Loading ...Fed Up with AMD
olymat22
Sorry I haven’t posted for a while, been dead busy at school. As you can see by the title, we are fed up with AMD. We have decided to go Intel. We have bought an G0 stepping Core 2 Quad Q6600 and an Asus Striker Extreme from 3B systems in Nelson (we went to there shop). This rig will be way faster, plus it will be more future-proof. But when we got home, and tried to put the thermal grease on the CPU, disaster struck. We spilled the grease over the heatspreader and onto the die. We managed to get it all off, but it was a close shave. It just says, use your common sense, not the manual (it said to put it on the CPU, not the heatsink, which is more logical). After that, we got up to putting the drives in, but we remebered that they wouldn’t open last time. We got 2 more, an Asus with Lightscribe and SATA, and a NEC with SATA. They should come on monday.
