Thanks for the reply.. :) I just thought that a minor computation error in prime is a bit different from a system lockup or a failure to post. But I do understand that a memory OR cpu error might result in either result.. It means overclockers are a bit like a blind men trying to slowly...

I would second that completely. I am a new customer to OCUK as you were one of the few suppliers to even have a decent selection of 8800GT listed, let alone in stock! The changes to delivery dates were frustrating but of course outside of your control. A few suggestions for whoever designs...

Not sure I fully accept that is the case.. for example there is a big difference between an error in Prime95 (where the system keeps running) and a crash or lockup. So far I just have to try loads of different little combinations, with a growing Excel spreadsheet to track them all.

Mine is shipping but was ordered on (edit)22nd.. is your order status "Warehouse queue" or "printed at warehouse" ? If queue then it looks like it has not been allocated from batch (yet)

It seems to me that there are different types of instability that occurs during overclocking. Is there a guide that explains what the most likely causes and how to address them? e.g. four types of crash: 1. Failure to boot/BIOS/POST 2. Failure during OS load 3. Crash/freeze during stress...

Try http://www.guru3d.com/article/Videocards/468/1/ He tests a few games (alas not Crysis) but there are defo improvements in some.

This is true. I'd been thinking about my machine upgrade for the last three or four months, and had pretty much decided on GTS. It was only when I came to start ordering at the start of the month that I heard about the 8800GT - nothing in CustomPC mag for example! A lot of buyers will simply go...

Hehehehe I was wondering about what suppliers are going to do with G90 8800GTx/ultra/GTS and below.. unless they are on sale-or-return with the distributors! The only way to shift these would be to drop the prices..

Yes it probably is. I am doing the same on a 680i LT SLI and have been through four days of configure, test, reboot! Specs: cheapo spare Jeantech 350W PSU -Asus P5NT-WS (680i LT SLI) -intel Q6600 G0 + Artic Freezer 7 -2x2GB OCZ 2Gb Platinum OCZ2G8002G -Cheapo spare PNY 7200 video...

Thanks for the reply, your team's herculean efforts are not unnoticed!

Ah well.. looks like the Zotac AMPs are overdue as my order has not changed. Unless I missed the first 40 orders.. don't think so as I ordered on 22nd, not long after they appeared. I could have had an OC2 of course, but decided to cancel that one.

This made me laugh: http://ati.amd.com/technology/crossfire/faq.html Click on item 7: "What games work with CrossFire?" and spot the lazy marketing person..

Thanks for the update

Just off the phone, there was no update on the Zotac cards (guy didn't seem to know much about it so would not read much into that). He did say that they had *39* pre-orders so I would suggest anyone wanting one should order ASAP as I believe there were supposed to be 40 coming in. I also had...

No I believe it is (warehouse queue) to (printed) to (despatched).. I assume printed stage is when they have stock on the system. At least it was for my DIMMs this week.

Will do as well.. I would have thought running the ram unlinked at stock 800MHz would be a more stable approach, as I am only changing processor settings..

Ok, will try that.. seeing others in the Q6600 database suggests that should not be necessary - but every case is different.

Another Q6600 noob here.. Just trying out different configs for Q6600 + Asus P5NT-WS (680i board) Got stable system at 3.06GHz: 340MHz FSB, with VCore 1.4v - memory still at 800MHz an 1.8v, runs Prime95 okay. CPU temps 35 idle, 49 load. Change to 350MHz FSB and if won't even complete...

I called earlier this week to remove some memory on my 8800gt order (so i can test overclocking while waiting for 8800gt).. very helpful, didn't wait too long.
