    here ya go





    The settings in my sig wont work with the one game ive been playing (L4D) so Im using the settings in the pics

    Also want to note having the bus speed at 200 or 264 makes no difference it is negligible and has the smallest variance so leaving the bus at 200 stress free and setting the nb and ht link to 200x12 will give you nice increases..........if you can get it to 2600mhz even better but mine will only do up to 2500 but I just leave it at 2400 for stability.

    As for cpu if oyu got a 125w 9950 Ive seen people here hitting 3.6-3.7ghz recently not sure what their 24/7 clocks are if you get a 140w like mine (they prolly dont make them anymore) expect up to 3.3-3.4 benchable 3.5-3.58 superpiable and a high screenie of around 3.6ghz + or - a few mhz.

    Hope this helps
