My Cheap Conroe Build

[dark4orz]

Hello People

I built my conroe 6600 rig yesterday. I managed to get this config for £350inc. vat & dly from a competitor:

Intel Conroe 6600 Retail + Asrock Conroe 945G-DVI Motherboard + 1GB Kingston DDR2 667 Memory.

I thought i will go with something cheap for now, until DFI bring out a Lanparty version for this platform. My stepping is: 6 - B2, L628; Does anyone have this stepping & how does it overclock ?

I have done some pics of my rig, so will post soon. After installing on the gubbings, let's see how fast it installs winxp pro; It took me 15min to quick format and install winxp sp2, when usually on my x2 4800+ it takes around 20-25mins.

I haven't overclocked this baby yet! But will do soon, then post up some piccys.
