CSS Junkie Posted April 11, 2005 Posted April 11, 2005 Nice specs Well as you can see in my siginture we have similar systems. So if you want some advice I can throw you a bone or two I will tell you a couple things right off. With you ram you will most likely have trouble getting that cpu to 2.8 I've had mine at 2.73 stable [but not when i play games with the graphics optimized, but your gpu may help you morethere than mine does] I had my fsb all the way upto 333 and running fine but it's just not stable all around. I've found that my current 290X9 = 2.61ghz is a nice comfort zone for my setup. I can tell you all kinds of different settings to try in bios for the optimized setup. I have several saved in my cmos reloaded [great lil tool :nod: ] I do plan on buying the new OCZ pc 5000 ddr 625 when it comes out, [made just for the dfi nf4 boards] and I know this will help me get to new OCing heights :cool: Get back with me and tell me exactly what you want to do with your system, and I'll see if I can help you out. I check this forum several times a day so I should respond quickly! :nod: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillll Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 ty system is for gaming of course and i had saw on hardocp or pcstats that ram could reach high voltage . and yes my gpu can handle more Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knob Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 Ooooo. Nice water cooling setup! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry_Games Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 excellent choice for watercooling! (i only use Danger Den exclusively myself) my Newcastle 3500+ (its a clawhammer core it seems) is rocking...but any cpu is a hit-or-miss...you never know what you gonna get (run Forrest run!!!)

gillll Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 you never know what you gonna get hehe you are probably right but u can always check the cpu itself and where i'm buying i'm sure to get the right one (hopefully venice will arrive) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kosmic Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 Danger Den blocks look good but......go with Swiftech for CPU cooling!! I ordered the DD TDX and email them back to swap it for the Swiftech MCW6002- 64 just in time. Swiftech blocks are ugly but perform better for the same price. For GPU cooling I will got with the DD SLI setup of course! Still waiting for a good 1/2" ID block for the nF4 chipset.

CSS Junkie Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 FSB 293 ratio X3 Transfer 16 16 FSB ratio X9 PCI 101 CPU VID startup 1.55 CPU VID control 1.55 Special 104 LDT 1.5 Chipset 1.8 Dram 2.9 had it at 3.0 and ran stable DRAM Freq. 100 CPC enabled gives you 1T 2.5-3-3-6 You can find more about the rest of the bios in other parts on this forum, If you don't have riad and sata then disable those to give you faster boot times. Make sure you have the latest bios update which is 3/10 and then put your ram in slots 2 and 4 to give you dual channel. If I left anything out and you need more info just post and I'll try to help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
