I'll take note of that and maybe grab a quad core next week, after I convince myself that it's worth it 
BTW I checked the BIOS and still no luck on undervolting. Zotac should know that HTPC boards need undervolting features D:

Re: Quad core in a mini ITX case?
Thanks, wasn't sure if they were BIOS features or not I'll take note of that and maybe grab a quad core next week, after I convince myself that it's worth it

Re: Quad core in a mini ITX case?
Thanks for the feedback! So it looks like it is at least a possibility. It looks like my overclocked E5200 has an 84w TDP according to PSU calculator pro. Does that mean the Q6600's 85w TDP would produce similar heat? (e.g. the E8400 claims a 65w TDP but consumes more power than other 65w C2D's at l...

The case has two fans blowing air over the CPU. The strange thing is that Speedfan and HWMonitor repor...
