By tomorrow the last of my components will arive and I'll start building but I got a few quick Qs:
1/ Should I wear in the hardware before overclocking the GPU and CPU?
2/ I got Antec Silver Thermal Compound but my heatsink came with some Compound, do I apply silver to both my CPU and bottom of the heatsink or just use silver on my CPU?
3/ I've got a PCI Fan Exhaust, where should I place it, at the bottom of the case or under my GPU? Which I hope to overclock to ultra speeds.
4/ Where do I put my dual channel RAM on my Lanparty? It listed the slots as 1 and 2 at the top what's furthest away from the CPU, but I thought closest to the CPU the better?
5/ Anyone know of any good guides on not the actual building but the set up of the BIO, OS, Graphics, Drivers etc and which order to do em in.
6/ Is using a cracked XP professionial any good? I got home XP from my parents workplace (unopened) But I do like Word and thinking of then installing a cracked version to replace home edition.
