it's better than what i can do and i have the 8800gts ssc 640mb, e8400 wolfdale, 4gb of ram, and running windows vista 64. at stock i get about 10,400. i had to change some things in bios and run...

see, yours is better. i tried overclocking, but i got some artifacts in cod4 and i can only do antiliasing to 4x without jacking things up. GT is the way to go. myabe i should get a gt and sli them....

I should have gotten an 8800GT 512. =o( My 8800GTS 640 Superclocked only gets around 10400 on 3dMark.

okay, downloaded everest ultimate and it says Core #1 39C and Core #2 31C. guess i'm good to go.

that's what i was thinking. plus it would smell like smoke. i don't know what program to use now. core temp won't work with vista 64 and it seems like other programs will have higher readings.

i can't use that program because it requires in a digital signature of the drive and i have windows vista 64, so it won't work

pc probe II, it came with my motherboard

it says my cpu temp right now is 254 degrees C. the fan is spinning 2518 rpm. what do i do??

Mine seems to be working fine. =o)

Does anyone have one of these? Does it work well? Could it be used in a fast game like COD4? I am building my gaming computer tomorrow and I want a wireless keyboard and mouse. What's the best I can...

i can't wait. all of my stuff should be coming in approx 3 days and hopefully i'll be off that day. should i connect the new build only to my big screen or should i connect it to my vga monitor and...

is overclocking really necessary anyways? i mean, aren't the video cards good enough that we wouldn't need to overclock?

shoot, i ordered the p5k-c last night also. i also got the Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Wolfdale 3.0GHz 6MB L2 Cache LGA 775 65W and eVGA e-GeForce 8800 GTS 640MB SSC. am i in trouble?

i saw a guy on youtube with an antec 900 case and he had to bore 4 large holes on the back panel to make cable management look clean. he also had to get some extenders. check this out.

okay, doesn't sound so bad then. i live in a tiny dorm room though, so my working area will probably be my bed. haha
