discussion Bang for the buck Overclocker

Thats a lot of dead skin cells you have there attached to that heatsink, huck...:shok:

What my picture didn't show was a moth carcass stuck to the inner wall of my old HS fan. Funny thing is I remember when he got sucked into my case, I was gaming and this pesky moth kept landing on my monitor so I swatted him aside and heard an immediate Slurp..Thoomph.. Haha straight in the side panel intake and I guess he did a curcuit inside my case to finially rest in peace as a HS fan fossil. :rofl:

I wouldn't do that if I was him...

It's a P45 board. NO SLI SUPPORT.:doh::doh::doh::doh::doh::doh:

I know guys I'm working on getting a SLi board but in the meantime I can use the 2nd 260 as a physX card. I primarily got both these cards for folding and truly one of them on thier own does me just peachy when it comes to gaming at 1680x1050. I was going to put the SLi bridge on them just for shits and giggles but I found that it walls off a bit of the airflow from my side panel fan so I'll just keep it off untill I change boards. Speaking of which that will be my next low cost upgrade, switching to a Quad core 9550 and a SLi board. I figure I can sell or trade my dual core and Asus P5Q-E for half the cost of the upgrade so that will keep this rig in the bang for the buck arena. BTW this new card overclocks even higher than my first one did and is folding like a monster. Combined PPD atm I'm getting 14,303ppd and that will compete with a GTX 295 production for $200 less. I need to ditch this EVGA precision tool as it locks both cards to specific clocks because SLi'ing cards need to be clocked exactly the same. I'm folding so such limiting factors aren't applicable in my case so I think I'll finially have to learn how to use RivaTuner like everyone else and stop taking the lazy route heh.
