I've been trying to overclock my system the past few days (unsuccessfully I might add). I got home from work today and my Ethernet doesn't work. My other comps work on the router and I even tried resetting the modem and running it straight to my rig without the router and still no good?

Ok this is my first OC'ing adventure so bare with me. My second to the last good overclock settings were: FSB = 1195 Multi = 11 linked which set my DDR2 rate @ 896.3 MHz CPU Volt 1.3375 DDR2 Volt 1.85V Then I tried FSB = 1195 Multi = 10 unlinked DDR2 @ 929.5 MHz CPU Volt 1.3375...

I can't play it. I'm ill. The auto detect settings put everything at very high, and my monitor only supports 1920x1200. It runs at like a frame every two seconds if at all. I have to turn everything down to high and lower the res to get it playable. And then it looks like crap. I'm running Vista...

I have an ABIT IN9 32X MAX. I used to have a Q6600 G0, now I have a QX6700. In the bios it wont allow me to change the multiplier from the stock settings on the Q6600. And CPU-Z still shows me that my processor is the Q6600. Do I need to reset my bios or update the bios? If I reset the bios will...

I just got in my 8800GT. I have an abit in9-32x-max m/b and it has a 4 pin molex connector below my last expansion port. I also have a Galaxy DX 1000w power supply. On the cable with the 6+2 pin for the 8800GT there is also a 4 pin molex that says for m/b only. Do I really have to connect the...

I've never overclocked before. Are there any good threads on overclocking when you have your multiplier unlocked. I've read a few on locked multipliers but if there are some neat tricks with them unlocked I'd like to know about them. (I got my QX6700 for free)

I started leak testing and I noticed there is a huge bubble at the top of my loop coming out of my cpu block. I've only been leak testing for about 15 min but the bubble doesn't seem to move. There is some tissue in the way but you can see the bubble a little bit. Here you can see the...

How much shielding do magnetic pumps have. I don't have a whole lot of room in the bottom of my case and my pump is almost touching my sound card. This Wed. my 8800GT is suppose to be here and It will be alittle further away. BTW this is my first computer build and my first WC loop.
