dr_bowtie Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 nice review.... I am really hoping one of the companies such as Asus are going to offer a P67 mATX board. I really want to upgrade over my current set up of the Asus P5E-VM/ Q9450 but I want the options of a P67 in the smaller formfactor.... Here is to hoping Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
damian Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 pretty cool, the overclock isn't giving me that tingling feeling though It's like when the P4's were mad overclockable too. Anyways, that's just on that aspect, result wise...not bad intel, not bad! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexonfyre Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 Great procs! Not enough to make me regret buying an i7-950 last month, but really great either way. I, for one, am impressed by intel's new IGP. From a system builder standpoint, you can now offer a budget gaming rig that can play most modern games on mid-high without a discrete card! Spend a bit of money on a Hyper212+ and overclock the chip for your customer and you have a hot seller on your hands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overclocking VOIDS all warranties...why would you build and sell a PC with a voided warranty? unless you take on the warranty yourself?

Water_Hazard Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 Impressive. Can't wait to see what's in store for socket 2011. Anyone want to buy an 860 and UD6 Great review as always Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overclocking VOIDS all warranties...why would you build and sell a PC with a voided warranty? unless you take on the warranty yourself? That would be the idea, also it only voids the warranties of the parts that are overclocked and that the companies KNOW that you did. Regardless, I would never sell a PC to someone else that I wouldn't feel comfortable using myself, and if I didn't feel like I could RMA parts if need be.

ClayMeow Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 IMO, you shouldn't sell anyone an OC'd PC. Let them do that themselves if they want and bear the risk. You have no idea what environment they will be introducing it to. It could be 10 degrees warmer in their house and cause it to overheat whereas you thought it was completely fine. Not worth it.

SpeedCrazy Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 Eh... Overclocking VOIDS all warranties...why would you build and sell a PC with a voided warranty? unless you take on the warranty yourself? On the CPU. Most but not all GPU companies allow overclocking and i assume mobo companies do. (otherwise why all the features aimed at oc'ers) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
damian Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 Sooooo, you'd rather it be a smaller overclock? hell no, for some reason im just not as excited as i should be by seeing this high overclock. it's just a weird gut feeling, my impression on the overall results is the same as others, totally awesome!

N.E.A Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 i think i will skip the 1156 build and go for 1155..just to make sure, are all of the 1156 coolers compatible with 1155 socket? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
