Sorry 82 quid at aria Ive downclocked the whole machine now to 3.5 gig with the latent temps I was getting throttling at 3.7 but only when the cpu is under 100% load at 3.5 there appears to be no throttling at all
Are you going for it dude ??
BTW my conroe build could be as little as 2 weeks away now im excited about that

Dude, what do you intend to do with your Conroe? Apparently Core 2 isnt that great at overclocking.

the E6600 at stock performs slightly better than my 805 clocked to 3.7 gig in the arithmetic test but in multimedia tests it absolutely wee's on the 805. I will be happy leaving it at stock or maybe just tweaking it a little

its going to be my main machine with an x1900xtx so its gonna be my main toy
I did see this however
