Is there space for a 9800gt there? The MeORB fits but you need another heatsink for the chipset.
Hi, first of all I use Intel's stock cooler. Yeah, the tiny version.
Then I actually have not used any thermal paste.
But I can't imagine that thermal paste could decrease the temps by more than maybe 5 degrees or so.
I will replace the Q9550 with the E8400 later, just to see if the temps will change after Intel's Burn Test .
The stock cooler comes with pre-applied thermal paste, so unless you removed that, you are using thermal paste.Then I actually have not used any thermal paste.
That was not very intelligent of you.Hi, I left the new stock cooler in the box and used the same cooler from my other system (E8400) instead.
To avoid mess I just wiped the remaining thermal paste off of that one.
What do you have to do to get a title like this .....
1) They didn't really fix it, although the sensors used in i7 CPUs are generally better.I thought Intel had rectified that temperature problem, have they not ?
1. Why do other people have better CristalDiskMark results ? Could I do anything to imrove that ?
It was awesome. Totally visiting that country again some day.Hi Danny Bui, cheers for your reply ... btw, how was your trip to China ?
Hi dekruyter, well ... having used the Mini iTX system with the Q9550 for almost a week now, I can't see any space for complaints.Cov, how is your system running? Is it finished?
Sorry, but I am not familiar with that issue.What do you think about the controversy about the AMD uatx 785g chipset not really having 7.1/8 channel audio?
