Well, the last of my main bits just arrived today, save for my memory, and I'm going to start assembling things. The only thing I am a bit concerned about that I will be totally lost with all the settings listed in my Bad Axe 2 BIOS. I'm done a lot of overclocking in the days of old (Celly 266 anyone?? :) ) , but there are a lot of new commands in the new BIOS that I simply don't recognize. Just wondering if there is some sort of guide posted that gives a quick lowdown of the common BIOS settings found on most Core 2 motherboards, and a quick reference guide as to how to best go about OC'ing your Core 2 processor.
Here are the final bits I got my build:
Tuniq Tower 120
Intel Bad Axe 2
Intel QX6700
4 GB of Corsair Dominator 8500
Dominator Fan
150 GB Raptor
2 x 320GB Seagate Barricuda to be set up in Raid 1
EVGA 8800GTX
Silverstone Zeus 750
WinXP 64
Once again, thanks for your guys help when picking out the components for my build - you were very helpful! Now I just gotta get everything thrown together and see how far I am able to push things. I am hoping that I can hit at least 3.4 - 3.5 stable on the system.
