fps justin · August 8th, 2006

was it completely passive and was the cooler a tower cooler?

Lol you ppl. I just like fast toys.

This E6400 is cooled by custom Danger Den watercooling. Temps don't go above 43c.

When you review it, make sure you report the temperatures while the CPU fan is turned off. MPC said that they ran their Core 2 at 100% load for hours without a fan.

lol MPC might have more (*****) then me because Intel did not include a fan for nothing.

I had her up to 3.4ghz. And then I just stopped going. Its runs 3.2GHZ with a little bump in vcore, maybe 5% boost vcore. One day I feel froggy will crank here up to 3.8GHz and run some benchmarks.

Next month you should be able to get E6400 for about 245.00 or E6300 even cheaper.

NICE. Have you tried to get this to work in your other Asus 975X board?

Very tempting indeed! But that is prettymuch the basic retail price isn't it? (reference link)
I hate how these retailers are jacking up the price because of all the hype surrounding Conroe. I'm not even thinking about biting on a 6400 until it is less than $220.

Intel Core 2 Duo
Intel E6300-1.86/2M/1066 $221.25
Intel E6400-2.13/2M/1066 $272.50
Price in Canada at a bulk component seller. =| The E6400 retail for $305.00.
Canadians dollars, but still, pretty crazy.
Though for that price, i'd get a 4600+ X2, so it's still worth it if you're building a new computer. I don't switching is worth it yet for me however.

yeah i know that feeling, actually i got CC but i don't want to max it out so i'm waiting for my check to biuld up in my savings. so by that time it would be much more cheeper, since i'm also thinking of doing a SLI on the eVGA 7900 GT KO 250MB i'm planning to buy...

halutzparilla · August 18th, 2006

I know that this question is a bit off topic, but, i'm ganna ask it anyway...

since capper hasn't updated the water cooling thread,

which one of the water cooling out on the market best suited for the E6400 which won't be much of a burden on the budget...

i know the recommendation would be Swiftech H20-220, but asside from that....
