New I7 920

[firefox11]

I just upgraded from an e6600 (conroe) to an I7 920 (nahalem) on the cheap. I only purchased the processor, an asus P6T deluxe V2, and gskill 6gb 3chan memory (F3-12800CL9T-6GBNQ). This is a box proc and I'm using the stock HSF. I kept my old pcp&c 600 p/s, HD2900 video card, etc. Not knowing much about overclocking anything that doesn't have a FSB (it seems to me they just renamed the fsb to bclk, lol) anyway, I'd like some comments on your experiences, what you think of my first go at an I7....et al.

 

Thanks,

 

(-: FireFox :-)

Looks decent to me, with exception of CPU voltage, it is a tad too low, try running P95 test and see if it is stable.
