Just in case you needed any more reasons to avoid OcUK...

They sell an "overclocked" Q6600 system with 1.7v pumping through the CPU.

Absolutely shocking and disgraceful. They essentially sold a system that had severely castrated life expectancy.

lol.

WTH would they pump 1.7v through the CPU?

Unless they give you powerful cooling that was made by God himself.

What's the clock speed?

 

[D-Cyph3r]

The first line is a clicky.

It was only a 3.4Ghz OC... Just goes to show the ability of the guys that are building these machines.

"Dammn it! Another BSOD.... I really dont want to work late tonight, maybe i'll just max out the vCore."

 

[zak4994]

lawlers.

jesus christ....I like ocuk for the fast delivery and they usualy have good stock levels but 1.7v good god must have been idleing at the t-junction LOL

p.s something burnign :rollingla

Thats Stokies for u?

That's what mass overclocking will get you.

They wont want to spend time perfecting the OC, they'll just want to get it stable.

It's bad though!

Wow 1.7v!

I was scared to do 1.5v on water...

What cooling is that guy using?

Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro.

Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro.

Goodness. I'm suprised the CPU isn't burning out already.

Considering how easy it is I'm surprised that everyone doesn't just build their own. The only type of PC I'd have built by someone else is a bespoke mega-bucks job (hi Tom).

Generic PC from generic suppliers, what's the point?

VB

HEHEHE,

Keep it up !!! :rollingla
