Post I'm getting bored, need to upgrade...

I'm so disapointed I can't get anything more out of this 900, it seems to top out at 1050, most of you guys said its probably the chip max..maybe its the user..hehe, I'm wondering If I should swap the chip with a buddy and try to pick up something else..any ideas??..this is such a bad addiction, I want to see my fop38 work its but off to cool something damnit....

Counseling? I thought that's what this forum was for!

But really, if you DIDN'T want to overclock, then I might recommend counseling.

Ahhh.. one of those servers... We dedicated a couple of computers to "free file sharing" at work. And of course, when stuff gets shared at work, I take it home to uhhhh, try it on a limited basis to see if I like it or not before I decide to go out and buy it.

Yeah, thats it... hence 71GB.
