Thanks for the info. The academic version is definitely the best deal. It's the full version of Professional for $65. Too bad I didn't order it 3 months ago, it use to be $30.

Trying to figure out what the best bang for the buck is. I have some info about the differences but can't seem to find all the info I need. Here's what I know/think I know. Retail: No previous version required. License can be...

Similar to anything else, increase the FSB or multiplier. I'm not sure if the 9650 has the multiplier locked or not. If it is, you won't be able to change it, you can only increase your FSB. Follow the guide.

What are you guys running the CPU-NB Vid voltage at? +.1 seems best for me. More or less and I can't get as high.

What FSB have you gotten up to? I've done 1.475 V before, but haven't pinpointed exactly where I get unstable for that voltage. I don't think it's giving me too much more... but I am running at x17.5 when it fails (since I was trying to...

Yeah, if I was confident that my temps actually are 42C @ 1.45 V, I would go higher. But not being experienced with the newer CPUs, I don't know how trustworthy my reading is.

So I'm running at 1.45 V @ 3604 MHz and 42C according the SpeedFan. I can go a little higher, but it starts failing prime95 at around 3650 MHz. How accurate are these on die temps? I figure I should be able to go up to ~50C. What's the...

What would be the reason to get the 790FX if I plan to use it with the 5000 series? If I'm just using one graphics card, what's the difference??

Is the 790FX chipset worth the extra $40 compared to the 790X? I don't plan to use two PCI-E 16x slots at once, and I don't need the onboard video. So the only thing I see is that the GA-MA790FXT-UD4P might overclock more than the...

Anyone have this card that can measure it for me? I need to see if I can fit it in with my watercooling gear and they don't seem to have the dimensions published.
