Man that SLI mod is cool as hell
Man that SLI mod is cool as hell
Thinking of swapping out my GA-EP45-UD3R with a GA-EP45C-UD3R...do you think I will need to re-install Win XP or since it's the same chipset and hardware (other than DDR3 RamI'll be switching to also)? My DDR3 system at work feels just so much smoother that I'm getting dissappointed with my home pc. I'm thinking it also maybemy Seagate HD that might also be the issue, I'm not sure. Any comments or suggestions welcome.
not necesary mate!Quote:

OH what the hell, why not. You only love once. I just ordered a GA-EP45C-UD3R and some G.Skill Ripjaws DDR3-1600 to pair with it. Should be an improvement over my current GA-EP45-UD3R and DDR2-1200. Work PC setup has me spoiled.
On a side note, I really hate Neweggs price fluctuations from day to day and week to week. Worse than oil sometimes!
i got my Q9650 today

im on water w/ AC blowing into the rad
so its cold.
i got it to prime with 1.40v in bios.
will post SS soon.heres a pic of the cooling
setup,its not the prettiest but very effective.
after the AC goes throught the rad the 4500rpm
tornado fan blows the cold air down into the case
where the two 4000rpm TT fans keep the rest cool.:cool:

How do you guys get your wives and girlfriends to tolerate your computing habits? What's your secret?

if prime fails 896k,doesnt that have to do with
the NB and ram?
depends mate can be you need a notch of vcore...for sure is that, what vid is yours ? Oc nub is 1,17 and needed same vcore as me to pass blend long time, it was 1,42+ set on bios mine is 1,1875 and needs 1,43+ set on bios, i think you need a bump and it will pass for hours :up:Quote:

Are you using cellshocks again? If so try lowering your mch ref. down 1 notch, back to stock. On my board they like the 0.760 setting over the 0.800.Quote:

Help please
i just noticed that my WCing loop goes
pump/res/cpu/rad.would it be better
to go pump/rad/cpu/res?i had no clue
as to what i was doing when i put it
together.i looked and looked at pics
as to how it should be and i think i
confused myself in the end.but wouldnt
it cool my cpu better comimg straight from
the rad first?
It should be pump->rad->cpu->res. Awesome clocks; I think the chip gods are smiling on you. You have all the golden chips in the Intel Section. :up:Quote:

and yes the last three cpu's seem to be
a gift from the cpu gods.before them its
was just average chip's one after another.
WOOT!! :D Well done buddy - I knew you would be part of the Q9650 miracle club :up:Quote:
