His modus operandi hasn't changed an iota since 2000. |

I disagree with you... Harddisks shutdown for a long time because of inactivity... or they simply keep on spinning for a long time... And when they do spin up, they do so slowly... not abruptly. Harddisks were designed by IBM. We all know what happens when you try to take on IBM. You go down burning in flames ! =D Bye, * Skybuck. Skypuck Hard disks have a high startup/spinup current, quite a bit more than normal operating current , a PSU is more likley to fail at start up a change in throttle on a PSU would be small in comparison Cub |

The entire gamut range of available CPU throttling cannot damage the power supply. He is an utter retard, and should stay OUT of all PC cases. The little idiot should stay OUT of the goddamned BIOS settings as well. For once I can wholeheartedly agreee with you. Graham |

On Aug 2, 8:28*am, "Skybuck Flying" wrote: Hello, I have a new theory how the power supply got damaged: AMD's X2 3800+ dual core processor has CPU Throttling. I downloaded a special AMD Software tool called AMD Power Monitor or something like that. Which throttles back the CPU when it's idling... then when it needs to do work the cpu is throttled up. So on idle the processor will work at 1.0 volts... and then when it's busy it will work on 2.0 volts... maybe even voltages between it. These voltages fluctuations occur very rapidly. Think of it like this: You turn on the water... you turn off the water... then you turn it on again... then you turn it off again. If you do this at the right pace... the water in the tubes will start to pound on the inner tubing... and sooner or later something is going to break. This is probably what is happening inside the electronics. It will work for a while... but after one or two years of heavy usage.... kiss it goodbye ! Fluctuations in temperature seem to also cause problems for gpu's in laptops... Try doing that with your teeth fillings... ouch Crappy hardware nowadays, me very sorry I bought this crap. But it is powerfull and with some nice Skybuck experience and knowledge it might work after all. So I gotta find a new power supply... and leave the processor at always 2.0 volts to prevent any damage or temperature fluctuations. Don't know what happens to gpu though... though the 7900 gtx seems to be able to take quiet a beating... don't know about the components around it on the motherboard though You've been warned people =D Bye, * Skybuck. The clock rate is throttled, not the supply voltage. If you throttle the clock rate the processor voltage can be as well. * Reducing the clock rate reduces power less than linearly (constant leakage, which is significant). *Reducing the voltage reduces the power by the square. -- Keith I don't see this being done on desktop CPUs. |
