its bloody annoying. I use technet in order to test products I end up deploying and supporting for customers. I'm looking at the Microsoft Partner Program and Action Pack subscriptions. But it doesn't have licenses for older OS's and lots of my customers use, xp, win7, win2k3 etc.

meh. Got my H50 and installation went a dream until I tried to put my side panel back on. The one with the 200mm fan. The fan itself is far enough away but has a surround over the edge which interferes with the radiator by about 2mm which just prevents the top of the side panel from being...

Okay I went with the H50-1 and also ordered the filter I was talking about to stop dust on the inlet at the rear. Should be delivered tomorrow so will have a go at installing it then. The corsair vid for installation was good.

Thanks for the replies guys, the Megahalems is too tall for the p193 with the case unfortunately. It was actually my first choice. Just reading about the coolermaster one since i hadnt seen that one. Getting closer to ordering the H50 tbh. Just got to get over water leak fears! Will let...

Hi all, I have the system in my sig and want to upgrade the cpu cooler from stock to allow for some mild overclocking. I am currently considering the following 2 coolers: Corsair H50-1 Hydrocooler Noctua NH-C12P SE14 The P193 wont allow me to have a tower cooler since the side fan...

Try the WoW addon tweakwow. I use it with my i7-860 to enable all the cores. Restart of WoW required afterwards. Before it, I saw 100% usage on core 1. Now i see slightly lower usage but on 4 cores. (its set to 8 in the tool so seems to halve the number you set it too, weird). It certainly...

Yup I agree. I have the original Scythe Ninja revb on the wifes Q6600 box and i am never shure the bloody things are engaded correctly. Besides... seems a lot of weight hanging off the board. Has anyone flashed one of the new P55 Gigabyte boards by usb key?

I am considering a TRUE or the Megahalems provided they will fit in my P193. Quick hunt around doesn't show any bolt thru's in the uk yet, but the Scythe Ninja II supports 1156 I see. Anyone using one?

I recently bought a Gigabyte P55-UD5 and I'm waiting for some 1156 socket coolers or bolt thrus to appear on the market in the uk so am using the stock cooler. In the meantime I am trying to flash the bios from the F3 which it came with to the new F5f bios. Any idea how you get this thing to...

I have both monitors hooked up by DVI.

Finally got my new machine built (in sig) and Windows 7 installed without issue. However as soon as I installed the Catalyst drivers (latest from ATI site 8.66 RC6) windows boots and the monitor goes straight into Power Save mode as if the frequency is too high or something. I can boot into safe...

I'm itching for the EVGA P55 FTW reviews. None seem to be around yet.

I cant play all the games maxed out at the moment and I want to. Plus..... what caw2007 said :D and its been too long since my last upgrade!

i5 midpoint of whatever they release plus P55 natch

in UK the best price is £201.99 GBP Intel Core i7 920 D0 Stepping (SLBEJ) 2.66Ghz (Nehalem) (Socket LGA1366) - Retail http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CP-280-IN Am hoping to pay less for the middle of the 3 i5 processors they are planning on releasing.
