So basically right now I have a 80MM fan sitting on the back of my 7600GT to cool it off. My question is...should it blow air on the back of the card or should it blow the air away from the card?

Cool! I'm able to go through 30 mins of super PI at 2.8. Now I'm just praying that ASUS releases a new BIOS so I can pump the juice up on the CPU and RAM.
I just used Super PI for about 30 mins in Windows. Can't use those other DOS apps because I'm overclocking from Windows. Stupid ASUS won't allow anything higher than 1.95V for the ram in BIOS, but in their overclocking program you can go up to 2.5V...O_O
I know it wasn't the best. By "interesting" I meant that its weird that the BIOS says 4.4GHz. But I still think its a good OC for stock voltage, stock cooling, and low voltage on the ram. Oh yea...I am now posting this message from 2.8GHz...so its stable now :).
hehe...I hope not ;)...used clockgen
got the CPU at 2.805GHz - didnt last long enough for screenshot (sorry for blurry pic...got excited and couldnt hold camera still lol):

2.797 seemed stable: and only 39c...
I found a way to get the ram higher than 1.95 Volts. ASUS includes an overclocking program which allows you to give up to 2.5Volts!! and 1.5625 Volts on the CPU. But if I raise the FSB, the PC just freezes, im going to try clockgen to see if it works with the ram voltage up higher. Also setting...
lol the BIOS really sucks man...I have the vcore set to 1.575 and it only gives me 1.375 that you see in CPU-Z...ASUS really needs to get a new BIOS
but anyways 4.4GHz:

Windows won't boot; but...
Hmm..maybe I'm a little bit outdated on hardware prices...but I was sure that I could get around 700. I mean come on...the video card and hard drives together go for around 300 theirself.
Hey guys I'm planning on selling my PC soon...how much do you think I could get for it?

Hi, I have two Hitachi Deskstars in RAID 0. They are performing really bad. I'm getting around 58MB per sec in RAID on Sandra. I know it should be a lot higher than this, any suggestions?

I know arctic silver is the best, but right now I only have 3 different brands of thermal paste; and I was wondering which one is the best out of these 3:
GEIL Copper Thermal Paste
Vantec Thermal Paste
Arctic Cooling Silicone Paste
Also which is best for my CPU (AMD 64 3000+ Venice)...
I know that Newegg says that they do not deliver on Saturdays. But one of my friends says that he has gotten packages from Newegg on Saturdays before, so my question is for all the users of AT; Have you ever received a package from Newegg using FEDEX/UPS on a Saturday?
