No mate but when I retire I am going to do one more major build as well as a present for my gardener mate who doesn't have a lot of dough and is pretty crippled up with arthritis. I shall use the same gear but with an i7 3770K if I can get the board as Z77's out here from my supplier are less than eight choices
I have been watching the Haswell saga but like a TV soapy eh? I couldn't put up with all that nonsense.
Yes mate sure did and the tester came up no slouch either seeing it has only DDR2 RAM.
Thing is that flipping EVO I got i think is a lemon mate - well you know what I mean so I am going to give it one more wipe a clone and see what happens but I know the thing stopped the fist time with what it called a broken pipe?? To be brutally honest it never seemed as fast as the straight 840 which is back in of course and like a rocket.
Yeah, DDR2 can give you a decent score if overclocked, see my WEI that I posted some days ago.
But, when it comes to actually pushing data around, DDR2 just ain't all that anymore.
