Update on my computer. Unfortunately the original 4+Ghz overclock was doing fine. Stable in stress testing in Prime95, but now I loaded up some games and started upping the detail levels and it started wigging out a little. Had to back the clocks of to 3.6Ghz with a 1.21 V vcore. I did some digging as to why it was unstable, and I have isolated it to my RAM! I got DDR2 800 speed ram and with the FSB so high it was actually making the RAM unstable. So until I upgrade to some DDR2 1000 or 1066 then my CPU will remain at 3.6Ghz. Although I have shown what it will do. I think I could get it up higher as my temps were more than adequate (highest I hit under Prime95 load was around 45 deg C------PARTY!!!!), and I have a cheap but effective Artic Freezer Pro 7. Just think of the temps with a Zalman CNPS fan in there! w00t!!!!

In short. Get a 45nm chip, either the E8400 or the Xeon version, the E3110. They rock.
 
two different markets.

do you not have ram fins? and a quiet fan specifically modded just for them?

how noisy is your rig? and how often do you clean all the dust out of it? my pc picks up more dust than my dyson hoover.
 
Update!!!

My computer is finally finished for now!

It came with Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. So if any of you have COD4 on the PC, I volunteer myself for target practice :P

COD4 only runs, maxed @ 118 fps (y)
