Does your motherboard require the 12v 4 pin connector to work, your PSU should have one, Its a square 4 pin plug usually with yellow and black wires.It plugs into your motherboard to supply power. tommysdad

Run with a Gainward HD3870 XT? How would this monitor fair with a Gainward HD3870 XT 512,I play TF2 and COD4 .I would also be using it with a Macbook Pro for photography workflow.I may go crossfire with the 3870XT when I hit the buy button for this LCD. I`ll have to sweet talk tommysmum...

I have the quad core 6600 GO .I use CS2 and Capture One 4.Batch processing Raw files is a lot faster. Turnaround time from photoshoot to client has been reduced.CS2 loads in about 5 seconds,no I don`t think a quad core is overkill.However I have my Q6600 overclocked to 3.7 ghz over the standard...

I was thinking of buying OcUK 24" monitor and OcUK Geforce 8800GTX ,do I really need a 24" monitor?.With a few OcUK 24" units being RMA`d at the moment I`m in two minds. My system is used for gaming and photo processing.I can go over budget slightly,any advice is much appreciated, ATI or Nvidia...

I know but it works out cheaper than BT.I have been with BT in the past and had a solid 2mb connection and was very happy (line only was good for 2mb).Anythings got to be better than Pipex though :mad: :mad: thanks tommysdad

I can`t find any reviews on Postoffice homephone and broadband extra.I`m migratiing from the terrible Pipex midi and Anytime phone package and the postoffice pricing looks good.The negative reviews of PO I have seen are by customers who cannot configure their email so they rubbish a service...

I was having trouble assigning key strokes to my G5 for COD4,after a little digging around I found this nifty little program which enables all options on all buttons in setpoint. It also lets you adjust the usb poll rate.;) http://www.mstarmetro.net/~rlowens/uberOptions/ A fix for...

Good Job ;) , You`ll be up there on your own, still can`t get past 420 :( believe me I`ve tried !. It`s good to see air beating custom water rigs. :D tommysdad

Hi , my pcie voltage is left to auto, MCH voltage +0.1, FSB overvoltage + 0.1,my v core is at 1.5375v to get a stable 420x9 @ 3780 ghz. I can`t boot higher no matter what. Have a look at this .( clocking section) http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=17636047 tommysdad

I have a P35c DS3R and the same ram, by default my board boots the ram at 1.8v ,you need to adjust the DDR overvoltage in bios.I have mine at +0.4 (2.2v everest reads it as 2.1v). present settings mem 4,4,4,12 @ 824 mhz ,SMM 2.0 , performance enhance ,standard it will also run stable...

I tried last weekend but my board wouldn`t boot at 420 fsb .I think its at its limit.I`ll try again soon. UPDATE: just tried it , won`t boot at 420 fsb, even tried 1.6v. I`m more than happy with a stable 3.7 ghz with CS2 & Capture One both loading in around 5 secs ,,, result ! tommysdad

forgot to mention my cores are within 1 degree of each other , much better than it was. I`ll settle for that.

My idle temps have been reduced by 4 c ;) ,I`ll prime it later for load , well worth the money !!! :D tommysdad

Thanks for clearing that up ,,yet again :D tommysdad

What operating system do you have , 4 gig won`t run with XP , I read this somewhere ,can someone please confirm this ? tommysdad

Thanks for the explanation Cob, I got my cpu stable. I`ll have a crack at the memory now tommysdad

Hi , at the moment I have 5 x 120mm fans in my case ,I will be adding 2 more on the side panel (work in progress). I have them connected to a fan controller,Its not rocket science to fit either. http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=BB-002-ZA&groupid=701&catid=57&subcat=189 you...

Does standard setting make the system more stable when overclocking ?. tommysdad

I spent all last weekend lapping ,I had to mask off all the fins in the end.I was aiming for 3.8 but temps got a bit toasty.I`ll try the 2p trick later in the week to see if we get different readings.We are both at the same speeds and roughly the same temps...

I might give this 2p trick a go,I only feel comfortable re-seating my TRU ex with the motherboard out and infront of me, it gets a bit tricky (it`s sharp isn`t it :D). Nice clock on air mate !! Please keep us posted on the results, Cheers tommysdad
