    exacly

    this section was set up for the very people who do want to overclock... I dont see why people continue to post "u dont need to" or " why would you want to do that" posts

    Mabye, because you are all stupid, taking 200 and 300 euros processers and clocking them higher than ones that sell for 1000 and above. I mean that is a really stupid idea. Next you may be trying to put holes in your dell, because you think there 1 cpu fan may not be doing a good job of cooling your crappy pentium and dual 6800s that you wasted money on. Its because they know no better.

    Uh oh Rich, I think your sarcasm detector malfunctioned there :P

    krazy has an opteron with serious watercooling running at pretty silly overclocked speeds. He has seen the light like us...

    I'm sure he's no stranger to the problems of Dells either. Think he was just ripping it out of Chavez.

    optys hate the cold, most wont run under -10degrees

    Hmm, well under a storm with about 1.6 volts it did 40degrees under load. Hope the vapo turns out around 0. If not I have a 3ghz presscot in a dell that with a new mobo could work out.
