I believe the VID on my Q6600 is 1.225, it will run 9x334 at 1.168 volts.

Man I wish I could help you a bit,

I'm running at 9x400mhz on my G0 Q6600 and only using 1.312v.
Board and ram is a Gigabyte p45 UD3R with 2x2gb of gskill 5-5-5-15 ddr2-800 and 2x2gb kingston...

That is awesome.

What a nice looking board with those dominators. :up:

I always enjoy your reviews for the relatively through and quick read along with the clear upclose pictures.

Thanks and keep it up!

Good job, that looks nice.

I think it would be cool if Galaxy had a white edition of the gtx580!...

Good choice with the AX-1200 too, that's a very nice build. :D

After building my brother an i5 rig recently I can't wait to upgrade from this Q6600 and play with some newer stuff for myself!

I'm roughly in the same boat as you.

I've done the same as you have over the years and added a SSD and 5850 to give my system a kick in the ass.
What I have decided to do is wait until the end of...

A local PC chain shop here has one that has been on the shelf for years, I took it up to the counter once to check the price on it and it's not even in their system anymore.

I am tempted to go...

Nice, I liked when you dragged that forum window across the screens because it really shows the difference in the resolutions.
(I also recognize that name from [H] :P)

So. how is this project coming along now?

Hey Transit that looks cool, good job.

What kind of wood did you use for that? Birch?
Are you planning on doing any more modifications to it? Like adding some fan mounts or brackets to hold other...

So, do you need a hand building all of that?
I read your original thread and I am interested to see how this all turns out!
That desk looks like it's going to be holding a lot of stuff. :D

I absolutely love my UD3R, I still need to drag it and my set of Crucial Ballistix Tracers DDR2-1066 out to the subzero garage and see how much higher I can get with my Q6600.

You might have to get creative. (I know I know, it's an Ultra 120)

With that system my first upgrade would be 4gb of ram, I'd replace the video card too but there is no real point if you don't game.
More storage is always nice too, and nothing is wrong with wanting...

Yeah, I wouldn't worry about load temps like that unless the only games you play are IBT and Prime 95. :D

I still think they still are a little high for a watercooled setup but that rad of yours...

Replaced my original 8800gt cooler withthe GFXchilla a few weeks back, they have fixed the problem with the two low profile heatsinks fitting near the heatpipes and they also ship with sekisui...

Mediamonkey works for me in Windows 7 x64 if you want to give that a try?

Well I know a few people that have PCs in their unheated garage all winter, so maybe it's a similar situation?

Good choices on those parts, that Antec PSU was a bundle deal with the case correct? Q6600 is still a bad ass CPU for the price, and I really want to pick up one(or two :D ) of those VelociRaptors...

Almost subzero temps here in Ontario, Canada
1.5°C is the lowest temperature my indoor/outdoor thermometer has registered so far. :D
It will soon be time to drag the box out into the garage and see...

I am looking at cheaper TN panels, I don't need MVA, PVA or IPS although I would love one eventually. I just need to get off this dim and dark CRT soon.
I game, watch videos, occasionally do some...

Acer X243Wbd for $299, should I jump on this?

Or maybe the X223wbdfor $188.99?...

If there was I'd actually start running a DC program again.
