I gotta like this brand new forums section since i'm noob about pc.... :!:

So....let's see in how much time i'll get an answer about.....overclocking my cpu!!!!

As stated above, i'm noob, but i'm already aware about the risks of overclock. My question is, are those risks worth the increase of cpu performance? i hope my grammar is correct...
My processor is and AMD Athlon II x3 425 2.70 Ghz, how far can i get with it (in Ghz) ?

I hate you Peg xD

and Dude, I havn't had an AMD CPU for a long time now so I'm not to sure about the x3 425 but you should be able to hit 3.4/3.6ghz if your temps are ok and you have a decent motherboard. Also I'm pretty sure the 425 can be unlocked to a quad core but the 4th core may not be completely stable hence it being disabled and sold as an x3, sometimes it just needs a voltage increase to become stable... ;x

There arn't really any risks btw, as long as you stay within the safe voltage limits and your temperatures are ok then it should be fine, be sure you know what you are doing too

As for a performance boost. You should see some improvement.. Try it and find out Razz

Well thank you Mr Obvious Razz

I got bored of my watercooling xD

Ran it for a couple of years and got sick of maintenence Sad

PITA if I wanted to clean out my case or add/remove parts ;x

btw, why are you going with 1/2" tubing? You will need to use tubing clamps or compression fittings now D: I hate clamps... Look terrible.. With 7/16" tubing you don't need to use clamps because the tubing fits nice and tightly onto the barbs Wink

Guest

i think to use the 1/2" tube because i have the first version of mcp655 without fitting support and i don't have time and should for make this MOD

Like I just told you on xfire Razz

That's what I meant, use 7/16" tubing on 1/2" fittings/barbs, the tubing will fit very tightly and then there is no need to use clamps Wink

I finally updated the system on my Xperia x1i from Windows Mobile 6.1 to Windows Mobile 6.5 HTC edition with Touch FLO 3D. It looks good.

Nice, I've never used Windows Mobile though D;

Your clock looks a little like fancy widget for android xD http://androidcommunity.com/fancy-widget-for-android-20100612/

The new windows 7 phone was just released too right? I don't like the look of how you have to navigate in 7 :l

Peg and Pink are italian so they love apple products Razz

Form over function, fashion accessory.

but srsly, the ipad doesn't even have USB connectivity... I hate proprietary crap D:

Well, you don't need the iPad, no? Not such a big problem Smile

Samsung's main advantages over iPad

1. OS - Android 3.0 (works faster than iOS)
2. RAM - 512 MB
3. CAMERA!
4. Bluetooth v3.0
5. Weight

I can agree with the ram, considering it's always good to have more then less... but the rest is almost useless. The camera? Will you go around the city with your pad in your hands taking photos? That would be interesting to see on YouTube...
