I've got an 8RDA+ system that was running fine early today. (It is not overclocked, but I'm thinking overclockers may have some insights too, hence the cross post.) It was left on while people left the room. When they came back a few hours later it was dead. Now it won't even POST. History: ~3...

Hi: I have an Opty running at 2.8 GHz with 4 GBs of dual channel RAM. I saw some boards like Gigabyte and Epox support up to 16 GBs of RAM. However, finding a stick of 4 GB of DDR2 seems to be a bit difficult. I was curious to see if anybody has exceeded 4 GBs on their systems and has any...

A7V133 BIOS REV 1009, Athlon Thunderbird 1.33 GHz I swapped the original 900 MHz Duron with what was supposed to be a 1.33 GHz Athlon Thunderbird. When I ran the computer the processor showed up as a 1000 MHz Athlon. The board is configured to be jumperless.

Why do people reply to SPAM in the group?

I had an Opteron 144 overclocked to 2.5GHz (4x DDR sticks, 2.6GHz with 2 sticks) so I checked out a few upgrade options to improve my 939 system. The Opteron was so easy once I figured out how to manipulate the Gigabyte Triton K8N - SLi mobo. Some software suggested that my HD2900XT would be...

Hello, Newbie here. I've been told that having to much temperature in the CPU could be very bad. I've also been told that between 45-50° was good T°. Well, BIOS monitoring shows my CPU at 51-52°C.

I have not dumped the idea of getting AMD in my notebook just yet because I'm still confused about all the processors they make. You know one of the systems I am interested in is the Compaq Presario 3000 series line. One of those lines in the 3000Z which features the processor from AMD. OK, go...

I'm about to upgrade my friend's 486sx 25 computer with the very modern 5x86 133 CPU. Since I've heard about good overclockability of 5x86s , I was wondering if anyone here had any experience in that matter. Don't laugh - CAN you double the speed of YOUR system for 3 USD? ;-)

What's the best heatsink for an Athlon XP 3200. Not looking to spend a fortune but my idle temps of around 55 degrees C are a little on the high side and I'd like to bring em down a bit. Thanks, Steve

Does the mobile barton have any performance enhancements over the regular bartons --aside from lower power consumption? What I mean by this is that at the same clock speed is a Mobile Barton any faster than a regular Barton? AMD doesn't seem to have any data sheets on the mobile bartons that I can...

I hope this is not too much of a dumb Q, but is there a way to find out if BOTH cores of a CPU are working properly, correctly, or even @ all? I am running a Black Ed. 6400+ (NEVER clocked or any other 'teasings' done) w/ a AC Freezer 64 Pro sitting atop it. It is just my PC seems way to slow...

Hi all, I'm very confused as to which Athlon XP 2400+ my Asus A7V333 (PCB rev 1.1) can handle. Looking at the Asus site, I can only have the (Model 8?) Thoroughbred, as the Thornton is for the PCB rev 2.0 version A7V333 only. But I heard whisperings that it *could* actually take the Thornton but...
