RAM and motherboard are solid, and so is the FX6300, but at $140 you can in theory get an 8320 for a few more bucks (though you might want a beefier motherboard if overclocking it!). This of course depends on where you live, country...

From personal use, I have used two pairs of the Samsung magicmemory with a Phenom II X6, 1075T. Overclocking was a little touchy to me and it seemed more motherboard dependent. I could get the timings lower on an ASUS C5FZ than I could...

Quote:Also I did all my tests with 4 sticks, except 1test to show that 2 sticks performed no better than 4. Very good to know indeed. Thank you in advanced (really do hope they get here soon, I could use the memory for sure)

Quote:Originally Posted by thepoopscooper i know it makes a difference for things like benchmarks, but when it comes to pure gaming, it is irrelevant. It also tends to make a (not mind blowing) but definitely a noticible difference...

Does it -only- occur when it's left alone? Or does it end up this way if you say, run Prime95 or similar? Strange that it would be throttling at idle with the power saving stuff disabled. Is the Windows power plan set to High...

Still trying to figure out what I should do over the HT link speed. Works fine at 2700 it seems (need to stop testing, and actually performance bench soon), but is it preferred to have it match the NB at the cost of 300MHz? Haven't...
