First all, thanks for this thead, a ton of info here - anything and everything you need to know about the Q9450 is in here. So cheers! :up:
I was hoping that someone could take a look at my settings and suggest any possible improvements.
I’m currently running at 3.4 Ghz stable (linpack 10x, and Prime95 12hrs+)
