3dgameman you think a zalman 9700 can keep up at 3.6??

[3DGAMEMAN]

No, not really unless you have one amazing chip that require very little voltage. Water Cooling is the way to go if you want a near maximum overclock and low temperatures. I recently overclocked my Q6600 to 3.84GHz but I have Swiftech water cooling with two 120mm rads.

I dont have a problem understanding a single thing he says.

Many people dont have much time o their hands so if he goes fast and puts it on the screen than we can read and hear more info. If he slows down t the slowest person who watches his videos all the faster more knowledgeable market will leave to go see other reviews in half the time.

Rodney is renowned for his reviews and he's been doing it this way for years so he might slow down a lil because of your comment but not much.

I got the motherboard drivers of the website, and the audio got them from a different web cus the once in asus are still beta. also is a beta bios okay to install? will it work just like the original one? i have paid a lot for this board and now i am really disappointed of this simple issue, maybe a simply update may fix it. what is a DVMUSB by the way, anyone got any ideas? thanks in advance :)

If i put my dram control rate to 1, gaming is much more responsive if on 2 its real crappy and you can feel the latency

[Turdman21]

@zgr9 he has water cooling too so yeah.

[The2LGameR]

I overclock to 4GHz and stress temp is 55. ...

[jorn89]

I have an Core2Duo E6800 (2 years old i gues) overclocked from 1.86ghz to 2.53ghz . The asus overclocking software and bios settings are great, get asus for motherboard.

[TheLittleWorldofGaz]

should i upgrade my cpu q6600 to an i7?/

[zgr9]

wow i didnt think to set the cpu voltage to 1.5 that seemed kinda high, i'll have to try it
