Hey there, I'm relativly new to this, and was asking if you guys thought what I've achieved so far is safe to continue to run without really damaging anything (I know there is always a possibility). I've got an ASUS KT400 motherboard. Duron 1800 Processor Applebred Core Kingston PC2100 Valueram.

I think the AMIGA is still much better with its superior 68000 CPU , better than all the modern PC crap which only crashes and attracts thousands of dangerous virus programs.

Don't know if I'm totally off base here, but I was just installing a new processor, and I noticed the pin array on the back of the cpu was contaminated with bits of the black anti static foam they ship the processors in. A rather remarkable amount too. This was an OEM AMD64. I'd hope the stuff was...

I know the AMD Athlon XP 1800+ is supposed to run at 1533MHz, but the one I got only wants to run at 1150. My MSI motherboard (K7T Turbo) is supposed to be compatible with this CPU (and I do have the latest BIOS). The CPU itself is marked AX1800DMT3C and doesn't look to have been altered to my...

Im wanting to buy a watercooling Kit for my CPU and also the Northbridge. Does anyone have any reccomandations on a good Kit that I could buy? not wanting to buy the parts seperately though just as a whole kit. thanks

i want to use 2 512mb stick on my dual channel motherboard.(1 from crucial and 1 from kingston). I want to know if they will perform better or worse than if i use 2 memory from the same maker? thx for reading this

Even with silver paste & a ¼" thick h-sink ( of Jetway V266B ) & 8cm fan cooled, @133.9mhz fsb ( CL 2 / 3 ) with 2 pc150 dimms,* will jam in intensive usage ( dvd fast fwd, ram stress test ) in 29°C air, yet no tmperature sensor is built in. Users in warm climate beware, can use BCM...

Hi. I can buy a XP3000 400fsb for about $150, but a XP2600 333fsb for about $80. In this case, is it possible to OC the XP2600 to match the XP3000 400mhz speed and thereby save about $75??? Both CPU are 2.1ghz. Thank you for your time. C

Hi folks, I have a new MicroFin CPU cooler XP2100+. Could I also use that with a XP2400+ processor?. Would it be suitable? Thanks, scott

Hi folks, I was curious as to the accuracy of temp readings using either the bios (SoftMenu on my KT7) or SisoftSandra. When I enter SoftMenu, I usually get a higher reading than when I use Sandra. It also seems that as I look in SoftMenu...it tends to increase the longer I stay in there. Whats...

Well, fairly huge anyway. In a cpu/bus-bound game like Quake3, 30% faster. http://www.techreport.com/reviews/2004q2/nforce3-geforcefx/index.x?pg=1 I would guess the performance gap between the next-generation nvidia & ati cards on this same chipset in these types of games (which there should...

Hi, I was totally confused looking at the AMD model line for 32 bit the other day. Different front side buses and different cpu cache sizes. Of course the famous amd rating system is confusing to me at least. Does anyone know a site that has ratings for the best bang for the buck amd 32 bit...

I have been trying to overclock my Barton 2800+ but can't get anyware. Keep geting that silly voice on my motherboard saying System failure due to cpu overclock. Here are my specs: ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe (Latest Bios) 2 x 512meg DDR 3200 (Crucial) Memory 2800+ Barton

I'm fairly new to the overclocking thing, so please bear with me if I ask something that has been discussed here recently. I just found this group yesterday. Anyway, I am looking at using 2 Mobile XP 2500 Bartons in my motherboard, but I want to make sure I get the right ones. I know that some of...

http://www.legitreviews.com/Reviews/reg_hyperx_2.shtml The Athlon 64 FX 51 with dual channel PC3200 doesn't score remarkably well on the UNbuffered Sandra memory test -- e.g. compared to a P4 with similar dual-channel PC3200 DDR. Why? Is the Athlon 64 memory interface throttled to a lower total...

I received my 2500 xp-m yesterday and am already pretty amazed about it's capabilities. Still in the proces of fine tuning but one question came up, this is a mobile processor which has the Powernow feature. My pc is 24/7 on and it would simply be fantastic if this technology could lower my voltage...

I have an option on my NF7-S to overclock the 2500 barton in here to 3200+. 11x200. when i do that, it boots but right before windows begins to load, it resets or goes to the F8 screen. what else do i need to consider? fsb on mobo is 400, ram(ONE STICK in third slot) is showing as pc3200(2-3-3-5),...
