Akasa A-62 AMD x6 *Zosma* build

I wouldn't trust your overclocks tbh... Stability test should be many many hours.
As much as I say you're not guaranteed for the overclock, we are extremely luck these days, I'd say if you just spent A LOAD OF TIME messing about (read some guides), you'll get higher clocks and keep it stable. Whether it's worth it or not... Meh.
You can't just throw voltage at a problem and expect it to go away.

I know, you also have to mess about with Nb Ram freeqeuncy.ect and lots more, but as soon as it taps 3.6ghz its unstable
 
Definitely reading the right temps? I'm not being a knob with you, it isn't obvious with AMD chips

See how my "cores" read as 15c in HWmonitor (and Coretemp, Speedfan iirc) when the actual temp your interested in is the CPU (31c doing nowt) or sometimes TMPIN0/1

Yeah, i run with speedfan witch gives me a overall cpu temp, and also asus suit reads the same temp
Later i will download the otherprogram just to clarify

Why would anyone want an old Alienware?
Stop buying old stuff. The shiny plastic tat wrapping will do nothing to improve the benchmark scores...

because just for a case the resale value on the bay is around £70
and if i built it u it would be around £250 for a core2duo spec
im not using it in my build i prefer the stacker tbh, im just mentioning that i got one
and i only got it because it cost me... £10 at a car boot
and £5 for the working 19" flatscreen there aswell :p

hahahah :L nahhh those main boards wouldn't fit i dont think, anyway i could break down her shuttle steal the celeron and a lil bit of ddr2, the hdd and cooler, and then build it as my own computer to sell on :P

wouldn't she notice? :p

Good point ;)

anyway... It has a intel motherboard in it, its worth almost nothing although being lga 775 and having ddr2 sockets and pci-e it cant take anything more than a HT pentium chip, + it looks in fairly bad condition, is there any point in testing it? :) and if so with what? i only have socket 478's and ddr1 :L

No, im not going to, im going to sell one case at trade price, or maybe one desktop at trade price for alienware, and it will sell
 
You know people are not going to buy a PC just because of an alienware case? People usually only buy alienware from the site directly, alienware cases are too easily obtained...
