Took a while to get the heatsinks right for max comfort and speed. One complaint, I could never get to the bios, must be a strange chipset. And had an error I couldn't get rid of in my tests, it kept making an 'F' instead of a 'T'.

Make sure you attatched one of these (http://www.petrastechshop.com/12x38scdfuka2.html). From everything i've heard, those pens are SMOKING HOT.

Any chance of dry ice results?

I was getting ready to try it but my wife slapped me silly upside the head. I forgot, holding a Diced pen wouldn't be good for my fingers. I can only do so much for science, sorry Petra!

I call BS...how can you possibly write with a straight-jacket on?
No doubt you lured some unsuspecting kid with the promise of nutty-bars to do the dirty work for you! Right dastardly that is!

I think you need to run some stability tests, the OC'ed handwriting is a little illegible. :thup:

this is my kind of humour!

I agree - write out pi to 32 million digits and time the results. thanks. Dont be skimpy and only do 1 million now. This is a stability test you know

Also I think the memory is unstable, that exclamation mark wasnt there before!
Also, instead of "Petras" it looks more like "Defrag"

No the Perta's Pen are notorious for a cold bug when you get down to around freezing temperatures.

Have you tried alcohol as coolant? I hear Vodka has best heat transfer properties.

This is in the wrong section. This should be under extreme cooling
you FAIL!

yes and works wonders for blood cells too! those buggers get hot and need proper cooling once and a while.

But can it play Crysis?!
Conumdrum
03-16-09, 10:59 PM
It beat Crysis easy. It's got a sharp pont that destroyed the CD so it can never be used. Not only did it win, it won hands down. Even the non-OC one won.


My pen is a great E-Pen.

Now thats a pen, to beat all pens!!!!!

My pen is better than all your E-Pens, it beat Crysis without even getting to the Bios screen. It's uber fast.

My E-Pen beat Crysis before the Bios loaded, RULZEZ!!!:screwy:

man, don't get such a big E-Peen over your E-Pen. :burn:

Your right, I toned it down.

Uhhh... :screwy:

Just remember, too much mounting pressure could crack the core, so you may want to consider using a shim ;)

you had better checked the warranty before oc, maybe you voided it...

You need a 12v battery and jumper cables- see what it does with some extra volts

dunno about that, you might melt the thermal insultion used in the die.... remember some people killed 45nm core 2s...

WHAT NO SIDE WINDOW!! *shunned*

My green Petra pen pushed my i7 920 to just under 4.1Ghz with HT and Turbo on. Love the OC power of this pen, well, the water loop that came with it may have helped just a bit....naaahhhhh lol.
