    i5 2500K + Zalman 9700 NT

    Being a big fan of the Zalman flower I wanted to get one for the i5 but given my Coolermaster Black Widow case I was a little restricted in height. The 9700 size is a perfect fit but only comes with the 775 bracket by default. I sourced a Zalman 1155 bracket for £3 (amazing how little...

    i5 2500K mild overclock, low volts

    Have done some tests at default for everything but with a 40x CPU ratio. Mine defaults to about 1.26v with slightly higher temperatures. Using 1.12v worked fine for my CPU and with stock cooler gave 67c tops for prime run of about 2 hours. I did also get the system to run at default with 45x...

    i5 2500K mild overclock, low volts

    Thought i'd replace my 24/7 machine with some newer kit but wanted to keep the power and temps as low as possible whilst having the ability to number crunch when needed. Currently only using the stock cooler but will replace this shortly - Probably with a Zalman Flower as thats what I've had in...

    E5300 Speedstep has gone weird.

    I have a Dell which has a an E5300 installed. Until recently all was fine and the system used the 13x200 when loaded and 6x200 when idle. I've not looked at this for a couple of months but currently CPUz 1.54 is now saying 12.5x200 at idle. Being a Dell (Vostro200) the BIOS does not contain...

    Replace 2x500GB Samsung's with 1.5TG Seagate

    I recently move the contents of my 2x 500Gb Samsung HDD onto a single Seagate 1.5TB drive. I'm a little disappointed to find that the Seagate is more noisy. Now this is very subjective as the noise is little more than ticking as the drive seeks, but neither of the older Samsung's where audiable...
