SuperPi 32M run : 12m 43.125s / MSI P55-GD65 / Intel Core i5 750 @ 3058 MHz / 7-7-7-20 (2:6) @ 437 MHZ

Very, very basic overclock. Will be pushing harder in the future but I didn't want to go to bed tonight without at least a preliminary result.

Oh, yeah. And pictures! (In just a moment, check post 2!)

Good. I didn't have much luck with the O.C. Genie, but I'm running 24/7 stable at 3.8GHz with DDR3-1600 RAM. It even turbo-clocks past 4GHz when I'm only using 1 core.

Yeah, unfortunately I didn't have any zip ties around when I was doing the install, and the power supply is only intended for temporary duty while I troubleshoot (& RMA, if needed) my 1000W hec Zephyr modular unit.

I'm sure I could see temps drop a couple of degrees if I cleaned things up, but right now I'm fairly happy with the performance and have more pressing things to spend my time on.

The O.C. Genie worked for me, kinda. It set the processor to 3.4GHz at 1.450v and ram to 1400. It's alright but I prefer doing it manually.

Nice Overclock by the way.

Was just there (Columbus MC) myself Friday looking at the i5 parts! I have a mATX case and they had a very nice mATX gigabyte board there, and of course the price on the i5 is INSANE!

I too looked at the coolers and found the stock to lack excitement. That website you linked to for the mega shadow was awesome, never seen it before. If I decide to to i5, I'm definitely making a micro center trip, but I want either the mega shadow (if it will fit mATX) or the noctua on that site.
