quick question realy.

is it possible to ask vadim to only OC ur CPU only, instead of CPU+VGA, sinse ocing VGA i think will make the pc too loud, and dont realy want super loud pc.

i will be getting most likely e8400+gtx9800 and antartic cooling+aus p5e X38 intell boad.

was wondering if onyl CPU ocing possible and if so, what speeds they probaly get with that spec. i hear e8400 can go 4.00 and stable.

hopefuly you pc jinkies be able to help

Tbh with the antartic they replace the standard cooler with a better/quieter one! So i reckon it will be quieter than stock anyhow Cool
My 8400 is running at 4.06 ghz with the premium watercooling (cpu/vga)
Go for it mate....you wont regret it!!

You could ask them overclock graphic card as well but keep the noise down that way you get the best of both worlds.

I would get the graphics overclocked as well. Vadim will rip off the stock fan and replace it with a much quieter one. It will be quieter overclocked than a standard card would be.

ok, as long as it quiet. what speed you recon you could get with maximus x38 boad+e8400 with antartic cooling in a ther armour case?

or is it pretty much random?

Every chip is slightly different, I would expect around the 4ghz mark though.
