*** MSI P6N SLI Platinum OVERCLOCK 650i ***

well i loved my p6n, served me well, not every board could take a 1.86 stock chip to 3.2ghz stable :D. but i gotta say with this 750i i got the new e8500 to 4.0 before i even loaded windows lol. once i had windows up and running i was able to tweak to 4.4 but it took 1.45v vcore to do that and...

*** MSI P6N SLI Platinum OVERCLOCK 650i ***

got a fan for it, off of a evga 680i, not a perfect fit but damn close.. ran at 1.5nb for 3 days. then the system went down. board was unresponsive, power would spin the fans in the case and spin up the HD, but no usb, no lan lights, no leds on board.. clear cmos button did nothing. pulled plug...

*** MSI P6N SLI Platinum OVERCLOCK 650i ***

hehe, i do, but i havnt gone that far. i have an antec ninehundred case and pretty nice cabling considering 3 HDs and two optical. Id rather not have some ridiculously rigged fan sitting there as an eye sore. I already pulled the cooler off of my 8800 gts OC and strapped a 120 onto it and that...

*** MSI P6N SLI Platinum OVERCLOCK 650i ***

yeah, i love my cooler, i had no prob getting 3.25 on the e4300 which was pretty amazing at the time. i was one of the first 30 people to 3dmark a 1.8ghz chip at 3.25 (i think my entry was for 3.26 actually) and pple were amazed i did it on air too. But that was with the Big Typhoon cooler. I...

*** MSI P6N SLI Platinum OVERCLOCK 650i ***

assimilator, i was using the latest coretemp, as i found on other forums with some of the new chips it is accurate and with others it is not. I got lucky as my temps matched the general public that listed it was accurate. Apparently there is a tweak somewhere that if yours is inaccurate that...

*** MSI P6N SLI Platinum OVERCLOCK 650i ***

So i re-vamped my system and so far, while this is totally an improvement im not as happy as i could be.. im running an e8500, but i cant seem to break 1500 in the bios, stock is 1333=3.16ghz. Currently im at 1500=3.56. This is a crap OC, i had my 1.8 e4300 @ 3.25 after some tweaks as per...

BFG 8800 GTS OC 320MB Upgrade

i love my 8800gts oc 320mb honestly.. im on an lcd with 1680x1050 and i can play all my new games maxed out. i dont really see the point in an upgrade for my res, course if i had a 24" monitor or higher then i guess it would be different. I switched to my 8800 from a 7950Gx2 and was rather...

The Unofficial ASUS P5N-E SLI 650i Board Thread

So to clarify, without reading the last 200+ pages heh, you are saying that quads work FINE @ 3.0 and lower, but have issues Above. Is that correct? If it is, that really sucks, i have my e4300 up from 1.8 to 3.25 rock solid for months, that tells me i should be able to get an awesome OC...
