Differences between Thunderbird, Palomino, Barton ? by
liaM
It seems possible to purchase Atlon XPs at equal PR ratings
yet different types......
What's different about them, say for a processor with a rating
of 1800 ?
Oh yes.. what does the + sign after the 18OO signify ? What are
series 6 or 8 athlons ?

2000+ become 2600+ :) by
Sunbow
I had my XP2000+ runing at just over 2GHz till my psu overloaded. the 2000+
chip seems to remain stable well above stock settings. if you have a decent
hsf and psu why not see how for it will go? your ram will probably be the
breaking point as it will eventually run as DDR400.

Where can I get duct in the UK by

I am planning to use a 120mm blowhole in my case to direct cool
outside air onto my CPU Heatsink.
I also plan to take the existing 80mm Heatsink fan off and rely on the
blowhole fan to push air onto it.
Question is: where can I get flexible ducting to do the job? Staright

Adding RAM to NF7-S by
Bust Fresh
I currently have 2X256MB PC3500 Corsair XMS installed on my NF7-S.
I want to upgrade to 1GB RAM total. I only want to buy 1 additional 512MB
module.
Will 2X256 + 512 work in this config? I know I can fit 3 on there, but will
there be any conflicts?

Could this be a CPU bug? by
pass
Hello.
My computer is having this chronic problem which I believe is hardware
related. I've narrowed it down to either the CPU (Athlon Thunderbird 850
