look what arived a day before christmas eve!
all that to go with:
the 160GB wd blue is my new boot drive, and xfiring 2 4670's.
Phenom II x2 555 and G. Skill Ripjaw 1333 RAM (8-8-8-21 timings)
here's it before
my sexy x600, going into my HTPC with my old P4 550 once i get some DDR2 RAM
and here it is after everything
such a sexy case
unlocked the 2 hidden cores in the Phenom II x2 555, making it a Phenom II x4 b55 @ 3.4GHz. runs at 28C idle and 40C load with prime 95 running(had to make sure the cores are stable, and they are) running at 1.44 corevolt. i got the ASRock 870 Extreme AM3 mobo because of the dual PCIe slots and the one button unlocking tool. it also has support for six core phenoms, which might come in handy later because those are so cheap. top 4670 runs at 38C idle and about 60C under load, and the bottom one is only 2 degrees cooler. ive had no problems with 10.12 drivers and crossfire is working damn well with them.
overall, im damn happy, and i can play BFBC2 at a solid 60-80 FPS on medium.
