You're all going to hate me:

DFI LanParty NF4 SLI-DR

1gig Muskin Redline XP4000 (@ DDR 500 2.5-3-3-5)

Inno3d GeForce 7800GTX

Hiper Type-R 580W Modular power supply

Themaltake Tsunami case in silver with side window (UV cathode for motherboard and power supply components)

2x WD Caviar 160Gig 8mb cache (going to be replaced with 2 SATAII Drives in October) RAID 0

1x LiteOn 52x32x52x DVD-ROM/CD-RW

1x Pioneer DVR-105 (To be replaced with a Plextor SATA DVD-Writer)

Asetek Vapochill Micro

Cant remember what the clock speed of the processor is at, i think its 2.5Ghz (250FSB x10), got the RAM running @ 3.4V (its rated to 3.6V, mental stuff). My hypertransport is set to 5x and is therefore running at 2500MT/s. The fan on the HSF barely turns at all (600rpm usually)

    • Well I've done a grand total of nothing, and it now clocks between 2010mhz and 1995mhz (stock is 1710mhz) and hovers around 80c, warmer than it used to, but tolerable clocks seem to have returned. Thanks for all the advice on this thread. Will review the evidence and make a choice.

    • I really wonder if this has to do with the built in VPN or "private DNS" of browsers that trip up legal requirements like cookie consent and Cloudflare (to avoid all the botnet attacks we get). And BTW some botnets still manage to get past Cloudflare, we are constantly having to tweak it to block malicious traffic that ultimately cause a DDoS.
