If you link your 3dMark we can use it as a diagnostic tool too. We can use the information maybe to help you bring that score up! Post it man!

Can anyone do it? Of course. Just like anyoen can probably rebuild the engine of their car. DO THEY FEEL COMFORTABLE DOING IT? DO THEY FEEL COMFORTABLE ENOUGH TO DO IT TO CERTIFY IT'S STABLE AND READY TO GAME?
No, they don't. so they buy a dell. And then buy another one when that one starts sucking.
"My 7 year old sister can do it".......that's just stupid ass insults from a nobody. Who are you, and what entitles you to insult everyone here that doesn't build? Are they stupid? No. And with the TTP collective, I say "keep that shit to yourself, ass".
#2. I overclock. I overclock all sorts of shit. Overclocking was great and wonderful back in the day, when you could take a XPmobile from 1.8Ghz to 2.4Ghz with a few clicks in the BIOS. But then of course, you have to deal with heat, and voltage fluctuations, and instability. Anyone that tells me their oc's are effortless are either NEW TO THE OC GAME, or aren't actually OCing anything. you're just speeding it up, taking a screenshot, and then slowing it right back down. Pussies. Why even mess with it then?
the benefits of overclocking or for those who LIKE messing with computers. People like you and me. The people that call me to build them a box DON'T like messing with computers, are NOT prepared to deal with the consequences of an OC crash keeping them from being able to turn on their computers, of fuckign up their home PC. You and I might think it's no big deal......but the mere fact they call and ask for help means that THEY DON'T FEEL THAT WAY. So again, "keep that shit to yourself".
Saying you buy your hardware based on the assumption you will acheive X% of an OC simply means you don't buy a lot of hardware.
Processors are binned the way they are based on the performance characteristics when they leave the factory. Processors are locked down on multipliers, forcing you to step them up.......even worse. And even then, now you have to worry about stability on the RAM's clock OC.
Take your bragging and condecension to some OMG I CAN OC forum. Amateur.

Re: AMD phenom quad cores....
bottom fucking line $$$ for benchmark, the AMD phenom, out of the box, wins the day.
and that wins the day for 99% of the PC world, who don't even know what their BIOS is, much less how to use it.
no offense.....to all you non PC-nerd losers.....but it's the truth.

Re: AMD phenom quad cores....
I gave up on keeping up with what's new and hot. My computer doesn't suck until the games I want to play on it start telling me it sucks. Then I know it's time to get a new one.
I'm comfortable putting it all together and loading an OS but to get hot and heavy into the BIOS and stuff - I'll leave that to the pros.
I know I can get more bang for my buck if I assemble it myself, so that's what I do. I also know that I know just enough about software to make it run OK.
if I need help, I come here or other places to ask for it and have yet to be let down.
Don't shit where you eat.

I mean who wouldnt get satisfaction from having a chip that costs $130 bucks to run with one that costs $279 bucks? :9
