Default E6700 **4 GHZ** Conroe Power At Long Last For The Jabba
What can I say that hasn't been said by Dan already, except that its even more "snappy" to use than I thought it would be.

Just a quick small overclock (and new JW record) before I get the serious hardware on it tomorrow.

freeking hell :shock:

yeah, we all know it already.... but it doesn't make it any less unfuckingbelievable!

I wonder how quick photoshop would be with a conroe.... I know its time to upgrade the PC...

hows the 4M calculation? 1: :shock: 30.9 :shock:
yeah, I'm stuck in the stone age with a 7:06 or something

Thats more to do with disk speed and I am only on a single 10K raptor right now, tomorrow I will have two 74GB raptors in a raid 0...maybe aim for something like 30 secs...but as I leave my computer running 24/7..boot up times don't really worry me too much.

Think £130 for the mobo and £330 for the conroe.

BTW looks like you got a hella deal. Even though the processor sounds expensive I bet its worth all that money! Now mind showing us the case?

A long time and a lot of hard work and a fair bit of bravery with a £330 cpu, but all is good at 4 GHZ !
