Re: TBCS - Super Pi
If I wanted to, I could make mine go faster as well, but I'm worried about the heat output.
The Core 2 Duos are the leaders currently, followed by the X2s. I'm fairly sure AMD will make a beautiful come back. And the new processors, if they're AM2+, they're backwards compatible with AM2. As for going quad core, make sure you have a use for it ;).
I had a very good reason to go for quad core...... Supreme Commander and UT3!

Re: TBCS - Super Pi
Errmm... :) I think I do :) First, it will be used to generate more heat ;) then, I like the speed it gives in final rendering ;) Well, the second mostly.
Even now, I'm looking for a professional video board and simultaneously doing a major redesign on my antec case.. in 3ds :) So, I need power, cause right now I'm using the old XP system cause it has more graphics horse power. Well, at least the front half is redesigned.. In order to get better, quieter cooling and a place for an 8800 series card.. and more storage.. and more fans.. :)

Re: TBCS - Super Pi
I think you only need 2 case fans, but that's just me xD
What do you mean by "I'm using the old XP system cause it has more graphics horse power"?

Re: TBCS - Super Pi
Well, I have an older agp 6800 that I bought for the socket A before I ended up upgrading/assembling a new PC, with the x2... I had do some corner cutting, so I bought a mobo with integrated graphics.. Now, I have an XP 2600+ with a 6800 and an overclocked X2 with integrated graphics.. The problem: whenever a scene I make has too many poligons, the integrated 6150 gpu goes to "sleep" on the job... So, all my modeling is done on the 6800, which usually requires a hefty hi-poly object to cripple it... 12 pipe lines vs 2 pipelines, dedicated VRAM, more speed, more bits crunched. Therefore, I suck :(

Re: TBCS - Super Pi
Updating now.
Exley any reason why CPUz is showing your E6600 as underclocked to 1.8?
@L2M - Fine job dude. sweet overclock too. Post in the overclocking thread too, gain a top spot there too ;)

If you want to go into the OVERCLOCKING thing I can break out the Ln2 :banana:
