RE III - Frankie · #1 07-07-2012, 03:01 AM

hello. and welcome to the forums heere if this is your first time. me I've been heere a while, but lets not get into that. What I have heere today is an upgrade I have wanted since first building my computer and it is a nice touch to complete it in all it's intended glory. What I am talking about is CPU power. Extreme Edition power. nameably the Core i7 965 EE Chip. It was the highest rated chip support by my extreme overclocking MB and I finally can say I now own it. Not only that, but system is maxxed out now with this. thanks for everyone's help and tips in bringing this dream to reality! Here is the link to the chip which I bought on Ebay today. it is a texas based company so it should not be long before I can unleash this BadBoy!! Cheers :

I finally have the 965 installed. runs pretty well. at last use my 920 was stuttering in games a bit and with the mouse, but not anymore now with this beast.

atm I have Intel Speedstep on and it's running really at 35*c at 3.4ghz. from memory the 920 would be about 50* at that speed. also on first bootup at stock clocks 3.2Ghz BIOS read it was running at 20*c. I was pleased to see this as it tells me whoever previous owner was never did "heavy" overclocking. plus no problems since so I'm quite thrilled. on the ebay listing I was the second last buyer to own one of 43 of these chip[s going at that price (250$). once in a lifetime opportunity!
