Kyle doesn’t have to ban me, I am banning myself. Sorry for the bad behavior, its only my second build, was just trying to learn something and make this pc as nice as I could, I took the criticism too personal and for that I won’t return, that will make Tsumi happy, stay cool man.

You don’t even own any of these products you constantly babble on about, so how can it be important to you in any personal way? You are not even contemplating purchasing any of these products that you have gathered so much endless material on! You write the phonebook to people on every...

Thank you so much, those are the videos I have been watching and everyone is saying “Go Higher Mhz with Ivy!” So I thought I was making the best practical and prudent decision over time by getting a good buy on 2133. Ivy's memory bandwidth and Z77 have changed the playing field...

Its not that I want "the best" I just want something that can keep up with increasing demands in speed, today it's 1600 in two years the base is 2133mhz I thought it prudent to plan ahead and save by keeping the memory longer, but no one seems to get that. I try to purchase hardware knowing...

Spoken with great emotion. I felt your anger and strong accent! Your extremely attractive wife must be very happy.

Thanks man, I wanted them four years ago in college with my first build, no way I could afford them back then Corsair Dominator GT was like $1200 or $1600, crazy. Now my second build all the work might pay off, trying to really love it.

Maybe they are ok with spending a little more for some speed they might use later on and to get a nicer looking aesthetic when looking thru a side 650D window panel that hides the admittedly ugly Noctua fans that are most awesome, that was my simple goal.:) Whew, venting feels good. Ok...

So you are an enthusiast yet unfamiliar with Noctua fans? hmmmm. Well I do know you so enjoy your acronyms, so here is one for you FO, dear God you're a loser beyond belief.

I can see why new people don’t stick around at this forum, a handful of you don’t have jobs, sit around all day here and here, talking tech, about products that are out of your reach because you sit around here all day. I don’t think $120 is too much for RAM, if your budget...

If this isn’t thread-worthy I stand corrected, just seemed like a great price and the forum seems slow about now so thought this the best way to get the information out to others. This Dominator GT 8GB 2x4GB 1.5v 2133Mhz kit came out last year at $499.99, got it from Amazon for $119.99...

In 30 years, I'll be 61 and need a C2D just for my dick. Ok really signing out, just couldn't help that one, made me laugh.

PhD? I only have an MD just research and I cannot make sense out of this Ivy mess, too much Neurobiology, not enough Fluid Dynamics I guess. I'm young, don't see patients, I write, no malpractice insurance, I love it. Why do I feel the need to share this? It's boring to others, hmmm. Signing...

If a temperature reading at the 22nm level does not equate to an increased temperature reading in the room, I don't care if RealTemp says 100C.

I even installed LED lighting in the office just to cut down on the heat and am moving from a CCFL monitor to LED for the same reasons. Thanks so much for your help. Moving from a Core2Duo and an X48 motherboard with a northbridge that runs so warm, the heatsink would give 1st degree burns...

For extended use at stock speed 3.5Ghz, running office apps 8 to 10hours, in Florida and Summer is coming, my greatest concern is having to turning the air down for the entire house, just to keep my single room office from overheating. For this circumstance Ivy is a better choice over Sandy...

Give it another chance, you are still within your 30day window.:)

So there is hope for Ivy, less heat pushed out of your chassis, less heat distributed into your working space. Explain further please. So if all the proper laws of thermodynamics are still in place, Ivy is a success at stock speeds and overclocked? I'm doubting no one, just trying to...

Exactly, so all these reviewers are just oc'ing and calling Ivy a thermal dud, simply because the nanometer cores run hotter? Who cares if your room runs much cooler? I should have said, they are measured warmer. Maybe they don't run hotter, if dissipation is just poor at the nanometer level.

So what we should really be measuring is the temperature of the exhausted chassis air instead of looking at the temp of the nanometer core, is that what you are saying?

That's my major concern, the space heater effect over time.

Really? Tell me more, are you running your 3770K at 3.5? How about extended use office apps for hours? I guess you haven't had time for that yet sorry. Congrats!

One member here, had 3770K idle stock temps in the teens 14C 18C, using two rads. Hoping I can at least stay in the 20s with an H100.

It looks great, thanks. Still more secrecy about thunderbolt. weird.

Maybe a dumb question, but how satisfied were you with temps and performance at 3.5Ghz? Thanks man.

The Rampage 4 Extreme was around $459 when released, hoping it doesn't go that high, but $380 to $425 wouldn't surprise me. The Asus rep says native thunderbolt will be on two skus. And he had the P8Z77-V Premium sitting in the background of the video, but was not able to release any information...

Just figures the mobo I chose like two months ago the Asus M5E, is going to be the last Z77 available. I think thunderbolt may have something to do with it, since the native thunderbolt boards from all manufacturers were not released Z77 round one. Asus does have the “TB” header on most of their...

It's here, whoa, I can't believe how small the box is. Must not be a hsf inside, that's cool. It's super dope.:D

In the silicon lottery, how do you know if your cpu is a quality bin or not? Will it make a difference if just running at stock speeds? My 3770K should be here in about an hour, whoa, first quad core, Penryn to Ivy sweeeeet!

Nice! Keep us posted!:)

ZING. We are always basically saying, it's how we talk, we also use words like essentially and fundamentally. It's how we talk.

Reconsillyation, 3770K on the plane arriving on the morrow, thanks Amazon. wink wink!;)

Dude you've been here 9 years and you act like a 5-year old, come on move forward, if not for anyone else, for yourself...

The driver comes highly magnetized but when you put the bits in the end and position it in the little $6 dollar Wiha magnetizer, it can pick up an entire box of screws. I don’t think the magnetic field at the tip end would have any adverse effect on a motherboard (powered down), for the few...

Don't think I would call any screwdriver precious, just precision, hahaha. But good point, I need to up my game, thought the brand was clearly visible, any search would yield results but ok. Yes the tips, they are called bits, are in the handle but they don't rattle around, there is a large...

Wow, a strange twist in my 3770K order from Amazon. It seems someone in Amazon shipping Kentucky marked it as “shipped” threw it in their El Camino and drove it home. So UPS generated a label for it but never received it. Amazon is investigating their shipping dept. seems I am not...

Good stance, but the majority of the populous does not overclock as a daily event. Sorry.

Way Off topic but still cool, I don’t know where else to post this great stuff. It’s like the Noctua hardware, so far out there so amazing, but does anyone know about it? Just sharing pc tools. They just kick ass over Stanley and Craftsman and all the other mainstream brands...

Loving your lower chassis temperatures, tell me more!:D

"It's just Sandy Bridge and all the sudden it gets Stupidly Hot" I love that line.
