We all know an FX55 @ 2.6Ghz can beat a 3.8GHz Prescott any day.

Right now a processor will double performance at doubel the cycles (just about) and im not talking about comparisons, im talking no single chip can do that.

It was perfectly stable. But I still bet an Athlon 64 FX55 could beat it. As I said earlier, people do not really care for core frequency anymore.

The A 64 also dose quite well for over clocking.

I am thinking about getting an even better WC system. Anyone have any good ideas? I am trying to push this FX55 to perhaps 3.5 or 3.6GHz.

Lots of options if you dont mind a little noise.

But it shouldn't be louder than Air Cooling. B) I noticed super xp's water cooling review, not bad. I like it. :) Last edited by Intel Fan Boyz on Sun Feb 06, 2005 4:10 pm; edited 1 time in total Contributed by Intel Fan Boyz, iVirtua Valued Contributor 100 iVirtua Loyalty Points • View Profile • Send Private Message • Back to Top Sun Feb 06, 2005 9:14 pm Reply and quote this post i like the cooling in the G5 powermacs.  Its silent.  Even when rendering video or playing Halo or battlefield or something.  The new ones even have water cooling, and 9 fans.  The os controls all the cooling, and everything is silent.  Its awesome.
