    noobsystems.Org, should this forum called

    Sorry, but how people (I'm not directed personally to you, Zucker) would like to OC a Q6600 on this board when they even don't understand the basics, how to flash a bios, how to downgrade it (despite all what is said, this AFUDOS and ASUSUPdate older version are now some 4 years old tricks), components limits...

    Best advice to all people discovering the OC: it is not something you're granted and can RMA you components if you can't get it, it is just something needing time (yes, not only 12h...), readings (not only xtremesystems forums plenty of wrong affirmations), some history (yep, silicone is silicone since the 80th) and to be meticulous...

    Better I should have some holidays
    Well d00d, I for one appreciate all your help here so a "flame" doesn't bother me even if some of it is directed my way, but honestly I do think of this thread of a sorta help line. Just this thread, not thread 2 started by kup. Hell I am always installing new sh*t, encoding video (done testing and pushing limits so I am encoding now and some gaming), so researching stuff like 8 phase voltage regulators I have not gotten to yet, because of limited time. I know electronics and can understand schematics and principles, I just can't do analog design using all the formula's, high speed digital timing is a PITA too. Anyway, I have still yet to research x phase VR's which is what I will have to do since noone answered the questions at hand. I will post when I find out. Like you I always check in here and the water cooling section also. Thinking about phase change too maybe... Keep in good spirits m8!

    I got some action going here: You can call it quad x quad x quad, ie. quadcore x 4x1GB RAM x 32mb pi x4.
