finally, my new psu and ram are here.....

[james.miller]

well first of ive got the ram installed. It's twinmos pc3200, but unfortunatly its got M-tec ram on it:(. never mind though, because i saved a few penny's since the non-verified winbond stick were about £8 cheaper alltogether.

anyway. on to the first screeny. 200mhz DC, memory timings by spd (something like 8,3,3,2.5)

8/3/3/2.5?

That's pretty good for the NF7 board. Try tighening your timings and see how it does.

That's running 220x10.5 = 2.31ghz.

Nice benchmarks :)


On another note, what PSU did you get and where? (in dire need of one, my WD drive keeps powering down when the computer gets really busy :( )

[james.miller]

it's an enermax 365w and i got it from www.tekheads.co.uk

people have mixed reviews of them but so far it rocks.
