Yeah well, i odn't plan on using the onboard for gaming lol, im gonna use a Pci-e card, but i have heard that this motherboard overclocks likea pro, even with onboard video, and some boards with IGP won't clock well, well this one proves wrong

I have zero experience with AM2 motherboards, sorry :(
since July 2006 it's been Intel S775 for me and the older S754 from AMD

I really want a review of the Arctic-Freezer Extreme heatsink. Considering its a big 120mm tower heatsink at 30€, it should be able to take the value crown for Quadcore Cooling

in time:) got a few CPU coolers to test first;)

one more 120 to test

http://www.frostytech.com/articlevie...articleID=2323


We can't buy it unless its tested to work

If 140 is just too small.

they missed the Scythe "Ninja Wire" that hooks up the the case to keep this cooler in place;) better pics in our article on Cebit :)

Didn't wee see such fan at Cebit 2008 already?

this one is not 250mm but 200mm fan, also different heatsink;)

May I request a review of Titan Fenrir.
Both CPC magazine and this website rate it as the top CPU Air cooler.

request was send out few weeks ago :)

Ahead of the game, ha? Eeeeeeeeeeexcelent! :excellent:

How about some Phenom II X2 550 action |D

Good question, I'll ask a local contact :-)

They certainly are fun to overclock. I was able to get up to 3.6Ghz 1.3V only to get problems anything past that. I'm actually benching right now (taking a break) and am 3.9Ghz with 1.45V. On air, with a low end ASrock 780g board.

I've seen people unlock those X2 -> X4 :D

I like to see a review of the quadro fx 5800 and the quadro cx.
and maby a quadro fx 5800 vs quadro cx whit Adobe® Creative Suite® 4

EVGA P55 mainboard escpecially OC potential.

Hey Boost; we haven't had much luck with our EU based eVGA contacts, we'll try our best to make it happen; I'm sure our world renowned OC champ, Massman, has no objection testing the P55 of eVGA :)

Only if I can get one for a longer period than the normal testing time. I want to test boards thoroughly :)

Micahel from Alternate told me he would do his best to get us an eVGA sample if needed John

that's good news:)
MM will be able to tell Michael is testing time frame better than /me

I have a special request for future fan reviews:

If you look at the test results of the Sharkoon and the Globalwin, we the difference between casefan performance and HS performance is showing. So essentially both setups are required for achieving a conclusive result which is the best HS fan and which is the best casefan.

I would like to see the i5 760 under LN2! :)

32nm FTW

The CPU is still 45nm:

Something I would like to see here is a : best buy guide

for like:

- internet PC
- game PC
- HTPC
- OC PC
- laptop
- netbook

... What do you think?

to make a guide based on facts rather than opinion we'd have to compare tons of hardware and even then we're still making choices you might not make ;)

Maybe we can do a half/yearly user survey ?

Cheap water blocks
 

There are a bunch of different cheap chinese waterblocks starting to show up. There isnt much out there, but it would be OssuM to see a review of a few.

examples:

ebay: 190978906295

ebay: 171068245704

ebay: 310666586306

ebay: 390678703676

and maybe not the downright cheapest but still cheap Aliexpress DOT COM has a whole line up of chinese made watercooling products for really low prices.

Interesting alternative or cheap useless and dangerous? Review worthy? Yes please!:woot:

They don't ship to Belgium, so pretty hard to get hold of a sample :)

But they do ship to Germany. And i (well DHL) ship anywhere ^_^.
Interested?
