I tried to flash my OEM board with the retail Intel bios and i had no luck i tried all the different ways that i found. I think it is missing the jumper to force flash (needed when flashing to retail bios) it has the solder points but no pins :ohwell:

Why don't you make it have some pins? :D
 
not worth the work to only get a few more mhz.

Then why you complaining sissy :slap: :p Just kidding Tim :toast:

It's not that bad of a PSU, it's been crunching for about 7 months non stop already, powered my QX and 2900 for some 3dmark runs and all. It's been golden to me, all the rails are in check. I can't complain :laugh:

Its kinda surprising for that PSU as i haven't read hardly anything good about them

I've updated my PPD estimator so it now works with Core i7, for Athlon II still use the corresponding Phenom II (I'll update for Athlon II over the weekend)

I just made that thread a sticky. Should have done it before. :)
 
this is giving me severe headache, 920 or 860, im not gonna sli/xfire but i want more than 4gig of mem w/o using additional slot :banghead:
 
take 920, then in a few years you put a 6core in the board instead, and 6gb used memory are cheapo like 120$+
 
+1 to Don's suggestion!:D
 
Corsair ddr3 gt 6g is just out my budget not the 4g one tho :banghead:
 
you can find just as good memory for cheaps compared til corsairs,

g-skill tridents are just as good imo

whats your budget ? and du you need more than the cpu mb and memory?
 
geez dude, why so expensive motherboard if you aint gonna do CF or SLI on it:S
 
its a major upgrade :laugh: i only do this every two years and i got xtra cash from FS thread so why not :p

Edit: Vv Mega, again its not set in stone
 
arh okay i can see that:D

then go for the UD6, and spend the money on a good cooler? or will you use the Mega?
 
Well if u can recommend a build from new egg thats good for couple years w/o spending alot money, im all for it

Cpu: i got it, i7860 or i7920
Mobo: need usb 3 and sata 6
Ram: need to be stable at high OC

:D

Edit: budget $400+, heck if i can get my last combo to sell, budget can go $500+, bah might just buy 5970
