Okay, my current setup: Athlon XP 2400+ retail running at 2240 (reads as a 2600+) Shuttle AN35N m/b 2x512Mb PC2100 sticks of ram (not matched) at 140Mhz on the bus Connect3D 9600 Pro 128Mb (overclocked core - 490/memory - 702) Samsung SP1203N 120Gb ATA133 HD LG 52/24/52 CD-R Windows XP Pro sp1

Lets wait and see how the Athlon 64 performs after a few mother board manufacturers produce boards and tweak them. I am tired of hearing people saying they are going to Intel because they are so much better. These same people better hope AMD doesn't go away or we will all be paying twice as much...

Hi all, I just got to the stage where I am 100% satisfied that my system is working great at stock settings. I have tested the memory timings, and I have tested my FSB above 200MHz. Now I am working on overclocking my cpu. When I first switched up to 11 x 200MHz from default 2500+ all I did to...

Time to replace my rig. I've been reading that 1700 DLT3C's are good overclockers, but no-one in the UK appears to stock them. Anybody know where I can get hold of one (1800 is even better). TIA Q

seeing mention of this tool to test stability, and cant find a link to it. Whats it do and where do I get it TIA Helinut

Hi: want to get a motherboard for pentium 4 2.6GHz 800FSB. would like to have either ata or sata raid with LAN. would like to know which is the most stable motherboard out there. thank you

New chip shows up and it's all "my daddy can beat up your daddy" I can't afford one! But in the future they will become lower priced, then. Imma get one ! I was watching screen savers on TV I laughed when I saw the chart showing AMD faster than Pentium. I was thinking woaaaaaaa, am glad I dont...

Trying to decide if I should just buy the over clocking kit with the conductive greese and the gap filling liquids. Is there an easier way. Thanks -misno --

looking to upgrade and am trying to find a new board that will do 200mhz fsb (400ddr) stable, browsed anandtech and they had a roundup of 6 nforce2 boards and couldnt get any to 200mhz, i dont want to have to use a kt600 chipset cause of the whole pci/agp divider thing.. ill be attempting to get a...

Is this what I think it is? Is it me or a typo? http://www.tomshardware.com/cpu/20030923/athlon_64-46.html . P4 is slower than the amd64 but wins by19.6%?

I can overclock the FSB to 140 stable. What would that make the CPU speed ?? I think the Chip is locked i think, are 2400's locked or unlocked ? Thanks.

Hello I just got finished putting together a new system: A7N8X Deluxe 1 Gig Corsair XMS pc3200 (2/512 matched pairs) 2500 XP+ Abit Ti 4200 (2) WD 40 Gig With the Asus dongle/hooked up to the SATA , I want them to be in raid 0. (1) 48x24x48 cd/rw drive.

I run into a lot of people that hate AMD for whatever reason, most because AMD did them wrong years ago with a k6 or something silly.. Now the thing that really gets me is why doesn't AMD become a marketting firm? I mean I never see any AMD advertisements anywhere, but everyone knows the...

Installed a new HSF application on my system tonite. found 2 capacitors leaking on the mobo, bulging on top as if they're ready to pop (Gigabyte 7VTXE). So far it dont look as if they've dripped any dielectric onto the cards below yet but getting close. no apparent problems as of now but for those...

Should I set my DDR 3200 memory to 333 to match my board, or leave it at 400 ? What benefits will I see running it slower TIA
