" from P5K-E to P5Q Deluxe - Don't bother!

    Bit of Friday night madness, I ordered the new board off eBuyer and it arrived Saturday morning. Switch over was painless and no need to re-install Vista. A few points Pros 1) The overclocking options look more varied. But only needed to change the same settings to get my Q6600 to 3.2Ghz. 2)...

    Just completed Crysis

    .. wow, what a rush - especially that last level. Completing the game feels just like when I watched the first series of 24. You think back on everything you went through and how the things that were important at the start seem so far ago and how all the characters have changed from start to...

    Coolermaster Centurion 5

    New here, so be kind. PC is getting a bit old, but gave it a new home in the Coolermaster case recently. Love this case; plain, simple, functional, well filtered with a 120mm fan at the rear. Also like the way the fan controller and internal drive enclosure (in the top 2 bays) matches perfectly...
