holy shit... look at that overclock...

Athlon, get a better looking case man... -_- ur minor rig doesnt have to look so bad.

Overclock :O!!!!

I think you should spray your case black.

[russianboy]

Solid OC.



But still horrid proccessor! :p

Welcome Back AthlonX2, I missed you.

[newtekie1]

Hey Athlon, is 4.1GHz all that processors got? ;)

[Dippyskoodlez]

4ghz?

That thing should be doing 5 or 6ghz.. honestly.. o.O

I saw someone doing 3.6 using an SLK on a northwood based celeron back when the 1700+ was still hot stuff.

Celerons take off like rockets clockspeed wise.

[newtekie1]

They do take off like rockets clock speed wise, but tend to start to fizzle after the 4GHz mark, especially on air. After 4GHz they require a lot of voltage and being netburst processor they get very very hot. 4.12GHz is damn good for the stock cooler.

[russianboy]

Tell me, w/ the netburst archetecture, can you cook eggs & bacon on that thing?

[AthlonX2]

i would attempt to go higher if the motherboard had voltage controls,and im not to sure about voltmodding a 775 cpu...although that may be in the future..so what you see is on stock voltage which is 1.36 i believe..the temps arent to bad 31c idle and around 43c load..

[sneekypeet]

I say some better cable management is in order sir...lol

[Fox34]

Athlon, you traitor =D. The case needs some work, pant for one, and the hole should be covered with a grill, it would look way better. The wiring is great although., and also, welcome back

[Nemesis881]

Stock cooling??? no way..

[AthlonX2]

yeah stock cooling and stock voltage...

1/10 your case isn't nice. but the OC is good. unfourtinately, i can't rate a CASE with an overclock :(
