    Core 2 Duo E8500 Q806A @ 4.4GHz @ 1.6V
    2GB DDR3 @ DDR3-1852 8-7-6-21
    GeForce GTX 280

    CPU Voltage ( Vcore ) = 1.6V
    FSB Termination Voltage ( Vtt ) = 2.0V
    PLL Voltage ( Vpll ) = 2.8V

    Same ... F@H and gaming 24/7.

    This one should die easily as some of you say right ?
    guess NOT

    These 2 have been running for 1 1/2 days already.
    DAY 16
    Hard to keep track but I count 5 systems UP running ...
    +2 more?

    The electricity company looves you,
    the environmentalists hate you,
    we all salute you.

    Quick question, don't know if it's a dumb one, but do you cold boot the test machines at all?
    or flat 24/7 always on, no reboots?
