Wasnt the most strict overclocking, but got the results i wanted without the fuss of worring about a few mhz here and there. If i had taken the case off i might have got 20-50 more mhz are SS, but i wasnt that worried :)

yeh they are surpisingly good, v nice idle temps @ 1.4 2800 (19-22C) :)

However the bios is rather poor, only allowing up to 300htt, 1.7vcore, and about 6 memory timings :cool:

Also i have to keep unplugging, then plugging in my razer copperhead after i enter the bios each time :mad:

Other than that they are well worth getting if you want as gooder overclock with mobility

[mrlobber]

Take that cpu out for benching :D It needs to see the true landscape, including some subzero temps ;)

[Dissolved]

thats an awesome frag box.

if you can get 2.8ghz 3d stable for gameing, that would rock.

I had a nf2 shuttle with a xp1700@2.6ghz, 9800xt, dual 200gb hdds.. was an awesome box.

thanks for the infos on oc features of the bios.
if I'm correct I ordered a shuttle with a similar board as yours ;)
will give it 1.45V and hope to get 2.7-2.8GHZ stable...not a clock where I'm normally at but it is a shuttle...your one is really outstanding, specially the ss rockz :toast:
it is not for me just building it for fun for a business partner -.-

unfortunatly i havnt got the $ or time to fund a good benching rig, and i personally dont warm to just getting high results without 24/7 stability and usage.

I forgot to screenshot my 3dmark05 results at 2.8 stock votls, 1:1 w 280 3-3-3-8 2.8vdimm; so here you are:

such a sick mouse, but it really is like a car, you have to be a good driver to get the most out of it.

Very nice result :D
I am still happy with my little Shuttle. I was going to watercool the Cpu in when I got it. But the Shuttle heatpipe turend out to be very good.

1.7v, air cooling?

1.7v, air cooling?

yes, only for a short period, i think idle temps were about 65C :eek:
