Any quick comments would be really appreciated, i wasnt sure on the motherboard so will it be ok?

. I plan to overclock a fair bit ...

looks good, you'll see a great performance jump from your 3700+ @ 2.8GHz to Core2

H3x0rc!st · 7 Aug 2006 at 12:27

Hmm does that CPU Cooler actually fit the motherboard im using ? anyone had issues with it ?

Gibbs · 7 Aug 2006 at 12:33

H3x0rc!st · 7 Aug 2006 at 12:34

Gibbs · 7 Aug 2006 at 12:37

H3x0rc!st · 7 Aug 2006 at 12:39

Gibbs · 7 Aug 2006 at 12:40

only thing id change is get a mine instead of the ninja

H3x0rc!st · 7 Aug 2006 at 12:43

to late now

Gibbs · 7 Aug 2006 at 12:46

the Ninja and Mine are very silimar in performance terms, not a lot of difference, still both great coolers for the price all the same.

If you dont want the Ninja just call OCuk and get them to edit the order berfore it ships

Easy really.

But if i was you i would stick with the Ninja, although i havnt got a reason to choose it over the Mine lol.

Its down to personal thought really. But non the less enjoy the kit, get somes benchmarks up when its up and running

H3x0rc!st · 7 Aug 2006 at 12:46

oki, aye ill benchmark the hell out of it when it comes

Gibbs · 7 Aug 2006 at 12:48

sweet

I soo want to move to Core2 but I am trying my best to whole out for quad core.

I would reccomend possibly another motherboard, I have a DS3 and I can say that it seems to be playing up a little at the mo with my 805d, sometimes it perpetually restarts

other than that the mobo is fine, although there are reports on XS about the motherboards not liking the high multipliers so much above 400fsb

Ring them mate, I once had a £1200 order held up for the sake of a cheapo Heat Sink
