FIT, I got you RAM installed. Finally being able to game is great lol. No more sluggish gaming due to lack of RAM.

Now I just cant get the dam sticks to run over what my old sticks were. 2:8 divider 191*21.

I try to drop the multi and raise the FSB and no stability. any tips?

Yo CP, I love those pics of your rig EVERY time I see them. I am thinking of making that my desktop sometime

Here's what I have sitting around until I put my rig back up.

I've got my Biostar board set up. I'm currently doing an OCCT run right now at 4.0ghz. So far, so good. I'll post a pic tonight, though you'll need to excuse the mess. I won't have time for cable management until this weekend.

FIT got the PSU installed just now bro, you were right, that thing is the BOSS, 2nd card should arrive tomorrow, put it to the test, however not more of a test than you did :laugh:

the only thing i dont like about pc power is customer support. i sent my 510 in for RMA over a month ago and i havent heard a damn thing about it. emailed them 20 times now.

the psu's work great though.

I was looking at their spec sheet that they send with the PSU :eek:

Fitseries3 · Feb 27, 2009

You got a very clean build there. Unlike my cursed p180b, i removed all the cable hiding spots when i surgically hit it with an axe.

PaulieG · Feb 27, 2009

OK, here's the raw setup. I'll be doing cable management and re-routing the loop this weekend.

I didnt always had the right tools for the job and sometime used my old thrusty 11A Hitachi

Just a little bit overkill.

Fitseries3 · Feb 27, 2009

its about damn time....

The Haunted · Feb 27, 2009

Does it perform as good as the original?

Thrackan · Feb 27, 2009

I know I'm so close to getting this stable!

Went from a BSOD @ 1 second of stress to 1.5 hours of stress.
I'm almost certain there is some sort of margin or sweet spot involved here, I've had stress runs doing worse with 1.42 QPI volts than they did at 1.40, with the rest of the settings identical... I've also had runs where adding CPU voltage gave it a worse result.

I'm writing up a table, timed all of the results I've had before I got a BSOD on the stress runs.
...but then again, right now I just started work.
Oh and I'll get pics, don't worry.
