bah. that's yesterdays news.
jk man.. sounds sweet! 3.5?! what's your normal clock speed? i may go vomit on my weary 1.8. i tried to OC it to 2.5 the other day... went fine with xp, but vista wasnt having ANY OC.

interesting... I always knew AMD to run a fair bit cooler than Pentium, what kind of cooling do you have on it?

I have this fan on it. very nice. http://www.thermaltake.com/product/cooler/retail/cl-p0257/cl-p0257.asp I think i do need to get some better thermal compound though. and yes the amd do run cool except for the winsdor core which runs on a 125 watt TDP. SO FOR IT IT RUNS A LITTLE HOT.
Aww, I came in expecting to hear about a new custom tank build.
lol me too ah well.
(gah I can't let it go lol I mean this in the nicest possible way bullseye but that avatar really gets my goat...there I said it I can move on :D))

WHAT!! Where is the liquid cooling system with remote mounted radiator and cooling fan? Overclock the heck outta that AMD and liquid cool it!!
I have built every computer I have ever owned, except for my laptops, and have always run AMD's..
I think it might be time to build another!!

1 you can't beat $160 for dual core running at 3.2. And AMD has always performed better for me in gaming. but i may look into the E 8400's for my next build though if i have the money. as you knoww intel is not cheap.
