Can the 3870x2 even run in crossfire yet? Thought the drivers were still not out.

And haha that looks awsome, like there's a disco going on inside.

I'm jealous :( I would consider the switch from 8800GT to one of the dual GPU cards if there were actually some games that pushed my existing hardware, but there aren't, so I can't really justify it.

Thinking of sticking a waterblock on my Q6600 but I'm worried about my first watercooling build being in an antec 900, not huge amounts of room. It's been done before, but just a bit tight for space...

I was pretty impressed with my own results.

13.2k

8800GT

E8400

DS3L

500w

2gb OCZ RAM 800mhz.

I think I could easily hit 14k since all my parts are currently on stock.

something is wrong with my setup i got a E8400 clocked at 4.2Ghz, Sapphire 3870X2 (also got two but one installed because of the drivers) 750W PC power and Cooling PSU, Thermaltright ultra 120 extreme , 4 GB OCZ PC8000 1080mhz ram 4 4 4 12, and a DFI Lanparty X38 T2R motherboard and im only getting 11k ? WTF i cant figure it out of what could be wrong ? My temps are exellent 40C and underload about 56C , i believe it might be the drivers ?

Yes, you are cluttering the boards, and it's pissing me off like nothing else in the world possibly could. No, not really, but you could've just bumped the other thread with your updated pictures.

If your going to overclock don't waste your time with any of the current phenom chips, they freak out at 2.4ghz.

unfortunately the Q6600 is a sweet deal for overclocking at the moment.

Speaking of CF 3870x2, whats your screen size/resolution ?? Its going to be overkill and hell worthless if you are running at 16x12 or lower.
