my heat sink is a spire falcon rock, before i was overclocking it, temps where below 32C when idling but now they are about 42C..
what do you mean by the chipset mod? what would that do? nah, my setup isnt water cooled!! sadly, i might be able to get more out of it if it was!!
do you think another board might make a difference?
i was thinking of try the abit nf7-s and another xp1700.. what you think?
i thought the ram would go higher, but its weird, worked at 2356mhz earlier this after noon, but now wont work at all.. (205 x 11.5)
im not to worried about it, like you say its a hell of an overclock anyway.. im glad ive got it this far!! its just 18k sounds so much better than 17.5k!!!
thanks for the help!!
