Ok thanks, Ill be purchasing your second spec.

Before purchasing the 955 just double check that your motherboard supports CPUs up to 125W, otherwise the 955 is a no-go. The X3 is a 95W and some boards only support up to this TDP so it's worth checking before you take the plunge. Otherwise, it looks great!

Already done that before posting the spec.

Well if you dont remember doing it, then it must have been a while ago

But you must have MM access now? I swear I saw your name listed as viewing the hardware section sale forum late last night?

Thats easy for a GTX560ti/6950.

Have you ever tried unlocking CPU cores?

Yes, But the computer freezes after a bit.
