after having thie Giga since the launch I think I've got as much as I can from it. Next stop is a Classified. :D With it's beefy PWM I am hopeful there is more in this cpu even 'only' on cascade :up:
Cheers guys :)

he's already done some on HWBOT but its a waste of time with ATI cards for points
ATI is too slow in vantage :(

sweet stuff booj, that W3540 is one nice cpu and Kayl's cascade magic :D
Shame about your kingstons memory, RMA from Kingston Australia via Simms International in OZ is fairly easy process but bad news is Kingston has new 2000C9 Tri channel kits to replace the elpida hyper ics, and new kits aren't elpida hyper apparently :(
but here's to 700pts mark booj :)

Thanks mate :) yeah the cascade and cpu match perfectly :D No cold bug at all.
Interesting info regarding those Kingstons. Perhaps Elpida non hyper or samsungs? I'm off to google those.
Maybe i'll stay with 2 sticks only for now. I've been expecting them to fall over anytime, but after months of use they are still going strong even with 1.8v+.

Thanks ZoLKoRn :) When it arrived I was very happy to see it was a 3845B :cool:

no problems, good to see a cpu that can handle a cascade cold bug i7 wise, really helps with fine tunning :yepp:
