I'm sure there are at least a few other overclocking fanatics here. I'm pretty sure Tama overclocks, but there has to be someone else.
Make/model CPU:Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 GPU:EVGA Nvidia GeForce 9800 GT 1Gb DDR3 RAM:Crucial Ballistix 4x1Gb MOBO:EVGA nForce 780i SLI PSU:Antec NeoPower 650W Cooling CPU:Stock GPU:Stock RAM:Stock heat spreaders+homemade heatsinks Stock CPU:2.4 GHz GPU:600/1200 RAM:DDR2 800 FSB:1333 Current CPU:3.2 GHz GPU:700/1200 RAM:1080 FSB:1425 Desired CPU:4.2 GHz Not going to happen until I get a new cooler GPU:750/1600 Not going to happen because I still don't know too much about GPU overclocking RAM:1290 Not going to happen without some crazy cooling. It breaks the record for DDR3, but not DDR2. FSB:No goal here. Whatever I need to stay stable. Ideas My custom RAM heatsinks dropped my RAM temp about 5C, so that's always good. I'm going to mount some crazy fans to my RAM, try to lower the temps even further. If you haven't figured out by now, my computer is like a space heater. My system idles at 55 C. Throw some fans in this bitch. Maybe with blue LEDs, because that's so popular these days. |

2ms is marketed as grey to grey
5ms is marketed as black to black a 5ms black to black = 2ms grey to grey. aka they're the same thing, one just has a marketing gimmick attached to it. Buy whichever one you can get cheaper. |

I'm a CRT guy. I'm at 19 inches and 1920x1440 for my primary monitor. it goes up to 2048x1536 without any extra effort, but I don't use that because it leaves the refresh rate at 59 Hz instead of 85 Hz, and I like not being blind.

I've got plenty of room, so it's no issue. CRTs tend to have better colors than LCDs. I could drop money on an IPS but I'm too poor for that.

Main attraction for me is that it isn't supposed to be as loud. I doubt it will have the overheating/redring issues though. I'll be pissed if it does.
I need a new xbox regardless. I just don't know if I want to get an old used one or just get the new one. |

I hear the new one can't RROD. Not because they fixed the issue, but because they got rid of the red LEDs in the status ring.
