Do you guys remember, how it was a big deal to source even a third party cooler ?
I still remember how all of us were drooling when Baatli got those awesome Patriot DDR1 Ram kit based on Samsung TCCD.

Aah those good ol days !

I remember thoe TCCDs and TCC5s! Then there were those UCCC(which I ended up buying from Bunnysoi) which could do high speeds but at looser latencies.

The AMD 64 times were the best. Third party coolers were non existent at that time. TR XP-90 and XP-120 were the best and most guys around here had an XP-90.

I remember you and Deejay basically setting the benchmark and then baatli joining in the fun. Poor people(real poor, not Amey poor) like us would have to be content with 2.45 ghz on a CBBId while you and Deejay would be hitting 2.7-2.8 with ease and trying for 3 ghz.

What happened to deejay anyway?

What i said implied you being quite lucky now and busy because of that.
Too many birds and busy ensuring they don't sit on the same branch.

Don't forget funkymonkey/Shripad.
He got the first two 0517 3000+ chips, esp in Mumbai.
I bought Darky's 2.9G chip- still works ;like a dream after having used it for testing dozens of mobos- still use it once in a while.
3000+/opty 144 or 146/opty165/X2 3800, DFI nF4, D43/TCCD/UCCC, 6600GT/6800GT/x800xl/x800xt pe/x800gto2/1900XT- what fun esp as almost everyone was on the same latest platform and everyone was in it for the pure thrill of OCing than competition.
rig gallery is down but i still remember the comment when i wasnt OCing the 0517 for lack of good memory- some almost said " 0517 and not OCed-die n00bie die"

Oh yes!! The 0517 chips and Funkymonkey(Shripad sucks! ). Even Quaddy was totally involved in the Oc'ing. He also bought a 3000+ with the intention of oc'ing the hell out of it. And the craze for DFI mobos was awesome!

The MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum was the first overclocker's board. Then it was the Asus A8N-E and A8N SLI Deluxe and premium. Then the DFIs came in for some lucky people!

^ Me me! I first had the A64 3000+, then the Opteron 146, DFI Lanparty Ultra-D, and some sick OCZ kit with golden heatsinks I bought from Funky.

I still remember jumping up when I clocked a 10.xx time on Super Pi 1M to top the leaderboard only for some bastids to buy C2Ds and ruin my wet dreams

10.xx on an A64?
You sure.
Even now AMD has a tough time doing 10.xy secs Pi 1M, even sub-zero iirc.

Not just intent; he had managed 2.93Ghz on air iirc.
He didn't find a 0517- got a so-so one.
Then swapped it with a 0517 DPMW iirc; original seller didn't even know.
His chip still lives too afaik, no rma ever. Good cooling and good psu mandatory- hope the newbies realise that.
