depend on ur luck... but again to reduce vdimm usage from 3.3 to 2.8 wit same ram speed... u will need long hours by burning... & sometime u cant see any results... burning is more like trying a luck & some ocer do got benefit from burning....;

lower the voltage of cos got no problem, but u losing out all the high fsb and timing. UTT produce less heat compare with bh5 and bh6. with the ram heat spread, i think u can use it for 24/7 even in 3.4v

simple really.
cuz i'm afraid if i leave it 24/7 at 3.4V and above,i'm going to bust my stuff.
Why would I want to have it at 250MHz when I'm sleeping and leaving it to download CSI right?

but i'll still overclock sikit-sikit...maybe within 10% lidat lor...gila meh buy DFI and UTT but dowan to overclock at all. Hehe.....

btw,why are those guys at xtremesystems.org having soooo many dead DFI's???
this is bloody scary man.

hrmm... i got a question here, between acbel 500W and enermax noisetaker 600W, which one is more suitable for dfi ultra D? (not going for sli) acbel has 3 12v rails with 11A, 21A and 12A while enermax has 2 12v rails with 18A and 18A. for acbel, the 11A for cpu is sufficient or not? i'm running amd64 Win 3200+

i'm using galaxy 6600gt (2.0 ns series), was wondering whether it has it own power plug or not, because the third 12v rail in acbel ipower 500W is for vga.

if there's other better psu than these, please pen down that too....

hrmm... there are more than 1 question there, sorry and thanks...

unless u gonna use 6800gt/ultra...then 2 12V rails would be sufficient...i think noisetaker 600w is good for both 6600gt or 6800gt/ultra...hmmm...even running sli...but if price would be ur considering factor...then with 6600gt, acbel 500w would be enuff...mine is noisetaker 470w...still good enuff...

that's thru also...but if the stuff can take it...will not be a problem...unless u plan to use it for another two years or something which i'd 110% confident not the case wink.gif ...as long as ur stuffs temp within good range and the oc is not giving ur system a headache...just leave it oc'ed...just the thought that u buy dfi and utt but 24/7 with only 10% is such a waste...
p/s: if u wanna trade off ur utt with my tccd, let me know...my tccd is still good for downloading... thumbup.gif

acbel 500w is more than enuff if u are not going to use SLI.. if u use SLI also enuff maa.. the enermax 600w is a better choice here, but well, i guess it is quite overkill laugh.gif
11A for cpu only is enuff.. other hardware will use the other 2 rails rite? unsure.gif
the 6pin connector is for SLI.. so if u running single 6600gt, u wont need it.

other better PSU, hmm antec 550w, enermax 480w, and of coz, OCZ powerstream 600w thumbup.gif

haha my words sound like that ar? tongue.gif hehe
erm SLI? i dunno.. i prefer having a high end card than dual mid range card..
but to have dual 6800gt or dual 6800ultra is super duper beyond my budget lol sweat.gif

and i personally prefer ATi card.. after sold my x800xt PE, i bought this 6600 for temporary use while now i'm waiting for the next ATi card.. hopefully the price will be 'good' la.. huhu.. i'm not used to nvidia card and i have never do serious 3dmark benchies with this card.. blush.gif

maybe dinster will bring the ocz powerstream in super bulk v3.0 rolleyes.gif
but dunno how much it will cost sweat.gif
i guess u can find the enermax at All IT... erm if the acbel 550w also has dual or triple rail with total +12v more than 33A, then i guess it is good la.. logically 550w > 500w hehe biggrin.gif
