Okay, so this guy on another forum tells me that he's running a Core i7 920 @ 4Ghz and his temps are 35c idle and 45c load...on AIR. My reply was -

So, tell me, am I wrong?

Re: I'm calling B.S.
If he had something like a 45nm Core 2 Duo/Quad or Core 2 Extreme then I would believe it, but with a memory controller on board the i7, I think it's impossible to get that low a temperature on air at 4ghz.
I'm with you on this.

Re: I'm calling B.S.
Like I read someone else said on another forum, perhaps if he has the absolute best air cooler and fans up the hizzy, and has lapped his cpu...but still unlikely.
Why do people lie about crap like that? I guess they think the person on the other end won't know what they're talking about but it's hard to fool someone who knows you're full of it.

Re: I'm calling B.S.
If he posts screenshots, link me to them and ill analyse them in photoshop. quite easy normally to spot a doctored bit of work (with a good eye and some knowledge).

Re: I'm calling B.S.
Just don't let it bother you. Idiots like him need to lengthen their e-penises somehow. They're making up for the disappointment they have in their pants.

Re: I'm calling B.S.
Its why I like DH, you don't get the epenis wavers so much, just genuine high overclocks or cool systems from the people here.
Well apart from judas, he is a bit of a nutter (in a nice way!).

Re: I'm calling B.S.

Re: I'm calling B.S.
depends on whether you want to preserve them or keep them alive, LOL sorry CDs I meant Southern Californians ![]() I think as an engineering problem, air cooling has finite limitations but is it entirely impossible? As Zardon mentioned earlier, I would like to see it, and then I might only believe it if I saw the specs, setup. And then, and if I saw the tests, etc. I havent visited the web page because like all fantastic claims, they are usually crap. ![]() Unless your Scottish, then I might believe you. ![]()

Re: I'm calling B.S.
I dont have a problem, as I mentioned before, I am rather tolerant of eccentrics, and Southern California has alot of the them, in fact probably most of them. Its the Granola Bowl analogy really. Where would you look for the most fruits nuts or flakes? Los Angeles or a bowl of Granola
