It's my turn to update now.
« on: August 10, 2006, 11:52:16 am »
well I see everyone upgrading their computers and I cant help myself I'm doing it to.  It looks like im geting a fx-57 chip that I will overlock to above a fx-60 for those of you who dont know the fx-60 is about the best gaming processor out there.  The fx's aren't dual core but then again the dual core's are mainly for multi tasking not for gaming.  In reality the fx will smoke the amd dual core x2's in games.  I also ordered 2gb of ocz heat spreader memory.  The video card wil be next on the list but that will be a couple of weeks.  I may go ahead and get the 7950 big boy but we'll have to wait and see.

Just out of curiousity, what kind of CPU fan/heatsink are you setting on top of that bad boy?  Also, are you using Arctic Silver 5?  How long do you let the thermal goo sit?

im gonna use the stock fan and heatsink that comes with it... it will cool it sufficiently enough to get me up to 3 ghz instead of the stock 2.8.  and yeah artic silver unless there is a compound already stuck on the heatsink but the go is ready immediately after you stick it on.
