Well today i sold my lappy for enough coin to build myself most of a new rig. I ordered a new core2 e6400, Asus p5n32-e sli and 1gig of ddr2-800. I also picked up a evga 8800gts . Also had to pick up a new waterblock for the new socket since i am on 3500+ 939 at the moment.I'm hoping the new dangerden rbx waterblock will help me keep a handle on the temps from the overclock that i'm planning to put on it

heheh it would be, and hope you enjoy that C2D, post some # once you oc

Got the new rig together and my waterloop installed. I think i got a good chip as this e6400 is at 3.5ghz from the spec 2.1ghz and can boot to windows as far as 3.8ghz but lack the voltage to get it orthos stable. I have it running with orthos stressing it and 2 folding clients helping to punish it hard. Hopefully it's stable cause my board is tapped out on vcore at 1.6 and temps holding steady at 46c however the articsilver hasn't had time to cure yet so the temps will fall slighty. There's still alittle more in it but i'm out of voltage with this board. When i get home this afternoon should it pass orthos i will get some screen shots and validate with cpu-z and see about taking some pics of my new rig to upload for everyones viewing pleasure.

Ok as promised here's the resultsby the way the board i went with is asus p5n-e sli .




cpu-z validation


Well there we go for the day i will try to snap some pics with my pos camera this week end and maybe even the rest of my gaming and folding farm. This thing just kills my previous setup.

Drool, if only I could OC this lappy
