Default Re: Overclocking a OEM Dell

so my hard drives are going to take a ---- beacause they are at an angle? dont think so. they mount them in servers are verticle or horizontal angles so I think my 2 HD's that have been running like that for about 2 years are going to be just fine.

and maybe E-bola didn't read that post I got about .5gig out of it, not "a few megahertz" Haven't tried yet but I bet I could rip a DVD like 10-15 minutes faster now.

I was just looking for a little help with why my bios drops my sata drives. My bios is up to date I believe. I don't guess anyone knows anything about OEM MB's or PLL's?

too funny I was waiting for ---- about the fan in there at a fucked up angle or it being held in with a twist tie but the HD's! lol.

Your Dell BIOS, or the company that manufactured your motherboard for Dell's BIOS?

Well my Dell Bios, but you are hitting on the same thing I have been debating. If I can find out who realy made the board (asus prints them, and sells to Dell or whatever) then maybe I can re-flash the Bios with per se, asus's bios. But Im still not sure if thats going to solve my problem. I understand the Bios is locked but is the chipset locked as well? In other words if I get a bios on it that works and is unlocked I'm afriad I still wont be able to change the multiplyer

I'm stumped. :1

Dude, both OEM motherboard equivalent and chipset Q's are an easy search of one of the overclocking forums. Get your search on homey.

Yeah I thought about it afterwards but you can get them off the net all day anyway so ---- it. I don't think I can get a MB with sata 800 or better FSB 478 socket DDR 400 Ram Dual channel can I? I'll have to chekc on that cause I might just say ---- it and do that.

Regarding the DUDE YOU'RE GETTING A DELL guy,

In February 2005, Curtis played a significant role, Christian, in an off-Broadway 16-show production of John Fisher's comedy Joy, formerly titled The Joy of Gay Sex.
