Hi all, I just bought an Athlon XP 2500+ (Barton) for my KG7-RAID. Since my RAM is not really good, I decided to keep the 133 MHz FSB (or few MHz more), and raise the CPU multiplier instead. The CPU comes with L1 unlocked, and L3 says 11.0x is the default multiplier, thus the range I can manually...

Well - I don't know...maybe - I know I didn't until I started thinking about what people say about overclocking and how it causes damage, no matter how much or how little...Got that from ThunDA's AMD Overclocking Guide In my case, my system is actually powered down about 80% of the time...

I’m new to overclocking and I’m looking for some help Overclocking a Pentium III 933Mhz with 133 FSB from a gutted Gateway system. I cant seem to change the FSB from BIOS, do I need to Clear the Real Time Clock to do so? The Tech at my local shop said I might not be able to OC it BECAUSE it is a...

I am about to switch from AMD to Intel's Core 2 Duo. What is the best motherboard for this chip? I really want to buy Asus but if you have other ideas please tell me.

how do you tell if the cpu is throttling? at the moment i have it set to 50% in BIOS (but only because this was the default). mb is P4P800-s, cpu is P4 2.4C @ 3.0GHz. tia!

does anyone know of a site showing comparisons for the various SATA disks on the market? specifically, i'm looking for the quietest 80-120GB model. obvously, good performance would be a bonus tia

you could try a straight boot at 133MHz fsb to yield 1.2Ghz clock speed. if it won't boot, you could try upping the voltage a little at a time (increments of 0.05V) until it POSTs. don't go above ~1.9V, as the extra signal strength gets muddied by extra heat produced at this voltage...

I was overclocking an old Celeron 400 MHz processor the other day and was having great success as I had pushed it to over 7 GHz when all of a sudden, somewhere around the 7.15 GHz range, the processor starting shaking terribly. I quickly tried to turn off the computer and unplug the power supply,...

I've gone to Windows 7 build 7000 on my E8400@ 3.6Ghz Raptor RAID0 system and I'm very impresssed (this is what Vista should have been, but that's another rant) it doesn't seem to load balance programs any better than previous iterations of Windows. In this respect it's not materially improved...
