    965BE max voltage / overclock potential

    Yeah, I thought stock voltage was supposed to be 1.4. I'm not sure now. I wonder if I should mess around with the HT link speed or any of that jazz. The last bit of overclocking I did was Socket-A days, taking a 2500+ barton and turning it into a 3200+ or whatever it was. Back then it...

    965BE max voltage / overclock potential

    Stock voltage for now, which I guess is 1.44 according to the bios.

    965BE max voltage / overclock potential

    Right now I got a solid 600mhz overclock on my 965be with just changing the multiplier to 20, haven't even touched the voltage yet and it seems to be mostly stable. It blue screened once after I tried out a multiplier of 21 after getting stuck in the endless reboot cycle when I got ballsy and...

    ASUS Official Poll - When do you plan to upgrade and why?

    Currently using a M4A87TD-USB3 board with a PII 965BE, and while it's working perfect for now. I'd like to upgrade in the future to a board that has the following features. 1. Crossfire support that runs both PCI-Ex16 slots @ 16. 2. 2 PCI-Ex1 slots 3. 1 PCI-Ex4 slot 4. The ability to...

    New and Improved Watercooling Sticky - Post Your Systems Here

    I actually got in on the same deal, but still, it's annoying. I have 6 fans, 3 blowing air into the radiator from the bottom, and 3 sucking air thru it and out of the case on the top. Basically, push on bottom, pull on top.

    New and Improved Watercooling Sticky - Post Your Systems Here

    That's a pretty sweet idea about the card reader like that. I wish I would have thought of that in my build. I only have one complaint about my 700d watercooling build. The right side of the case could have had a an 1/8th of an inch of room between the side panel and the main chassis, no...

    New and Improved Watercooling Sticky - Post Your Systems Here

    Holy crap. I can't believe how effective water cooling is. My above setup is AWESOME. With prime95 running for about 3 hours now, my CPU reached a max temp of 37C (98F) and then stabilized at 35C (95F). That's insane. That's only like 22F more than the ambient temperature of the room my...

    Post your "rate my cables" here

    Kind of a rush job with swapping over to a 700d from a Lian Li PC60 and going watercooled. Think I did a fairly decent job hiding cables though.

    New and Improved Watercooling Sticky - Post Your Systems Here

    Started leak testing mine last night before I went to bed, this morning no leaks, so I figured it was time to fire her up and see what I could get.

    Explain this to me

    I figured it was something like that, It's been several years since I built a new computer and several years since I've overclocked so I wasn't sure what exactly was going on.

    Explain this to me

    I have 8gb of Corsair DDR3 1600mhz in my computer, Asus M4A87TD board with all 4 slots occupied with 2gb sticks, Phenom II 965 processor, I started goofing around today overclocking it, and I noticed that before when I had everything on Auto settings that the memory was only running at 1333mhz...

    Windows Home Server FAQ

    I know it doesn't officially support raid, but I thought that was more of a "doesn't support software raid" thing than a "not supporting hardware raid". Anyone had any luck getting a true hardware raid controller to work under WHS?

    Waterblock for a 965BE

    Yeah, that's what I'm trying to do right now, but it seems like most of them out there don't list supporting the socket or saying "hardware included to support it". Instead I'm reading a lot of "certified for core i7" BS. The few that I do see, are from brands that I've never heard of, and...

    Waterblock for a 965BE

    I'm guessing everything out there will work with socket AM3 for the most part? It would be nice if some companies out there would actually get off Intel's cock and say "Hey, our shit works on AMD too."
