It's great, was the 3.1 GHz the stock frequency or is it over-clocked? Check if you can hit up some multipliers and about 0.06 volts up on the power, and you could easily hit a stable 4.0-4.33GHz. ( if it wasn't already OC'd ) The base frequency would also need some pumping, though, lol.

It's not OC'd, and to be honest I don't need that frequency. I mean, I'm not doing something out-of-this-world to need 4.00-4.33 GHz. But maybe... who knows

Trust me, you will get serious bragging rights at a stable 4.33GHz if you have geeky friends.

My gaming rigs runs between 5.0 and 4.9GHz ( water-cooling and like 3 months of fiddling got me there ), but... it's not neccisary since majority of the hard work is on the graphics card, lolz. But it is useful when you want to do things like... impress friends ( and women ) by calculating the 72nd trillionth digit of Pi... or run Prime on all 4 cores and watch it scream for more.

Even the first one?


I don't think I can play the first one. Everything in 3D has too high graphics for my videocard

That's what I'm saying. The first kind doesn't really care because they have something close or just are too jealous to comment, nor does the second kind just because of their ignorancy (I mean, half of them don't even know what the hell is inside the 'magic computer box', let alone the specs of the contents...) - the LAST thing they'd be impressed by (both of the kinds) is calculating Pi, because for first it would be 'so wut, there's nasa and other rocket scientists for that' and for second it would be 'pi is 3.14 durr'.

Holy Shit!!! 4GB RAM?!
I wish I will throw my Old CPU away and get a new one with that kind of RAM after 2 Years due to XP will not get supported by Microsoft in 2 YEARS!

Lol Danny, Pi

And nice build EngiN33R!

I agree with Dannydeth on the overclocking, you reallys should if you have the chance!

Kinda off Topic, but I'm gonna make a thread for let's say, the most amazing PC build ever. That everyone in Unreal software will help building ( Not in real but i mean like help in finding the best hardware ever). So you guys Up ? DannyDeth, EngiN33R ? ( Might put the thread up today ;P )


About the bragging right stuff, totally agree with you EngiN33R. Only like one or two of my friends actually give a micro shit about computer performance.. One of them has no life and stays alone all the time.The other is a hardcore ps3 gamer. Sad all they wanna know is how to login into Facebook and that's all :/...

-it took me 1.5 minutes and 5 tries to cut the pi part out-

No sir, I know that there's much more to Pi than 3.14, but try explaining what you typed just there to any of my friends of either gender - they'll fall asleep after the one-two hundredth digit.
