w00t a billion!!
BTW: I sense a quad in mah future... tomorrow? I have the money but am not 100% decided yet, I need some encouragement from you guys...
...so that I have someone to blame :D
It will go to my main rig, e6600 will go to the shelf until I get a second PSU and ram set (christmas perhaps).
Big Congrats to everyone on reaching 1 Billion Points - an awesome achievement in such a short time by a small but dedicated bunch of crunchers!! :clap: :clap:
There is NO other team that could have come so far in such a short time :up:
Hmm, encouragement huh..:idea:Quote:

Lot's of your work is not in your name but done by your machines..;)
I thought I'm safe being on the other side of ocean... you'd pay a q6600's worth for 24h call :DQuote:

Kayin - I'm sorry, but could you spell out what it is you mean. I'm probably just thick but I don't get it. It looks like you're running stock settings - is that it?
Yes but with a FEW extra members then us :up:Quote:

BTW, there are other members of the forum that "helped" with that. I'll run more than stock when I figure out Intel settings. Been AMD so long that I dunno what to do sometimes...
yeah I went over to try and help a friend OC his E6600 further and as soon as I entered the CPU settings I was like "wth is all this..." :confused: :yawn:Quote:

Depending on HS quality and your memory, that chip will do 3600 all day..Quote:

List the specs of what you have for parts there and we're off to the races!
Sierra_bound gets some huge numbers from a dual core machine he has.
Oh really. Well as a member of this team of course I agree on the :shakes:Quote:

Now pump in the volts and turn up the fsb and make that baby squeal! Should be good for at least 3400 maybe 36 or 38:up:Quote:

That should pull 3000 easy..I'll let one of the geniuses here coach you on settings..Out of my league..:DQuote:

Kayin,
Don't feel to bad. I've never really liked this Bad Axe 2 I have. I could never get it to clock as well as my asus boards.
Wes, my only problem is I keep looking for HTT settings...
I may mess with it later today, but I have a three-day block in front of me and those are always killers...
But, this thing does rendering and gaming as well, I want speed but stability. That's why I gave my kids the 680i board and kept this-Intel board, Intel chipset. Possibly less Xtreme, but then again, I'm not too worried. I have PLANS for this thing...
Hey, I've got a Celeron M lying around gathering dust, what have you guys been using as boards for them?
Woooo shiny :D

at stock now, searching for max stable OC.
EDIT: 3420 MHz orthos stable... cooling is limiting me.

If you don't have it here is a good thread...
