    ihs removal

    I am toying with the idea of removing the heatspreader from my 57FX but have heard some horror stories about resistors also being removed too. Does anyone know a good method of how to remove the ihs or have any tips to help me. I have a busted 3500+ that I will practice on first.

    nTune memory test.

    Just wondering if anyone had used the ntune memory benchmark. Its a very simple and quick test that is hardly reliable but I was wondering what scores peple are getting on it. Its best to run it just after booting into windows and the first 3 runs are the best. It scores your ram on read...

    Which is better, need a good ram benchmark

    I got a tough choice to make about which ram to keep. Its between Mushkin Redline xp4000 UT or Ocz VX4000. The Redline are the better overclockers doing 265ht at 2-2-2-6 before burn in, the Vx do 255ht also at 2-2-2-6. I have benched them with a few very basic benchmarks at the exact same...

    To all 57-FX owners

    I have purchased a new 57-FX and have started to overclock it on water. At present I am a little dissapointed with its abillities in its o'clocking. I have been running it at 2.972 100% prime stable but needed a whole 1.530vcore to do so. I think I could get a 3ghz stable clock with some more...
