It's not melted yet, but the heat sync the CPU is connected to is hotter than i have felt it before![]()
Ive been folding on my kids E6850 clocked at 3.6Ghz for a week now. Now Ive been waiting for my rig, well waiting for the new Intel Quads to see how perform. So do u guys reckon I shud wait a bit longer or just get a Q6600 and clock the sucka. I supoose I cud guess what most the answers are gonna be.. but its so tempting to wait just a bit longer for the new ones.
Any news of the new Intels? <--- directed to anyone that works at Hexus or has anyone that has heard anything?
Doing on my A64 3200 (@2.15GHz) atm, set it to use 95% CPU and it's doing 5000 steps every 40m or so. Can't wait to get it going on my Q6600 soon.
Anandtech has an article of Penryn vs Conroe and the differences clock for clock are not huge. They recommend just buying now.
