    VID Question

    Hey Everyone, I recently got my Q6700. I checked its VID using CoreTemp. It is listed as 1.3250v, which I was reasonably disappointed about. With CPU voltage set to Auto in the bios of my Asus P5Q Pro, voltage registered as 1.28v in CPU-z. When I set the voltage in the bios to 1.3v, it...

    Hey Guys, I wanted to get your input. I recently picked up the VisionTek HD 4870 from Frys. It was the $210 (after MIR before tax) price. It was too good to pass up. I did however have a question. After tax, the cost of the card was $230. I can get the EVGA GTX 260 SSC for the same price...
