w00t last chip maxes 6.8ghz ftl

PS forgot to add, the 1st chip killed my antec HCP-1200w somehow? doesnt even light the board up anymore when plugged in. Back to my trusty HEC cougar 1200watt lol.

Chest day, then back at it. 2 more 352's left and 3 347s

I'm just gringing out some 3D today, set the rig up on the porch to see if there is anything else in this 280, it may be the biggest POS card I ahve ever owned ..

It is in the picture right next to the 8pin CPU wire.

Killed my P8P67 Pro today *sigh.

Not even overclocking, I was playing with that EPU shit it popped and died *sigh.

Guess later tonight I will setup the Sandy Bridge 24/7 Rig and put my AMD system up for server duties.

How the hell did the HCP die? Corsair is a strong unit too. I'm eyeballing the AX850w for the grinder. Still have the TPQ1200 if ever needed.

benching celerons on the p5e3 lol, take 990x + 580 at 1.57v fine but then dies on the stupid 775 board?

It doesnt even turn the "off" lights on when powered on :X

Chuchnit · #**378** 03-27-2011

of all things to be doing to kill your PSU. Celerons.......

There is a term for that (no not irony). But using a 1200W PSU for a 200W max load is not a good idea.

Think it has to do with putting enough pressure on the all the rails or something. I know back i nthe day if you wanted to use a PSU just for 12V, you had to add load to the 3.3 and 5v rails to keep the PSU from going belly up.
