Well not sure how Karma gets the Stats posted in the opening posts, but started this weeks Folder Chat...

not much to say today, just got up an hour or so ago...

other than I have to start tonight on backing up my brothers friends system, and gutting it, maybe install some of the parts.

question I do have, on the C2D E6400, I never looked into it, but wondering if it would bottleneck a 320MB 8800GTS some, I know it did when I moved up to the 512MB G92 model, but not sure on the G80?

if it would, what would be a good speed to OC it to from 2.13GHz... 2.2, 2.4...?

my bro's friend doesn't use the PC much for games, just a few oldies like BF2, will be playing some of the new BF games when they release & a few other FPS games, maybe some racing ones, but not much else.

I'll post stats in a bit. Away from the main PC atm.
As far as speed, my goal is at least 3Ghz with anything Intel has their name on.
Those chips are capable of that, and more depending on cooling and such. But more then likely (depending on the board) the ram will hold you up, or heat will.

3Ghz should be doable with less then 1.4 vcore to.

**2monsters** · April 20th, 2009, 03:34 PM

I doubt you will have a bottleneck with that cpu gpu combo.

**ShyguyXPC** · April 20th, 2009, 04:04 PM

ok cool.

yeah not looking for any speed records here, it'll be using 2GB (2x 1GB) DDR2-800MHz Kingston Value stuff, and stock Intel Cooler.

also the case is an older Antec 1080AMG, so its only got 80mm fans, the PSU is the 400W Silverstone, so has a good size fan on that, but 2 rear 80mm, 1 or 2 front intakes, a HDD 5.25" bay cooler, and a side 80mm fan (replacing the loud vantec with a Enermax Enlobal). G31 Motherboard also. and Windows 7 Beta 32bit, so not sure how it will react with the OC's like I had with the AMD rig this weekend.

but if the GPU shouldn't be Bottlenecked, then may just bump the speed a little to 2.2-ish, maybe 2.4 for a reasonable gaming CPU speed.

**2monsters** · April 20th, 2009, 04:14 PM

Like kk said try for 3ghz and there should be no problems. Hell at 3ghz it may even run crysis

Yea but i wouldnt woory about a bottleneck. Now if it was a P4 or a single core then there would be cause for concern. Whatever oc you can get, it will be that much better as long as temps are within reason.

Brutes are getting boring, back to WoW.
I need to pull my bad H/D out ang get working on the RMA, that and install SMP again.

You guys are lucky I haven't found a Team researching Psoriasis.
Welcome to the National Psoriasis Foundation Website Most people think its just a skin problem, I can tell you it is so much more. Psoriatic arthritis seems to be rearing its ugly head. Nothing major yet, but it is starting to affect my Knees and fingers, and just to keep things real interesting another wonderful part of an overactive immune system is having an irritable bowel. (Just think of going from zero urge to do number 2 to [scooby doo ]Rutro Raggy[/scooby doo] in 2 seconds.)

Sure there are some effective medicines if you don't mind the side effects. (the stuff for the IBS causes blurred vision, which is supposed to go away. for the most part it did but now I need reading glasses for fine print. (and i don't take it anymore.)

**nunyadam** · April 20th, 2009, 05:35 PM

7 hours later, you still "away from the main PC atm."

seriously if I knew how you posted the stats I could do it too.

well if it doesn't take long, if its going in & posting each persons seperately, forget it, leave it to the "professionals" LOL...

**nunyadam** · April 20th, 2009, 10:55 PM

ok, copy & pasted as said and it doesn't copy the links for each member...?

I'm just spoiled from posting stats over at XPC, Win2KUser before he left for a while (Life, & Personal Issues, loss of internet, etc), had it setup in Excel or something so we could just go to his server, click the file it produced every night and all the formatting and links were already there, THAT was a simple copy & paste job, start a thread, paste it, put in whatever ramblings or spam or as "winkie" referred to it, waffle, post and was done, almost no effort on posters end to post updated stats.

**nunyadam** · April 20th, 2009, 11:35 PM

See now you already screwed up and left in the total points.

**nunyadam** · April 20th, 2009, 11:38 PM

it was nice in the old days when you could just keep a file handy [size=4][color=blue] yada,yada,yada..... paste it in real quick and post it.

**KarmaKiller** · April 21st, 2009, 12:05 AM

Look at you guys go.

Sorry, ended up being out later then what I thought.

Busy day today though.

**ShyguyXPC** · April 21st, 2009, 12:18 AM

guess what I just picked up for $130?

Open Box...

Give up?

My New Video Card....

Sapphire Radeon HD 4870 1GB

(stock speeds, but can't beat the price)

Happy as can be, even contemplated picking up 2, since it'd be cheaper than the one 4870x2 they have for $295 Open Box, but figured go with one for now. got the 4830 for crossfire games for a little extra bump.

hell, Newegg has an Open Box Q6600 $148, Allendale E2200 for $44, 512MB version of the same card I bought for $119... etc, lot of open box bargains tonight.
