My Workstation at Home [UPDATED]

Updated with some other photos for my first overclocking attempt![UPDATE] Recently, I tried to overclock my processor. for those who don't understand anything about overclock, here's a rather rough explanation for it
In a nutshell, the term is used to describe running a component at a higher speed than its specification in an attempt to increase performance. Various computer components can be overclocked, including the processor, memory, and graphics card. And the degree of overclocking can include anything from simply procuring small gains from an inexpensive component all the way to seeking a level of performance way beyond what could even be purchased at that point in time.
This BE processor of mine can be overclocked quite easily as its multiplier is unlocked. I got myself a 3rd party CPU cooler from Cooler Master, Hyper TX-3 so that it can help to cool down my CPU while i am trying to push its limit =P.

I started pushing the CPU core frequency from 2.8GHz to 3.3GHz, with an increment of 0.1GHz each time.
I couldnt pass the stability test after 3.3Ghz...so I added a little bit of CPU Vcore. I stopped my attempt at 3.4Ghz as I realised the CPU temp is going to reach 50C when it is fully loaded (with prime95 torture test).
I really had fun doing stuff like this..going to try it again when I have rested enough.
bubye!

Interesting security features !

Recently, I discovered that our Malaysian Identity Card AKA MyKad has some rather entertaining security features.
As you can see from the picture, there is another hidden photo of mine (Young Jian Yi huh, not atlee?!).It can only be seen under the illumination of ultra-violet light from a money detector. ( I lend it from my mum's office..lol )
btw, I have blurred part of my IC number, its not supposed to be exposed =P

Actually there are also some nice things to see from our glorious Malaysian Ringgit, although its exchange rate is dropping w.r.t singapore dollars T_T
but, at least we can rest assured that a rm50 note still has a higher value than a 10SGD note...LOL
thats all from atlee =)

Moving on,let's get addicted to some addictive yet simple..n boring FACEBOOK social games!!!
my ALIEN pet, QIQI from pet society is posing in her new METALLIC house!!!

WELL, I was always told that Temerloh has nothing interesting to visit. ahha, I can prove you wrong now !
the new T.E.M.E.R.L.O.H "hollywood" sign has just been set up a few months ago across Sungai Semantan. The night scenery there is truly breathtaking !!!
