I've been overclocking for a long time. I've always found it fun to get faster performance w/o spending any more $$$.
I've been happy with this rig but now my wife wants a pc and with the upcoming price break on X2 cpus I figure its time to bite the bullet. My current system is: (I have always...

Why overclock? by
Martik
To get an $158 X2 3800 to run safely at 2.4 a Zalman 9500 cooler at $60 may
be needed - total cost approx $220. If I can buy an X2 4400 with double the
cache for $234 wouldn't I be further ahead? What is the max overclock on a
3800 with stock fan?

Greetings
I have a XP 3200+(not certain on the revision) that is not being oc'd
yet. As it stand right now the cpu is hovering between 51-58c because
of the midwest heat wave we're having. In normal temp conditions the
cpu never gets pass 51c. According to AMD they state this cpu *could*

Cheap Dual Socket A motherboard? by
Garr
Having recently moved up to a A64 system, I've been left with a couple
of Mobile AthlonXP 2600+ spare. As I have only room for 2 systems (the
A64 and one of these mobile CPUS) in the house ATM one of these CPU is
going to waste so would like to possibly place both of these processors

Venom
Hi everybody.
An old fellow over the street from me was having problems with his computer
and I offered to help. To keep it short the problem is his CPU. I said to

Athlon 3200+ Temps by
Ian
An old chestnut I guess.
My Athlon 3200 just will not idle below 47c and loads up to 53c, no matter
what I do to my cooling. It now has a 120mm exhaust behind it, another
120 pulling in at the case front,
there's even an 80mm intake on the case side-panel and a dual-fan PSU.
System temp,...
