wah. i went to the toilet you guys spam so much?
5th phase is only asus and gigabyte 790gx?
how hot it is? i need to find some reviews now.
bsod. need to get new parts. i want to try 1.7v.
im a lite gamer but i finish almost all the games i recently bought. game'less for now.
gfx is the reason why i went to overclocking to push my fps higher.
i have my long term plan to invest for my pc. hopefully that specs stays there for 8-10months.
i did many mistake buying my first pc. that's why im quite unsatisfied now.
luckly i dont change bf as i change my hardware? pants never mind and not undy.
btw my just test my need for speed prostreet. a little lag. dont know what the cause even at 1240x800.
yup, if my old pair of eye still serves me well, only asus, foxconn & gigabyte have 5 phase power.
lite gamer aint need super high end card like 4870x2, that's abit on extreme side ledi. u can actually cf 4850 by gettin a affordable but decent board. that's really more than enough even for normal gamin. ur on how many incher lately? dun tell me 30' will do...

what water cooling system you are going for? i read big water perform only around xigmatek s1283.
those hardcore one are too messy. any good and cheap one?
cheap wc still second to top air coolin, i would rather stay w d latter. if i were to go wc, i'll make sure it worths all d efforts (keep budget aside).

sold my phone. and arm and leg for that.
havent sell my soul yet. where is mr khoo?
waiting for his latest oc result?
any vid voltage fluctuation on your board? especially when you push 3.5g?
i'm still tweakin here, no worry, once i have d result i'll post here...
QUOTE(cyloh @ Aug 7 2008, 12:23 AM)
mr ah khoo is either asleep.. or he's facing the same thing i've faced back then.... phenom is frustrating.
give him time. I'm almost certain he'll get 2.6ghz stable.
thanks bro, but currently still workin on it... i'm too old for this...
QUOTE(imsmiko @ Aug 7 2008, 12:32 AM)
yes. it is frustrating but feel faster than x2 at 2.4g.
hopefully deneb will be better. if not i have to go to the darkside as well.it will kill your psu and even my vantec 550w.
graphic and color too bright and make you blind.

and lastly will explode.

well, darkside will still dominate even w/ d launch of deneb. sad but true. what keep me w/ amd is, i've been w/ amd for years (since i know what pc is) & they never failed me (thou lately they did fail me figurely

) but i'm not into figures that much or mad bout f@h like bro -pWs-...
i gotta confess that intel are really fast (taste it w/ e2140 b4 for bout 2 months), but they just aint my cup of tea.

hd4870 x2 paired with current amd processor is a waste
sorry to said that

not totally a waste, but for sure it'll perform better on intel platform.
you're not wrong for tellin d truth.
QUOTE(imsmiko @ Aug 7 2008, 12:49 AM)
phenom is good for normal use but sadly not for oc.
im checking the review for 9950be. this is a heat monster. my board can use this processor.

i reckon gud batch (late batch) of 9850/9950 b.e are gud clocker. they can reach 3.3~3.4GHz on average w/o d need of insane voltage. but still, when u compare 'em to intel quaddies, these phenoms will look normal due to their incapability of achievin high mhz...

after some hard works...
