I've just installed MSI Core Center Pro, to try and check my CPU temp from within windows. Any other program I've tried reports CPU tems of 185 C....obviously wrong. Core center reports a CPU temp of 33C and system temp of 41C, which sounds to me like the wrong way round??? Can anyone recoomend a...

I currently have my 2100+ oc'd to 2.17g. Would an overclocked 2500+ be worth the upgrade?

Can anyone tell me the difference? The SL is 7 Euro more expensive, but is not listed on the Abit site. Thanx

Have you guys notice any difference in performance among the OEM and retail ADM64 CPUs?

I have an NF7-S v2.0, 9700pro, 2500+(1.8) oc'd to 3200+(2.2), 500w ps, XP Pro. There are a few games like MOH, and Call of Duty that are freazing up.

I have an Athlon XP 2400+ OC'd to 2.26GHz. (FSB bumped just a little to 137MHz or 274MHz) The multiplier is at 16.5. The VCORE is at 1.7. 'Big Mutha Truckers' will barely run on my computer. It's really slow loading between screens. When I freshly installed XP, I tried putting the game...

Hi Forget the word, begins with G, with AMDs i read you had to install something for the mobo to make the gfx card work, i knock up old puters from bits and had trouble with 2. does anyone know what im on about? thanks!

Am building a system using an A7N8X-X mobo, 512 mb Corsair XMS, Athlon XP 3000. I am considering a Volcano 9 with the ducting mod, can get one for $19.00 on eBay. Water cooling is out of the question, as it looks like it would cost 8-10 times as much. Will only overclock it to the limit of air...

Hello, I need some help restoring my AMD Athlon to its original state after being (I think) overclocked/tampered with by its former user. These are my processor specs: A1100AMS3B ASHHA013OUPGW 96774450138 (C)1999

Hi. I can buy a XP3000 400fsb for about $150, but a XP2600 333fsb for about $80. In this case, is it possible to OC the XP2600 to match the XP3000 400mhz speed and thereby save about $75??? Both CPU are 2.1ghz. Thank you for your time. C

Hi all, I have the opportunity to pick up an Asus A7N8X Deluxe rev 1.04 for next to nothing. I know it's an older board, but newer than my MSI K7T Turbo LE Question is, What am I going to run up against with the Asus board? I've already Googled and see a need to update the bios. What else?
