well.. things didnt work out the way they shoulda.. crap didnt wanna work in my case.. found i had a screw riding the back of the motherboard so it was randomly shorting.. luckily no damage

anyway, its just sitting on my desk... i did a light oc today.. cranked the fsb to 1605 or something like that (4.0X ghz) and ran super pi w/ my ballistix at ddr 800 4-4-4-15 1t



thats what i got.. almost my old super pi score which was at 4.18ghz.. and this is at .10+ less ghz!!!

i got room to improve.. and about another 200 more mhz to crank up the ram.. and also a nice clean install of xp (which i'm not using yet) and i'll hopefully hit 11's Page Ranking even low 12's will make me happy

i left my gtx at work.. so i couldnt get around to 3dmark06

my goal super pi-able is 4.2 ghz .. gona require a crapload of cpu voltage

vid is 2.875... not too bad... well pretty bad in my book.. lol


and on top of that.. its about 80-90 degree's F in my room all the time... so its not exactly overclocking season for me...
