I have a Phenom II 955 BE OCd to 3.8 w/ a 1.45vcore... I would go higher but I am using a 64 bit OS.... current load temps are 41c max w/ prime95 - Maybe I will install a 32bit OS and push it once I get my new CPU and mobo

LOL are you kidding skulltrail costs lots of money. If you have the cash to buy skulltrail anything, you probably have enough for phase change cooling. Too bad skulltrail has such poor memory performance though, never understood why Intel decided ...

Windows 7

I have been running windows 7 for about a week on my pc, and I think it is great, it is definatly not quite ready for release yet as I have run into bugs but I do say it is very close.

Vista vs. 7

Vista looks better - I think
7 runs insanely faster, I think it runs faster than xp
love the eyecandy in 7, and somehow, does not make the os boot slowely.

Windows 7

I have been running Windows 7 since last night and loving it so far.
Almost everything about Windows 7 is great, for example, its speed is just breathtaking even tho it has loads of eyecandy but to be honest, i wish it had the look of Windows Vista, because i think i dont realy like the taskbar on Windows 7, and how some of the menues are and how they are arranges, but i think i will grow to these little things.

Apart from what i dont like which is 2 things, everything else so far is perfect

At 5:19am on April 19, 2009, Travis Piper said…: I see your cooler has 6 heat pipes. Mabe you could upgrade to coolermaster sych ninja cpu cooler? We have it on our server and it is overclocked as well. The cooller has 8 heatpipes and can hold 4 120mm fans with 1 on each side but it can just have one. It would be good as a stock cooler because there would be no fan needed. The big cooler with a hole down the middle is it.
