Anyone knows what is the best tool to monitor your Vdimm in Windows apart from Everest?

I happen to know that Everest is not quite reliable. I also notice that it reports my Vdimm to be 2.1V when I had +0.5V in the BIOS.

If you enable the thermal control, etc, I don't think it'll burn out? I think AMD's are more prone to burnings than Intel

QUOTE(mmohdnor @ Dec 5 2007, 09:31 AM) i juz use the windows version of bios update (gigabyte @bios). easy. few clicks and restart pc This is interesting. Previously, I always do it from DOS but if doing it in Windows is just as good, I'd really like to try it out I believe the software is a lot matured and better these days. |

I don't have a boot up CD that can mount my drives in NTFS as yet
Any guides to do it? If not I'll have to resort to Windows, lol. |

QUOTE(jasondotcom @ Jan 2 2008, 12:45 AM) So any nice guys in here can assist me? Is it because im using built in graphics that is holding me back? Did you add up some Vcore? Although CPU's can be overclocked but sometimes you have to compensate those extra Mhz for additional voltage. |

I read about the new Wolfdale E8400 and looks like they are good overclockers. SSE4, 6MB cache and most of all 45nm which helps give lower temps and consume lesser energy.
A comparison between E8400 VS E6850 says it all I'm eyeing on this one for now. Well, I don't need the CPU power really but it's all about the fun of overclocking. |

The quads would go cheaper sooner or later, it's a matter of time. Those Pennryn would be nice, lesser heat

If you're using Ballistix, I think you can go 4-4-4-8 like me.
