I have just bought a XP2400 and was going to stick the XP2000 in our other PC which has a 1.8 Duron in it. Silly question coming up... Which is better, the duron or the athlon? I know the athlon is only running at 1.67Ghz but is it worth swapping them over? Regards Rob

was looking around the net to see how high people were getting tbred A cores and came across this site http://www.pretestedcpus.com/amd.htm the guy is selling 'pretested cpus' pretested to OC to a certain speed, but they are all at 1.9v ! seems like a small kitchen oven to me, isnt that quite high?...

The immediate successor to Prescott after it tops out at 5.20GHz will be the "Tejas" core, also produced on a 90 nanometer process and delivering 5.60GHz using a 1066MHz system bus. That's slated to start appearing towards the end of 2004. The first Nehalem is supposed to appear at 9.60GHz before...

Often with my older computer running XP Home with a Duron 850 and 512M of PC 133 RAM I slow down to a snail's pace. This is particularly true when I am playing my favorite radio station with Winamp 5.02. I can go to task manager and see it never leave 100% CPU usage. On my newer machine, which runs...

I heard that today is the day that the 1006 Final Uber Bios will come out. If anyone heard this, or even has it, and can give me a link, i would greatly appreciate it. Thx, Rob

I have an AMD XP2000 mobile @ 2200MHz on an Aopen AK73 (A)-V. What is the best way for reaching 2200MHZ? 22x100MHZ or 16.5x133MHz. Chris

If i set the RAM to run at 1066 mhz in the bios, the computer won't boot. It defaults to 800 mhz, and when I set it back, it works fine. The mainboard is a Gigabyte GA-M750SLI-DS4, with a Quad AMD Phenom Black Edition 9950 2600 MHz and 8 gb of OCZ Fatal1ty OCZ2F10662G. I know about the problem...

Both my MSI and Shuttle mobos have a 4-pin socket for the 12V ATX connector from the PSU. My buddy's Asus A7N8X-X does not. What exactly does it power and how does the ASUS do without it? Rick

Everything else is alittle under. Its a Cogen PSu, Generic i think. \Thanks.

just curious, any benchmarks or charts on 12x200 vs. 24x100 to see real world performance difference using the same hardware just different settings? I googled for it but I must not be able to google worth a ****.

"Dan" wrote in message ... Hi I just upgraded from a Athlon 1ghz to a Athlon XP 2400 on a Gigabyte GA-7VXP Motherboard. Now the Athlon XP 2400 works perfectly at a 100FSB (XP1800) but the system won't post with a 133FSB. Hi...

I have tried absolutely everything to get this motherboard (gigabyte GA-7VRXP) to run at 133FSB. Hell to even post at 133FSB. I'm off to buy a nforce 2 motherboard which will not be Gigabyte!!! Dan

Just after a bit of advice!!!! Currently got an Epox 8KHA+ KT266A With Athlon Thunderbird 1400 & 256Mb PC3200 DDR (@ PC2100). Thinking of changing the board and was looking at the VIA KT600 and the Nforce2 chipsets. Anyone know if I will encounter any problems running my old...

Hi there, I have replaced an 850 Duron with an Athlon 1400(133), mainly because it was free. I did realise at the time that it would only run at 10.5 x 100 on my Asus A7VI-VM. As this mobo has no multiplier control and is not stable above 103MHz FSB, can I alter the multiplier to 12.5 by...

G'day, As far as I can see, the 1400Mhz 'B' Athlon Thunderbird must have had a 14x multiplier i.e. 14 x 100 = 1400. Assuming this chip is identical to the 'C' (133 MHz FSB) T'birds, except of course for the bridge settings that call for a 14 x multiplier, a 'C' T'bird should be able to do 14 x FSB....

cld i run a barton fsb 333 on my k7s5a, ivejust flashed to cheepoman bios

GRRR!!! I just wasted 3 hours trying to do this, my problems are as follows: 1) my cat decided to be amusing and knock the whole pot of conductive laquer onto the floor, leaving me with none. 2) the 1st bridge was successfully closed, but none of the other ones i did (4th ant 5th) would close,...

i've seen a 1700 dlt3c - is this an A or B? I was guessing B because of L=1.5V but i'm not sure. I don't wanna buy it if its not a B Its between this and a 2500 barton. the barton is about twice the price. which one? thanks
