LOL LOL LOL antec is teh retarded. my case front door has two magnets on them, one is strangely placed so that when closed the magnet is facing the power button, the other one is placed in a "logical" place with no opposing magnet to do anything with.. then theres a screw sticking out on a plastic sticking-out-thing.
the ONLY magnet thats working is one i cant see inside the case that pulls on that screw. and thats at the very top of the door. the rest pull against nothing. the magnets are strong though..

i did up it a notch, like by 0.125V, still crashed....i shouldnt need a higher voltage because the clock speed DID go down by 8MHz. dunno what voltage i should use for the RAM.. it was 2.8V previously... no one ever mentioned that gigaram likes low voltages like i saw for other RAM so dunno

no ill run 250x9, this makes RAM run at 237, cuz it follows CPU o.O but its 100% stable now. full load 250x10 Prime will crash eventually due to the heat

ill see to it that i get the 9500LED

250x9.5??? You can have half multi's....


I hope the heat sink on the opty 165 will allow atleast a 2.7ghz OC. Alot of people claim to get that much with no heat issues.

yeah.. there were always half multipliers... except in the AXP age half multis were known to be detrimental to performance and was not recommended.. dunno about for A64 but performance seems about right for 2375MHz

if you want to know how the heatpiped stock heatsink does just look up how the CPU does with the XP-90
