thats what i lack.

Cool temps?

[bob saget]

I have 0 experince. I will need to make a thread when i jump in, for advice.

[Bman212121]

Are you running the 9500 at full speed?

[bob saget]

Cool temps?

common sense.

Oh, well that's what the board is for. If you don't feel comfortable lapping, then I wouldn't suggest doing it. The tangible gains are going to be slim. If for some reason I broke the processor I wouldn't be too devastated, but if it were my only computer to use I probably wouldn't have tried it.

[Bman212121]

common sense.

That's kind of a hard one to teach sometimes. You can learn it, but it's usually not the easy route.

[bob saget]

no, mine seems fine, its the new one i am wondering about.....but getting it set and ready first is the right thing to do.

Yup. I always wait a week or two before I try to OC or do anything special. That way I know it wasn't something I did. Makes it easier to try to troubleshoot the problem if you have less variables involved.

[bob saget]

yep. >>>>

*looks at postcount*

Damn I've made a lot of posts today. :rofl

[Bman212121]

I was talking earlier about how there was a 600 post gap between the two people I'm passing.

[bob saget]

oh i see.

[Bman212121]

I was only 1/3 of the way there when I said that. Now I'm almost 2/3 of the way.

yea rofle. deoending on the situation, i can probably do 400-500 a day if it calls for it.

[Bman212121]

Anyway we can go back to talking about computer hardware if you want. Spamming kind of sucks if there is nothing to discuss.

[bob saget]

you are insane today...

[Bman212121]

yea rofle. deoending on the situation, i can probably do 400-500 a day if it calls for it.

Heh, yea that's the one thing about this... I normally averaged under 5 posts per day, so this whole 200 - 300 business is just ludicrous.

[Bman212121]

by the time this crap gets done I could be on the first page. :rofl

[Bman212121]

Hey Bob did you have L4D?

[Bman212121]

..

[bob saget]

the first boot should be done with 1 stick of RAM?

[bob saget]

Heh, yea that's the one thing about this... I normally averaged under 5 posts per day, so this whole 200 - 300 business is just ludicrous.

ludicrous speed.

[Bman212121]

Yea, what I like to do when putting together a new pc is this.

Cpu + HSF (Obviously :p)/mobo/1 stick of ram, no video card. Add the PSU and make sure everything is plugged it. Then power the pc on and make sure it throws out a beep code for the GPU. If it does that then I'll add my GPU and see if it posts.

[Bman212121]

That way if everything blows up in a fiery inferno I lose as little as possible. It also eliminates about every possible variable that you can. It's even better if you have a known working PSU, so it's just one less thing to worry about.
