[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="58" id="2606059"]DX is up at DA!! http://puterdudejim.deviantart.com/art/Venom-DX-162259188[/quote] I'm really diggin' the DX, Redneck! [e digicons]:beer:[/e] IMO, it compliments the windowblind beautifully. [e digicons]5*[/e] The presentation of your work is commendable and I have searched the web high and low for the wallpaper you used, but to no avail. I even did a reverse image search.

The most efficient way is to do it through IMPULSE. Then just to get the little nasties out... you can use hunter mode win REVO uninstaller (safe mode)

[quote]Me too...[/quote][quote]How exactly do you go about bumping it up[/quote] It's been a completely stress free option for me... and as long as you have adequate cooling (average/normal cooling), you should be "gellin".

This will bring you to the BIOS screen. On opening screen go

[quote]I believe you removed their version of Thermal Paste.[/quote] Correction for clarity, It is thermal paste. [quote]it had the consistency of silly putty, and was about 1/16-1/8 inch thick[/quote] Yeah, it usually does... and after a ton of heat, it will even harden.

[quote]I am thinking about doing some tinkering to bring my processor up from 2.66 to 3.2 but I am kinda nervous.[/quote] I understand your nervousness, but the overclock speeds you are looking forward to are easily reached with an I7 920. I own an EVGA X58 classified motherboard that will "dummy" overclock my I7 920 automatically to 3.35Ghz. Checking the settings of the dummy overclock afterwards, I found that the CPU voltage merely went from, 1.15v to 1.25v... which is still

[quote]I accidentally scraped off some blue putty like stuff off the bottom of it, where it sits on one of the chips.[/quote] I believe you removed their version of Thermal Paste. If that is the case, it is not reusable. You will need to clean both contact areas with a mild acetone (fingernail polish remover on a q-tip will suffice, and follow that up with some pure alcohol). The end result of the cleaning should not leave any residue from either "cleaner" s
