I care, I have a secondary computer with an E8400 and it was passed on to me from a friend who upgraded. Since I'm not the original owner, I'm not super familiar with it or how to overclock it, plus I have an HTPC video card in it instead of a powerhouse GPU.
Anyway, I'm wondering if you could share your overclocking strategy, and whether you have a kill-a-watt meter and could check what the difference in power consumption between pre-overclocking and post-overclocking?
I like to overclock and I think it would be fun to overclock my E8400 system, but since I'm unfamiliar with it I've not been contributing to this thread, just watching it with interest only because I'm kind of ignorant.
It was nice to see your results, good work! It inspires people like me to dig in and try it, and also helps me understand that I could get some good performance out of it and may be worth putting a more powerful GPU in that sucker and overclock the crap out it...
