Well I ordered my Dell 1705, Specs are in my sig, Paid 1200.00 USD for it,

Been scanning this board, so a few comments and questions

Comment - I will be able to upgrade to the Duo CPU later Right ?

Question - Is the mod for upgrading the heatsink with thermal paste a good ideal any effect on warranty?

Question - Anyone figure out if the 7800 unused pipelines can be unlocked

Question - What the best Tools to use for OC the 7800?


Looking forward to March 1st when it arrives

Cheers
Dave

1 - Dont know much about this, but I would think not.
2- It's a good idea because it actually DOES make a change in the heat produced from the machine. Warranty, they really wont check, they'd have to open it up and be really smart enough to figure out that that's a different thermal cooling agent thingy.
3- No, they cannot. I'm pretty sure they're laser etched.

Well Today I ordered 2 gig of 533 Mhz ram Priced at $ 160.00 USD
Upgraded to a 80 gig 7200 Sata HD priced at 175.00 USD

Selling old 1 Gig (2 x 512)memory and 60 Gig 5400 SATA drive on Ebay and recoup a good portion if the upgrade costs back

I been watching a Dual Core processor on ebay, one at 180 USD the other at 284 USD.
