    Motherboard stuck in chassis.... help!!!

    Hey guys I have an annoying, I mean very annoying problem with my motherboard and it's attachment to the case. Well the issue is: There's one last screw on the motherboard that was probably tightened a little too hard. By doing so, the screw ultimately was tightened enough to bound on the...

    OCing with a DS3

    So about a week ago I went about OCing my Q6600 on its stock cooler just for fun. Got it to 9x333 (3.0 ghz) by upping the some amount. It ran hot, but stable. Ran prime 95 ver. 25.4 for hours, it was stable. Ran memtest and my memory was fine. However, after a few days when I go to restart my...
