pooh

that's why you pwn

seen better wattermarked images on inet imo.
atleast make pictures yourself any1 can rip that poop from that forum lol

Don't lie, Core i7 @ 4.6Ghz doesn't even excist.
Best on the market atm is an Overclocked Intel® Core™ i7 980x Extreme (4.0GHz, 12MB Cache)
Unless you overclocked it extremely, but I doubt that is any good. And processors like that cost way to much.

It's overclocked by the manufacturer so it means you can do it far beyond that in your personal O/C : )
Wicked stuff there btw Mr. Postman.

This guy knows what he's talking about, no wonder he posts his OC results on some specialized forum.

[Mr. Postman]

It's not a factory overclocked i7 either.

There's a reason my CPU is watercooled. It's the 'standard' Core i7 920, which runs at a default speed of 2.67 Ghz, which is heavily overclocked as noted by some others.

For the geeks, no, HyperThreading is still turned on, yes, boost mode is disabled, locked multiplier at 20x. & no, it's not the new D0 batch, it's the 'old' C0, which runs extremely well.

The guy above me is totally correct. I've posted my overclock results, pictures and specs earlier on Hardware.info. That's why they are watermarked.

Thanks to the rest for your positive input.

That's a Razer DiamondBack 3G btw, but I'm considering to switch as it keeps 'running to corners', as in, the mouse is dying. Suggestions? I don't want the DPI to be too high, as I need to know where I click.

Why would anyone with such a system specs come play soldier of fortune 2 mp demo now all of a sudden?
I dunno but I can also post some random pics from a hardware forum here and say it's mine...
Anyway if it's true, very nice poop you got there!
I got a Core i7 950, is the overclocking any good for your system? I got enough speed tho, won't overclock probably.

[Mr. Postman]

And you're free to wonder. Last year I had an AMD/ATi system, regular Phenom, 4870 X2, which was constantly broken down. Basically, all year, I had to suffer on a Pentium 4, 768 MB RAM and Radeon 7000 VE (FIRST Radeon card) system, which ran terribly slow and could play nothing.

That's when I started to play SoF2 Full, with my clan, [R.S.I]. And to date, I still do, just on a system with higher end specs. I rarely game though, most I play is SoF2, Metro 2033 and Crysis & some Quake 3. I posted I normally have 3 monitors, I tend to code a lot and that's where the multiple screens and the 3 video outputs on the GTX 295 come in handy.

Other than that, I'm a hardware fanatic who loves to 'play' with it (not that way, you h*rny individuals).

950 should be a perfect candidate to overclock, just make sure you're running anything else than the stock cooling, as that sucks ass. If the system you have is less than 9 months old, you have a high chance of having the D0 batch, which overclocks better generally. You can buy my old Thermalright TRUE 1366 cooler if you want, still looking to sell it after I made the switch to liquid.

Thanks for the info, does overclocking has any effect to the lifetime of your processor? Always thought it was no good..
Since I bought a new desktop about 1 month ago my system specs are kinda familiar with yours

Intel Core i7 950 @ 3.07GHz
1,8 GB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 295
12 GB DDR3 Memory (1333 MHz)

And I got watercooling.

I smell Alienware for some reason.

It does shorten the lifetime of a processor, but basic rules are sorta, the processor will die when you've replaced it already anyway. Of the 12 years it might last, it will perhaps make 8. But who cares, especially when you've got high end hardware you're not replacing it every 10 years.. That'd be insane.

Heat is the primary killer, but don't be too quick, voltage is just as important. Be sure when you begin to overclock, you know what every setting does and don't just up everything. Some things need to stay low, some things need to stay close to other rates. I could walk you through it though.

It's pretty neat stuff you have there, but sorry to say, custom built would've been better. The 12 GB is overkill, you could've gotten 6 on a higher speed and perhaps invest in an SSD. I have 6 GB RAM 1600 Mhz rated RAM (at ~1867 Mhz) and it's not like I come short of it. Definitely not. Have you already disabled your page file though? I'll be glad to help you tweak some.

Is it the future? how much did u pay for all this poop?

About 1600 euros all together
Sold my ps3 with all games and laptop to get it
