Holidays

So my holidays have started a day early. Should be a good night tomorrow. Angus and I are planning on heading into town and going to Underground Arts. Then we'll probably head up to Imi's house and meet Jordan and whoever else is there. Drinks are to be had there apparently. Might be able to crash there, hope so, would make it better cause' we wouldn't have to go home early because of the bus.

I've been busy the past 2 days overclocking my CPU. I have an Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 which was 2.13ghz at stock. The multiplier is locked at 8x and the Bus speed was set to 267mhz. After bumping up the Bus speed a little bit I managed to get to 2.8ghz. Benched it for a while and then upped the Bus to 375mhz. Now it's on 3.0ghz and the DRAM Frequency is at 470mhz from 400mhz it was at stock. Benched it again and it is stable. This is using the stock Intel fan and it is at stock voltage. This is an average overclock for this CPU and I suspect I could bump up the speed to about 3.4ghz easily.


Gears Of War used to have slight stuttering problems at the start of levels. Now it's fine because of the overclock. I should also mention that at full stress the temperature only reaches about 60-65 degrees,which isn't too bad.
