11032!!!!!

I'm a seriously happy guy

Congrats Nice work mate... Anymore left in the rig?

Impressive cpu speed with that Sandy.

Whats the alternative to Ati tool to overclock the X1800 XT?

I've tried Ati Tool 0.25 Beta 14 and it just keeps locking up and screen goes blank until i reboot

mines here too. however my cpu isnt so its in its box still. A couple of things - does it require both molex connections to be in? are the cat 6.2 drivers ok to use or can I use omega ones?

I know its not related but what the hell are those big trezer things in the motherboard box (dfi ultra-d)

Both molexes? If you are talking about the PCI-E to dual molex connector, then yes. It is not required but gives a much more stable stream.

The tweezers are for removing jumpers etc - no real use unless you have the stubbiest fingers in the world.

thanks, dammit 6 million molex's here i come! does the graphics card need its own set two from the power supply or should i share other things on the hard drive line? at the moment i have hard drives on one and graphics/dvd drive on the other

I always put high load things on their own line, like graphics cards. Stick the opticala nd the hdu's together.

Good work Random, nice piece of clocking indeed
on both counts.

Nice work Gibbo too for getting more top gear (even if i did just miss em )

Very handy things! for pulling bios chips, makes you wonder if they expected a lot of bad bios flashing

I thought they were the SLI jumper tweezers and could be used on all jumpers - I know they can remove the BIOS chip though...

thanks, i used the treezers. Im just using ATi tool and instead of me seeing artifacts when i tried to find the max core temperature it just sort of froze at 650mhz core then turned off my monitor for me. nice

Not enough volts, Clocks keep rising but there arn't enough volts going to the core, thats why it freezes
