I o/c-ed my nVidia GeForce2 MX 200 (PCI) vid card with nVidia's "hidden" overclocking feature (the registry hack trick) from 175 to 280 MHz engine, 334 to 393 MHz memory. Even one megahertz higher and the screen either flickers or some parts turn fuchsia. The problem is that another program that...

I just built this machine and with a little help from past posts I've been able to OC it to 2.8 very stable with the settings below. 1. FSB = 234 2. Dram Ratio = 3:2 3. Dram Timing = 2-5-2-2 4. CPU voltage = default - 1.5 5. CPU temp = 48 degrees - stock heat sink/fan When I boosted just the FSB...

I'm in the UK and i'm currently looking at purchasing A MSI 875P NEO-FIS2R online, I only know of Dabs Online but they're offline atm. I was wondering if anyone can give me some info on other online place in which I can find this mobo, the cheapest i've found so far is just over £160. In...

ok, so, my vid card is really degrading, should I keep uping the clock speed to try to maintain a good framerate and run it into the ground or would it be better off if I just left it alone and let it die at its current state? should I remove my overclocking? if I do that i get around 15 fps. Im...

I have been building my own pc for awhile, but never oc'ed. Recently I wanted to upgrade to the popular P4 2.4c setup and hope to get a decent oc system off it. Can anyone recommand a mobo that allows oc out of the box. Also, what brand/speed of ram would be needed for maximum potential for 2.4c? I...

Exactly what motherboard do you mean? Don't you mean the MSI 875P NEO FIS2R? And be sure not to skimp on the sound system and monitor. Phil Weldon, "Captain Sensible" wrote in message ... Ok, I know I posted a...

I suspect the BIOS "upgrade" is the source of your problems. Why not go back to the old BIOS and see? I'm running a 2.8 800FSB on an ASUS P4P Deluxe (1007 BIOS), OCZ PC3700 memory, Win2k SP4 and my system runs best at 240 FSB and memory divider 4:5. Running the memory in sync at slower FSB does...

Been hearing a lot of talk that Intel is taking off the Gloves in light of AMDs increase in the market, and plans on a possible early release for Christmas of a P5Ghz limited edition to answer AMDs challenges. There isn't anything on their site, is this a rumor? Or is there any truth to it?...

Hi, I've got a new Abit IC7 and have managed to overclock my 2.4C to 3.2Ghz with a fsb of 275 and PC3500 RAM running at 220 on a 5:4 ratio. Sounds like a perfectly good setup. However, some will have you believe that the performance boosting PAT function of the Canterwood chipset will only operate...

Hi! Has anyone done that? Tried google and rage3d.com, but no luck :( -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Regards,

Hi all, I just got a good deal on a Gigabyte GA-8PE800 PRO with the Intel 845PE chipset. This motherboard supports Hyper Threading and has FSB/Volt. ajustments which include an FSB upto 355Mhz. I see on the Gigabyte website that they have a BIOS update which includes support for DDR400. I want...

Hi folks, Just a quick question... I have a real good heatsink & fan combo from my Socket A days. Now have an Asus P4P800 with 478 Intel CPU socket. Would like to know if anyone has a link to a device that would allow me to use this big block of copper on my current CPU. If I remember correctly...

I've overclocked a couple of Abit machines before but I'm not sure where to start with this one that I've just put together. I'm hoping for 3.0ghz but I ran out of money for the graphics card and I hope that won't kill my chances. Below is what I'm working with. 1. Abit IC7-G MB 2. 2.4c pent 4...

"Lane Lewis" intrigued me with a story ... Not recommended for a server you could get a couple of 1.4 gigs but at 400 USD it might be better to save for a Xeon. Server ? Huh? Nope that's just my regular machine..

how do i do it?

Hello all, I am planning my next upgrade to be a P4 2.4C and ABIT IS7. Of course the first thing I am going to do is overclock the sh@# out of it and I am looking at different types of memory. Does anyone here have any experience with this...
