Very nice beh, what sort of temps are you getting at load?

Late 40's early 50's but there is up too a 10 degree difference between 0/1 and 2/3 which suggests that one side is sitting higher than the other. The QX is lapped and i never had this problem with the Q6600 / P5K Premium which suggests that it's something to do with the backing plate and/or how the Dtec is sitting on the mobo.

After allot of reinstalls i have simple given up on it.

Very nice, so close to getting under 10sec SuperPI. If that was me I'd push it as far as possible just to get it under that 10sec mark

Bradley8988 · 18 Nov 2008 at 16:03

Idk dude it takes a lot to make much difference when your just over 10secs..

StevenG · 18 Nov 2008 at 16:45

Nice build. I remember StevenG's original build in that case which was also excellent work.

1kiwi · 20 Nov 2008 at 11:39

Yep - i basically used his build as a template - being my first WC build i wanted to remove as much of the unknowns as possible.

It could be allot better with regards to mess around the PSU but in the end i couldn't be bothered
