anyone running 45nm procs yet? my new rig inside!

[an0nym0us1]

so i finally bit the bullet and went for a 45nm cpu, i decided to go with an E8400 (3.0/6m/1333) and got a new HDD, board & vid card for it. if anyone needs any help with intel systems feel free to PM me, i hate to see an enthusiast waste cash on junk parts. anyhow, here she is!

here are the system specs...
E8400 3.0@ 4.15ghz air cooled 462x9 1.4vCore
Scythe Infinity heatpipe CPU cooler, Arctic Silver Ceramique
Gigabyte G33M-DS2R mATX motherboard F7 bios
4x1gb G.Skill 2GBHZ, micron D9GMH DDR2-800 @ 924 4-4-4-12
74gb Raptor 16mb
eVGA 8800GT 512mb Superclocked

you just go into the source game and hit video stress test.

amd? what the heck is that?

Show me an Intel processor that can compare with the $85 5000+ X2 black edition. Show me something that compares with the Phenom which is under $200. Show me a better multi-GPU technology which scales better than CrossfireX. And last, think of an Intel monopoly.

Very nice, what temps are you getting at idle ? What were your temps at stock?

My E3110 arrived yesterday but when I went to get my MX-2 the tube was empty, no one in town stocks MX-2 so I had to order some online, I hope it gets here before the weekend.

On the subject of TIM, I ordered Tuniq TX-2, Arctic MX-2 and Noctua NT-H1 so I can judge which is best for myself instead of relying on reviews.
