Should you not be holding it up in comparison with it's competitors in the same price range? For example, wether or not it beats out the TRUE is moot given the major price differential. I am not advocating the Xigmatek, just trying to keep perspective. This is a circa £20/$40 sink so to even be men...

Scythe Shuriken
Greetings
I trust linking to other sites is ok?
Anyway, I thought some folk may be interested in this Scythe Shuriken review.
Nice to have more low profile options.
SPCR got any review plans for the latest Scythe sinks?

Yeah, that's what I heard too. Also, as it happens, I just bought one from eBay ... :lol: Can't wait till it's in my possesion! Gonna be sweet to get rid of my FX-60 95 Watt monster. Although I am an AMD fanboi .. But the E8400 doesn't seem to be available in Europe anytime soon, or so I've heard. ...

Greetings :D 46c under what load? Have you stress tested it? "But what's stock temps?"........don't understand that line.....what is your question? Wether you should overclock depends on a few things. 1: Do you understand the methods involved? 2: Do you have adequate cooling arrangements in place? 3...

Lots of detail in your responses...appreciated. I am pretty experienced when it comes to overclocking so the means of getting the numbers I want isn't an issue---really the only thing I need decide on is the board. The board in the OP is a proven decent clocking board, even with the onboard graphics...

Thank you for the response aristide1 :D Given that I live in England my ambient summer temps will be mid-20's. How far would I wish to overclock a 6600?-----I suppose as far as she could go whilst staying at stock voltage (to aid cooling). I would be happy to reach 3 ghz or so under such conditions....

Decent DC overclocking an a matx case?
Greetings :D I am looking to eventually replace my current rigs with matx setups, specifically the Antec NSK2400 at this time.(I already use 2 of them). My question is: Can I build a decent Q6600 overclocking rig in these cases? Note that they are to run dc 24/7. I understand that the ultimate o/c w...

Perhaps the software utilities look so tacky because they are aimed more towards the inexperienced user. Experienced pc users tend to prefer making settings change thru bios anyway and most I know don't even look at/install the rubbish shipped with hardware. As to packaging, I never go to a hardware...

Greetings :D I have been considering these supplies for a while, but I have one question prior to purchase. I am looking to build a 775 system, initially with an Allendale or Conroe, but later to swap out the cpu for a Kentsfield. Do you think the 520 would have enough grunt for the Kentsfield varia...

My original idea was for: Abit NF-M2 nview and X2 4200+ (or 3800+). Main reason was because I really like the Abit board. However, given the limitations of the small form case it seems to me that the following may be a better choice: Asrock ConRoe945G-DVI. Intel E6300. (possibly the E6400) Abit/4200...

Sorry for jumping in but saves starting a whole new thread........ Can anyone suggest low profile coolers for an Allendale/Conroe in an Antec NSK2400 case??? Never used an Intel before but from the little I have read it appears that the stock cooler is rather noisy. The height of my choice of case r...
