The Hushed Casket was founded in 2002 shortly after the launch of the XBOX console. Today the Hushed Casket is a thriving community of gamers, playing together and publishing news and stories that have appeared in major media properties like Newsweek, G4TV, USA Today, and Penny Arcade. Some game developers have even referenced our guides and news to support their gamers. We don't play Halo. We LAN Halo.

Unseal the hushed casket of my soul...

Bought: AMD Dual Core 2.6GHz CPU, 65nm

Yesterday, my new chip arrived at my house via UPS. Today, it is plugged into my mobo's CPU socket. Man, is it fast, and SO much cooler (65nm vs. the 90nm chip I had in there before). My CPU temps now idle at 15C (amazing!), as opposed to the 27C (which was still good) at stock speeds. I am going to overclock it, and see how far upwards of 3.0GHz it will go. If only my mobo would let me overclock my memory... :(

Anyone want to buy my old chip? It is an AMD Athlon 64 x2 4200+, 2.2GHz. It has only been mildly and briefly overclocked, and even then has never reached temps above 50C. The heatsink/fan comes with it. If you know someone who's in the market, let me know. Right now it's on Craigslist. If noone buys it soon, it will be listed on the old trusty eBay seller account.
