RE: [Blog] New Computer

What goes on in an overclocker's mind... My $150 cpu > your $200 cpu. And underclocking would be the other way around. That's like not really cool.
Multiplier underclocks generally don't work as well. Well, underclocks are a cheap way to reduce heat/sound...
Aren't the only ways of overclocking either increasing the cpu multiplier or increasing the reference clock (aka. FSB or whatever else it's called)?
If I decrease the reference clock instead, that would underclock everything else as well...

Three temps in the middle could be misc motherboard sensors or something like that (like chipset temperatures).
Something in the chipset reaching almost 70 degrees seems bad...
ZiNgA BuRgA Wrote:Ah, missed that part. But try raising the voltages slightly, since you seem to have plenty of room heatwise. I know my Gigabyte board won't resume from sleep if the voltages are too low.
Does sound like a power issue though. What's the brand/power rating of the PSU?
Power rating is 480W. Brand is unknown. Some generic brand I don't know. Hell, I can't really even figue out the brand. It's not like anywhere on the PSU. Got a model number... I guess I can websearch that.

Haven't gotten any yet.
