I'm sure I've been discriminated against cuz I'm white, but you don't see me bitching. Anytime any minority (which collectivley probably is majority) is passed up for a job or screws something up it is always discrimination. Good ruling on this case.... "Ed" wrote in...

so far ive tried: 13x183 v1.975 YES 15x166 v 1.975 NO 13x185 v1.975 NO am i safe to raise the vcore higher? should i select "benchmarking" in my bios? my temps are 55c in bios for core after playing gta3 for about 15 min. but winbond was giving my temps of 42cpu and 42 system.

There is now a newsgroup for the X86_64 cpu's (Athlon 64,FX,Opteron). alt.comp.hardware.amd.x86-64 You will probably have to ask your news server admin to add it. I've had no luck with verizon yet, but I did get it created on some servers automatically. There is a free server that carries it....

I have a AMD Pro 3100A+ Processor running on a PC Chips M825G MainBoard. ( http://tinyurl.com/47fus ) with 1GB of DDR. Windows reports it as a AMD Athlon XP 2000+ Does anyone know why? BTW, its running at 1.67GHz and its not clocked. --

See benchmarks at: http://www.amdzone.com/ http://www.anandtech.com/ Opteron at 2.0Ghz is categorically faster in the great majority of benchmarks compared to the 3.2Ghz P4 with HyperThreading enabled. Memory performance is also superior, something

I have been building AMD's for a few yrs but made the mistake of buying a Celeron 2.3GHZ 256MB Dell Latitude ($600 new). What a dog! Decoding Naked News at the maximum bitrate in WMP takes 100% of the processor. A T-Bred 1700+ running @2000+ (1.67GHz) uses only 15%. And it feels so slow, even...

How much mains power does a modern systen unit need? ---- In more detail ... I am in the UK. My existing PC (socket-A 462-pin cpu with 768 MB SD-RAM) uses about 180 Watts at 240 volts of which about 65 or 70 Watts is to power my CRT. Printers and scanners would be extra.

Hey all, Anyone have any links to reviews comparing Artic Ceramique (Arctic Ceramique) with Artic Silver 5 (Arctic Silver 5)? I'm unable to find any, only AS5 vs AS3. Thanks all

Hello, All! I'm interested in getting a 939 socket m/b and an Athlon64 3000+. I've always been an Asus m/b person, but thought I would at least test the waters on views of the Asus vs. other m/b's. Any views on 'best' of these three manufactures for socket 939? Thanks. Colonel Blip.

Hi, I've been using a Globalwin FOP-32 heatsink/fan for the past couple of years and the noise hasn't been that much of a problem until now. but now that i have broadband in my room, i want to be able to leave the computer on and sleep at the same time! This heatsink and fan won't let me do that...

Anyone have any idea as to the performance increase I would see. Current Setup as above with a Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe adn and MSI NEO2 Platinum Board

In short: HT/FSB will not go above 225 MHz :( Even if I underclock my memory using a divider and underclock the CPU using a low multiplier, I can't get HT above 225 MHz without the system freezing! Since I am underclocking both memory and CPU, I guess none of these could be at fault. Or what? I...

Dodgy scenario: I need to test a motherboard to POST with an Athlon 64 3000 venice CPU but I don't as yet have a heatsink/fan. So I was wondering if I could get away with a few secs of power without the heatsink/fan while I see if the motherboard POSTS. I once fried an Athlon 1.0ghz by running it...

What is better an AMD Athlon or AMD Barton CPU ??

I have a question about the line of true 64 bit processors. When they are running 32 bit software, do they take the instructions, data, etc. 2 blocks at a time or is there half of the cpu that is not being used?? Where this is leading, is to the question is it better to have a super hi speed...

I have a Gigabyte 7VT600-1394 and a 2500+ o/c to 3400+ish (14.5x166). The system is prime95 stable for about 10 hours and seems to run gr8. my question is, would this much o/c affect the onboard sound? when ever I try to play a game (Warcraft 3, for example) the right channel has quite a bit of...

Yes recon your right,Im sick of the ****ing around that amd are doing with chip speeds For instance I have an old Xp 2700 athlon chip which runs at a standard 2.22ghz . Funnily enough almost exactly as fast as the new xp 3200. crazy numbers crazy confusion. all that matters really is raw ghz...

I have one of those fancy reserators - water cooler. The supplied heatsink block for the processor is gold plated (copper underneath I think). I bought another for the 2nd cpu, and they would only supply the plain copper one. Now I thought the gold was better - that's the way they advertise it. ...
