good job!!!
:)
 
i see you upgraded some stuff.:D got rid of that asus p4t-e, and got some ddr, pc 2700. now your kickin a**. i will be there next week, for i have a broken pin on my norty. but, i have a vapochill, and i will be running my stuff at 3300, 165 fsb, and it will like yours, be rock stable. i cant wait i will post next week when i get my new processor from intel, watch out.:D
 
ps, i noticed that you have a vapochill. you should be able to run that system at 3500, stable, depending on your ram. dont quite know about the consair, but, with kingmax, you would be able to run at a fsb of 162, and that would result in a 3564 clock. i hope you can get it with the consair, cause i got 512 on order of the kingmax, and i am supposed to have a 2.2, but i dont think that i will be gettin it, so that means that YOU have to be the first one on our forum to get to 3500. i HOPE you can do it with the consair. anyway, i KNOW i WILL be at 3300 when i get my norty back from intel. happy overclocking.:D
 
Yeah, changed that Asus board, did not like my overclocking @ all .. This Gigabyte kicks A-- .. anyways, I'm pretty sure I can go higher, it's just a matter of finding the correct memory timing, currently using 2-5-2-2 .. I'm also going to try Samsung pc2100 with DIMM Overvoltage feature and see if I can hit higher, I know this northy baby can hit even 3.8 or so, but I'm looking @ 3.5 for a 24hrs machine :) .. Thanks again for the feedback!
 
i'm so freaking jealous you guys getting those chips overclocked so high. now i have blow off either a vactaion to Fl in the next couple of weeks or hang gliding lessons for a new northwood system.

Thanks :) .. I think I already have plenty of juice (400w) .. my system doesn't reboot/can't make it to post/can't make it to windows .. I can boot in windows with 3.5 easily, but as soon as I benchmark, window freezes on me.. I'll see what the new mobo will do, heard alot of nice things about it.. I'll keep you updated. Thanks again for the feedback :beer:
