i need 775...so many points to get :D

biostar? Tforce?

Just made an offer on a C26750 for 50 bucks

I have a a board and Q6600 on the way and an e6600 in the bull pen

I will keep an eye out on some of the sites I am on for ya .... what's the budget ?

I grabbed the ASus Rampage Formula and Q 6600 for $ 190.00
unfortunatly it is an x38 but figure I will give it a go ....

I have a UDR3P as back up if it is a POS .... but DDR3 ... :ohcrap:

tpower i45

its for e8xxx clocking...gb ep45t-usb3 doesn't have that gtl subsettings..like biostar.

thanks for the lookout

budget 200$ or so..but right now..i'll wait and try the tpower if it arrives... i killed my last one...it was uber good..but didn't have ln2 back in the day....

Koool

Just reeled in the C26750 for 55 bucks ....

Tell ya I have enough hardware complied over this down time to bench for the rest of the year ............ LOL

lol i haz lots of rams sticks here...worthless points :D

just quick thing... is biostar still good?
cuz i have been told many different things...

i had the biostar before....it was an awesome board :D

Actually I think biostar is probably still really good. They just don't have a huge presence in the US market or the benching scene. There are some Taiwanese guys who pump out pretty good results on biostar hardware on AMD and Intel platforms. I guess benchers just go with what we are familiar with and is marketed the right way. Biostar doesn't spend alot of money on marketing.

I just bought a REX for $249. Is that good ??

That's about right for them.... it's amazing how well they hold value.

many (xtreme) tried the tpower i45...when it came out...i was still doing air then..sad

Right. The p45 boards were well known but I just don't think biostar is on many peoples top 3 brands when thinking about sub zero. Their P555's and amd 890 boards seem to be pretty good though.

MD, that's the going price for a REX.

I picked up a tpower i45 last year and it was very easy to OC and fun to learn to solder on. Couldn't find a CPU worthy of it and let it go for a song.

I've got an E8600 and a Pentium 945 I want to freeze on it. Maybe even the Q9450?
