Got the HTPC built on the tech bench for now, just got done installing windows, about to install the rest of the drivers and Bonic.

Chicken Patty · Jan 21, 2012, 05:43 AM

the S775 board I received is not posting so I'm still crunching with the 2600K only.

Chicken Patty · Jan 21, 2012, 05:00 PM

Well, even with the VTT and PLL changes, still got a BSOD, this time for 0x101. So I added vcore and it passed 20 passes of IBT at very high settings. Before I added the vcore it lasted about 20 seconds before I got the BSOD.

AlienIsGOD · Jan 21, 2012, 05:25 PM

OMG!!! you guys make me want to go get a 2500K, even though i haven't paid of rmy current setup yet :P

Seriously tho, im most likely going to drop an Ivy Bridge "K" series in this Z68 in the summer/fall. And if by chance my mobo isn't supported, i'll grab a 2500K since the prices will be cheap as IB wil be for sale too.

Mydog · Jan 21, 2012, 06:38 PM

Do you guys think I should push this one a little more?
Temps are low and the watercooling setup is overkill for just the CPU, 2x 360 rad + a 240 in a Lian Li Cube case. Case and all the WC stuff I got for "free" from a local webshop.

All I had to do was to document and photograf the build for them to use in their user manual, third setup I build for them.

Chicken Patty · Jan 21, 2012, 07:07 PM

Go for a bit more, even voltage is still good.

stinger608 · Jan 21, 2012, 07:52 PM

Sorry I have not been around for the last week or so. My frigging internet was pretty much down. Ended up being the cable from the house to the pole. When it would get real cold out it would work fine, however once the wind came up or it warmed up it would shut down. I was surprised that the cable company was able to come today and fix the issue. They were not suppose to be here until Monday or Tuesday.

None the less I am back.

brandonwh64 · Jan 21, 2012, 08:00 PM

Well the Biostar board from Alex arrived *YES!!!* Im installing windows XP for now since I only have 512MB of ram and I should have it crunching tonight *Fingers crossed*

4,8 looks stable so far, I'm letting it run a few hours before I try higher.

brandonwh64 · Jan 21, 2012, 11:34 PM

Got the htpc/cruncher setup for the time being. Click below for more info.

Saw it in the other thread, hope you get your new RAM soon dude.

brandonwh64 · Jan 22, 2012, 02:41 PM

Well Checked last night and I will be getting aroun 600PPD extra with this HTPC. Once my new board from ASUS arrives, I may start looking for a quad (or if I get a board with ACC, a 550,555 unlockable chip)

I think I finally fixed my BSOD issue. Been on and off because of it for the last few weeks. Hoping to see my #'s stabilize. So hopefully I'll be getting a few more PPD as well.

Yea this PC runs great, after a night of 100% crunching there was no errors, I also played two movies last night using XBMC and it worked fine.

You are planning on putting it in a case right?

I want to build something but I don't know what

HTPC sounds great but I also want to water cool my damn 2600K. I've been spending too much money/time on my car, I'm having silicone withdrawals!

AlienIsGOD · Jan 22, 2012, 10:10 PM

Yes, Thrill Kill is shipping my old HTPC case back to me monday I believe!

Paulieg · Jan 23, 2012, 01:23 PM

Damn. Nasty, nasty storms went through here early this morning. I think it took out at least my Asrock z68 board, and I don't know about the chip or anything else yet.

Sorry to hear that. Did you have the system plugged into a surge protector?

Yes, sure did. Surge protector is fine, so is the PSU, and the video card. Board is shot, and I don't know about the 2500K. We will see in a few days.

Great news dude.

stinger608 · Jan 23, 2012, 11:29 PM

Yea Surge protectors only work for high spikes in voltage. What a person can do is, if you can afford it, is get a quality UPS. There are many different brands available. Usually local stores will carry them.

And that is a real bummer Paul! Sorry to hear about that man. Hopefully the chip is okay.
