Anyone checked to see when a q6600 throttles? (on coretemp)

Just curious what kind of range i have to play with overclocking to see if its worth my time

P.S. i should have got a dual core.. stupid hot quads

I was wondering when you are overclocking a processor (i think i'll be looking into OCing my q6600) what are the main things that increase the temperature. I.e. when you overclock is it mainly the voltage.. and therefore if the voltage remained the same would the temp increase at all? Also whats the...

I'd go with a dual core.. i have a quad and it runs pretty hot meaning that you are more limited in your overclocking ability and with games currently i would say the speed boost on the 2 cores offers a bigger benefit By the time the game really utilise the 4 cores (not just pass some of the work to...

Ireland has in fact banned the game as well

That was very interesting... you gotta wonder did the calf actually survive or would it have died of injuries later..

I imagine it has to have some sort of input plug to go with the monitor (i.e. feeding back inputs to the pc) rather then just the one that is outputing the information from the pc to the monitor.

Well i just ordered the Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme with a scythe 1600 rpm 120mm fan.. hope it was worth it

Anyone know if it fits in the p182 case with bad axe 2 in the vertical position i.e. so fan is blowing backward not up?

What fan would you go with on the 120 extreme?
I'd say you'd need around a 2000rpm fan.. though i know its the cfm thats more important

Does anyone know if there are some upcoming heatsinks etc.. that it might be worth waiting for not in that much of a rush.

Don't download the codec pack found here.. http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Video/Codec-Packs-Video-Codecs/Advanced-Vista-Codec-Package.shtml It is either a virus or just badly put together but it managed to create all sorts of problems on my computer with missing dlls (also Zelig by the soun...

Well then guess that codec pack is the problem.. is there somewhere on forums where i can post a warning for people thinking of dling it? P.S. Sorry for the language.. i guess its a bad thing i didnt even notice when i was writing it.. :oops: .. guess im just to used to the colourful way the irish t...

FWIW, I completely hosed an install of Vista by installing a codec pack, wouldn't let me open half the stuff in the control panel anymore, didn't have enough patience to figure out exactly what went wrong, so I just re-installed the OS and didn't use the codec pack anymore. was that codec pack this...

Hmmm.. In the last 3 days or so i have had programs/windows pop with warnings that i am missing .dlls now they have all been different programs and .dlls One was to do with a game.. another with directx and i just got one that appears to be related to nvidia software.. So i was wondering.. anyone el...

personally i recommend you Don't get the ninja.. i had issues with the clips being loose on it and apparently so have a lot of others.. why buy a heatsink you might have to modify or buy different mounting for it straight out of the box

what does it do?

an auto update on vista managed to mess up my directx (had a .dll missing) or at least i assume that the reason and not something more sinister considering i've had the computer all of like a week..

i wouldn't really consider it a "home" theatre .. but i imagine it would be quite funny to see that happening to someone

well i'd not buy it when its the same price in euros as it is in dollars... if not more... thats like a 33% markup on the price
