Let the pics speak for themselves. :guitar:

**cooliscool** · October 30th, 2004

Stability anyone?

I apologize for this thread, I just was so overjoyed being able to achieve such an OC. I had to let it out.

Ipswitch · October 30th, 2004

Those benches are very impressive. Did you prime95 it yet?

D.D. · October 30th, 2004

nice :-) and i hope ur test for stability = at least 12 hrs of Prime95 and 12 Hrs of Memtest86...else u mite become like SzL

EDIT : LoL...a little later than ipswitch i was

Hah, tomorrow we will see another "cpu bbq" thread by cooliscool

Hope you have better luck then you have been with hardware, nice overclock

**cooliscool** · October 30th, 2004

Hehe, I'm praying for stability and life in this CPU.

I'm going to P95 when I go to sleep till I wake up (usually around 12 hrs

).

Thanks for the comments guys.

Oh yeah.. I told everyone else on IRC how I killed my GF4 Ti last night.. I used Zalman Thermal Adhesive to hold the CPU HSF I had onto it.. well, it didn't apply correctly, and was overheating badly, so I decided to try and take the HS off and redo it. Bad mistake, that stuff had already cured and is f00king tough. It took the whole GPU with it, still stuck on the HSF.

Ah well. I'm running an Asus 5200U right now until my replacement 9600XT gets here this week.

Enjoy the pics.

edit: P95ing now @ 50c with a $12 Copper Cooler and AS5.

WEXP · October 31st, 2004

I sure hope you follow my example

**Razor Blade** · October 31st, 2004

Sweet overclock. LOL@The Video Card

**hushypushy** · October 31st, 2004

man, that's an insane OC you got there. if i were you i'd run 48 hours of prime95, just in case. btw, you've killed a ton of hardware so far, i'm so proud! (ah yes, my 3 dead hard drives, dead sempron 2200+, among other things)

Esturk · October 31st, 2004

Holy **** cooliscool.. You should seriously make a list of hardware you've destroyed.

I'm afraid that would be nearly impossible, given how much I've killed, hehe.

I'm really suprised I never killed the Tually or the Asus TUSL2-C.. it's still working beautifully at 1.8GHz.

I totally raped the GF4 Ti.. burned, cracked in half, totally screwed (albeit not as bad as WEXP's CPU

). I'll post some pics soon.

WindHydra · October 31st, 2004

How did you fund all these?

RF · October 31st, 2004

Cooliscool you would have to dig a very deep grave to fit all your destroyed hardware into it

I wouldnt sleep while p95'ing on that o/c just incase it decides too.. melt or something

Me too, I have destroyed a very big amount of computer hardware through the years.

Coolsvilleman · October 31st, 2004

I haven't destroyed nearly as much hardware as you guys have but still. How do you fund this stuff. Like with all that money... couldn't you just buy an alienware computer... and then severly overclock that puppy. Or do you get your harware at *discount* prices.

**Raziel** · October 31st, 2004

cooliscool, one thing for sure, you'll never borrow any hardware from me

Alienware can lick my balls.. I'd much rather keep building my own.

Much more rewarding, and you know how everything is done.

well out here in the west, it's all about FRY'S ELECTRONICS!! that, and sharing. everyone gets computer parts that they need to pass on...after a few computers you have enough spare parts to begin building computers out of that.
