Yup, Win8 gave 10-15% increase in the bench marks I could run on it, A lot of them didnt work tho since the drivers wernt working properly on 8 yet. Single and duel threaded stuff went up a lot as well.

If its got a good 4+1 it might be able to do it with additional cooling. But the main thing to look for at the moment is good bios support.

Resistors look very close to the silicon. Other then that looks just like doing a phenom 2 de-lid, Also noticed there are some empty spots on there so might be possible to hardware unlock cores. By his picture it looks like he didnt...

Do this, Ai Overclock Tuner - custom (or off dont have this option on my board) CPU RATIO - 19x DRAM FREQUENCY - 200 CPU/NB FREQUENCY - 10X (or what ever gets you to 2000mhz) HT LINK SPEED - 10X (or what ever gets you too 2000mhz) CPU...

First id get all the other stuff off auto, Set it at there stock voltages. Then you want to make sure the HT and NB clocks are close to 2000mhz, Going higher then 2100 doesnt give much performance increase and tends to cause errors. I...

Depends, Some times they have the same part number for 2 cpu's such as a 125w and a 95w edition. Running the lower watt edition on a higher watt motherboard is fine, But if you try go the other way it can be a bit risky depending on the...

Give them the option, Sell it as both on ebay but say you will do free shipping if they dont want the cpu included, But then also jack the shipping price up another $5 more then it would really be. So ether was your better off.

agh, Just posted a long post but website timed out when posting and clicking back lost my post so ill just keep it shorter this time. Had already bought the ducting before I saw your video, But I had made ducting out of cardboard but it...
