Just wondering - which motherboards/chipsets are the recently announced 64bit Xeons compatible with? Thank you.

Here's a picture of the upcoming Athlon 64-M mobile processor: http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/mobile/display/20030819125458.html And here's details about an upcoming A64M-based laptop from Arima: http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/mobile/display/20030804164057.html The mobile version of the A64 seems...

Found the following availability matrix of Microsoft software for 64-bit. It includes both Itanium and x64 software. http://blogs.msdn.com/draper/archive/2004/04/21/117517.aspx Yousuf Khan -- Humans: contact me at ykhan at rogers dot com Spambots: just send mail to above address ;-)

Building a computer from scratch. It'll be built for someone who'll use it for alot of things, but tilted in the 'gaming' direction. Should whether the processor is 64-bit or 32-bit matter? If not, when? If so, how so? In other words, should I go AMD or Intel? I understand AMD is slightly faster...

Intel's Pentium 4 600 series processors - The Tech Report - Page 1 http://techreport.com/reviews/2005q1/pentium4-600/index.x?pg=1 This particular page in the article is pretty interesting, describes all of the hoops Intel is having to jump through to get Pentium 4 to run coolly. There's no less...

I am wondering if anybody knows is the intel 6xx series in stores in europe?

Hello, Does the 64bit Intel CPUs suppurt also WinXP versions for 32 bit ? If so, what is the tradeoff of using a 32 bit operating system ? Thanks, Lior.

Hi, I am looking for documentation on 64bit Itanium Optimization Techniques. Are there any cheat sheets available? presentation slides? examples? Thanks in advance!

Hi! I wrote a C++ class for a 64bit fixed point numeric format, 32bit integral and 32bit fractional. I wrote addition, subtraction and multiplication operator routines (the latter in inline assembly). Now I need an assembly routine to inline to compute division, but I'm having many problems finding...

VR-Zone is showing a 775-pin Prescott processor: http://www.vr-zone.com/?i=308&s=1 Not sure what all of the pins are for. Yousuf Khan

Hi there, do you actually get 800 MHz on the front side bus or are you limited by the memory clock speed, i.e. DDR 400? Or is the 800 MHz only between the processor and the controllers (memory, north and south bridge)? Matt

Very simple question with I am sure a simple answer... I'm looking to upgrade my CPU. My i850 chipset board only has 400 mhz fsb. If I stick a chip in built for a 533 or 800 mhz fsb will it work ok? Clearly I won't get the the benefit of the higher-supported fsb speed, I'm just looking for a...

Dear all, I have gone through 80188XL ICU part I am pretty clear with master mode.But in slave mode i have the following queries: 1.Why this interrupt vector register is added?What is the use of making the last two bits of interrupt vector register as programmable,since to clear the in-service...

I heard that the 80286 had 20 bits in for each address in memory but an address bus of only 16 bits! How did I access a memory with this limitation?

Hi, Looking for what's out there in terms of built-in self-test C language code for an 8051 product. Code snippet pointers or even ideas on what would constitute a good BIT test for an 8051 product. Already have in mind, a RAM test. Any ideas on what else we can test for boot?

Hello, I want to get started on an 8051 project. I already know C. What I am looking for is an 8051 eval board that comes with a C compiler, flash burner, code debugger, etc... In other words, I want to develop some basic, generic 8051 code in C, compile, link, download it into eval board and then...

Can anyone point me at a reasonably detailed description of the workings of the 8080 DAA instruction? I've written an 8080 simulator but if I follow the details that I have found for DAA then it doesn't quite work as expected. If I make a very small change to the details (reading between the...
