Holy Jumping! Look at this.

Yeah LEN, exact same set up here...

Hmm, does that mean I can O/C my XP3000? (Without frying my machine that is.)

[LeftEyeNine]

Highyly probable, Beirut. Do you have non-standard cases or fans with your system? As I stated above, it gets even hotter in Izmir in summer, so that an O/C'ed system in winter would fry when it hits the spring times. Therefore I purchased this Chinese import that satisfies my system's cooling need at sufficent rates:



Once you have strong cooling devices, O/C 'ing is a matter of FSB adjustment through your BIOS.

A few case fans and you shouldnt have a problem. Make sure you have good airflow by careful placement of components and by using cable ties on your cables and wires. Just to make sure though, I have a Zalman CNPS7000A-Cu cooler as well. Its really great for OCing as its variable. You should be able to get at least an extra 200 mHz. Probably more.

Holy cow... 4GHZ.... :shock:

Then there's this 5.25 ghz project: http://www.tomshardware.com/2003/12/...ct/page13.html
and this 6 ghz one: http://forevergeek.com/geek_articles...een_broken.php

Completely impractical, but oh what fun!

My energy bill would surpass the national debt if I had the 6GHZ one...
