    Conroe CPU temp ?

    my e6700 runs 26-28C idle at stock 33C fully loaded at stock. When over clocked to 3.2GHz it still runs at about 28C idle and 36C fully loaded. Using Zalman 9500AT, it is still cool but further overclocking isnt going so well

    conroe rig not starting..

    Have you made any progress over the weekend ? Just an odd thought you say you've received a new bios chip for it. I take it you've replaced the one on the mobo with the chip they sent you. I would suspect there is something amiss there and the chip they sent you is a dud. Once you get the...

    Intel Update: Conroe!

    As Intel Guy has quite rightly pointed out the cpu has not officially launched yet, there has been no big announcements from intel about the chip. Therefore it isnt a paper launch yet because it hasn't been launched. We shall see in a few days what happends. This does remind me of the amd k6 and...
