I just got myself a 2700+ and was wondering how you could tell the difference between a TBred A or B core? I know it is easier to overclock with a B core and wanted to find out how to go about with it. Thanks. Eric B.

I have just built a system with a MSI k7n2g ilsr mainboard with an XP 2600+. CPU temperature shows between 55C and 59C. Is this normal? The cpu was boxed and uses the standard amd cooler and fan. Thanks in advance. Rob

I have a Vantec AeroFlow C7040 and it is quiet BUT that is very subjective to the room you are in and also case fans etc in your case. If you have no case fans and the cpu cooler is the only fan in there the it may be too loud for you. If you are looking for an ultra quiet cooler for the likes of...

Hi, I currently have a Soyo DUP+ KT400 yada-yada, with a 2200+ stuck on it. I'm running Corsair XMS 512 3200 RAM and twin WDC 80GB Drives in RAID 0. My problem: Damn thing is slow. Not 80486 slow, but I feel that this system should have more potential. Sisoft laughs at me and my benchmarks are WAY...

I changed my CPU Speed setting in my BIOS from 100/100 to 133/133. After changing it, I ran that SiSoft Sandra utilty and it said my CPU speed had increased from 1.0 GHZ to 1.47 GHZ...........!!!! Amazing. My CPU is an AMD Athlon XP 1100 by the way. Then, 2 days later, I decided to run it again...

I'm running the A7N8x Deluxe MB, 2200xp pro and 512mb pc3200 Samsung RAM with a FSB of 200MHZ. Seems to work fine and have had no problems so far. With a second case fan and just the standard cpu fan, my system hardly ever reaches past 44C. What have others with similar hardware config got...

OK I know the thread's out of date but I've been away - I would suggest looking at something with the NForce2 chipset, it really is excellent, stable and has all the gadgets you could ask for. There's a new Ultra 400 version which is factory-rated for 200Mhz FSB (or 400 in marketing-speak), and I...
