Hrm, I'm kind of an Asus and Gigabyte fan actually, so if you could let me know which one of the one I listed is better....

E6420 not good ? Hrm, what would you recommend then ? I've heard that the one with 2mb cache does a better job OCing than the 4mb ones, is that true?

Also, the reason I'm going for the corsair is the price.. 500 or so only. What would you recommend as a better choice for that price? (i'm kinda new to this, I chose that solely based on the timing and price, and you're the first person I've had telling me that ram is bad.. should i go for the kingston hyper-x instead?)

Anyways, my main question still remains, between the gigabyte and asus, which would be the better mobo?

or should i invest 100 or so more for the p5be

Thanks in advance!

hehe no prob.. glad u like it.. but i thought i sold to u for at least 4 months already.. now only u got time to try ar?

address send via pm.. plz use fedex ok!

Haha...Yaya, now only play with it.
Manage to oc already, at 2.3GHz jz now. Got time try somemore

Bro, RM500 for that ram you're looking for with crap chipset is not worth it at all.
You'd better of spend your money on rams that uses Micron D9GMH such as Crucial Ballistix & Crucial Ballistix Tracer Rams.

Kingston Hyper-x is also using crappy chipsets.
Don't even think of going there.

These two models of rams confirmed to use Micron D9GMH rams.
Google more on Micron D9GMH chipset if you want to know about it's performance.

This ram below, goes not more than RM500

Example:

@irenic...i wonder how u managed to keep ur QX so cool with that geminiII...i have tried changing the fan direction from sucking to blowing but w/o any diff...the load temp based on coretemp is damn too high...reaching 90-95c for all cores...idling at 58-63c...probably there's contact problem...seems that i need to take all stuff (mobo and all) out and re-do it all over again...
btw, ur rig in AC room or non-AC room?

Shawty is right,the XMS2 only the first 2 batches using D9GMH,the rest batch is suck...as for the Hyper-X also first few batch using d9GKX or GMH.

as for remysix,i think he's using a very nice fan and thermalpaste?

last time i was in AC room, but when my AC kong few days ago, suprisingly i can clock further with just a portable AC blowing towards me + my pc ( i also hottt haha)

well, the temp i got for my gemini + quad core is nice, even without AC.. here is one tip, u need to put a lot of as5 on ur processor, and a tiny bit on the centre of ur gemini.. well u might feel weird, coz normally a tiny bit on the processor is enuff.. but that's it for gemini.. last time when i first installed the gemini, i applied the normal amount of as5 (like other heatsink) and the idle temp was around 70c! so i put a lot and the temp dropped to 40c idle hehe..

hope this might survive ur problem

hmm another thing to those interested with gemini..

from my experience, geminII is damn good with quadcore.. i already use 2 qx6700 (one non ES and one ES) and manage to get very nice idle + load temp for both processors..

but when i put a dual core C2D under gemini, the idle temp is around bt vx only.. and full load temp is higher that my quad cores' temp!

so i guess, thats the reason in some reviews that are using c2d as their test rig, the gemini performance is average only..



yeah my as5 is special.. it doesnt has cap, so i balut it with lots of tissue..

my fans are allngap's nmb fan..

how about the 6320?

btw, what is the highest clock 4 ur 6420??

I don't know about e6320, never use before.

Highest clock?
I didn't even find the highest clock for that processor.
Use it for a month then sell it back.

Why?
Because i start to hate my e6420 once i found out that it can't even run at 400x8 @ stock vcore like all 4 units of e6600 i've tested including the one i'm using right now. [2 Retail e6600, 1 OEM e6600 & 1 ES e6600].

e6420 is the biggest regret on me buying a PC hardware.
Damn i hate that processor.

haha....shawty,u r unlucky only,my friend E6420 can do 3.6GHz with 1.45vcore,but dont know the batch.

anyway,irenic,u mean u apply a lot of the AS5?

thanks a lot irenic for the tips...gonna put all of my AS5, actually not many left...hmmm maybe can add the 3-year old AS3 as well

hmm,
Put a lot of as5 on ur processor, and a tiny bit on the centre. I think i gonna try this. My idle and load temp is not good.

this makes me hav 2 reconsider whether i should top up 4 an e6600 or not

yeah!!!

E6600 conroe is a good overclocker.

But depends on batch, from what i heard from my friend. those newer batch like L70**** not good at all in OC. Even have problem reaching 3.6ghz

i just bought 1 e2160 yesterday to fill my free time.. and i didnt show any mercy to this lil processor, i straight away put it at 3.65ghz and yehaa.. pcmark stable

sound like you really has deep pocket... is't Orthos stable?

damn, too long didn't touch my rig already
