mauller07Sounds nice, but whos gonna say it first.. i dare ya ....but can it play............................................crysis?

I have just overclocked my Q6600 (B3) on my Asus p5q deluxe to 3ghz at 1.3 volts. During stress test with Prime 95, i noticed something odd, I had three programs open for determining the temperatures (everest ultimate, speedfan, and real temp). Speedfan and real temp showed the temps at around...

anyone?

i have a core i7 920 clocked at 3.8 using a Prolimatech Megahalem with a Noctua 120mm fan at full speed it is dead silent. the megahalem is an amazing cooler u should look at that

rig: asus p6t deluxe v2 OCZ ddr3 1600mhz 6gb ram core i7 920 @ 3.8 Sapphire 1gb HD4870 w/ t-rad 2 cooler Corsair 750tx psu HAF 932 case I built this computer and it ran fine for about 2 weeks then all of the sudden it wouldn't not boot at all. it tuns on for a second then beeps an error code...

there arent many reveiws for it but these are the few that i know of: http://www.legionhardware.com/document.php?id=808 http://www.hardocp.com/article.html?art=MTYxNCwxLCxoZW50aGlzdWFzdA==

are you talking about the fan that goes over the copper heatsinks around the cpu or the small 40mm one on top of the northbridge heatsink? it has the one that goes around teh cpu

that one looks great, real quiet the only thing im concerned about was its reliability. There are reviews on sites, where the lifetime of that fan is in question. thats what im worried about. I saw the Scythe Mini Kaze, it looks better but im really not sure.

im not sure if the scythe will perform better but from experience i can tell you the noctua cooler will be dead silent. I use their 120mm fans in my case and at full speed you cant hear them.

This question is pretty simple... I am planning on overclocking a core i7 to about 3.8ish ghz on a Asus P6t Deluxe V2. I heard that the northbridge heatsink doesn't cool passively very well. So I want to get a 40mm fan to keep it cool. here is where it gets tricky. I need it to be quiet. (40mm...

its the Noctua core i7 kit i came with 2 of the P fans. I haven't purchased yet, i still making sure it will be ok for overclocking. I just found out that Megahalems are available in the US now so im actually looking at those at the moment. If they work well im probably going to get that over...

have you heard of the prolimatech megahalems, they look amazingly good plus they just came available in the US. They look better than a TRUE. I was thinking maybe get that and just put a Noctua 120mm fan on it (just 1). wats your view on that???

haha yea i didnt plan on lowering hte speed (they are dam quite) but that is great to know about the overclock. Thanks alot

The vga card is a HD 4870 but im changing the cooler (was a double slot) to a Thermalright T-Rad2 with 2 92mm Noctua fans so it is going to blow right into the case. BUT i am using the Cooler Master HAF 932 case. it should have plenty of airflow to get the heat out ( at least i hope)
