I usually run prime95 for 12 hours or more. I just start it before I go to sleep and leave it running overnight and into the next day whenever I get back to the computer. Usually comes out to about 12 hours maybe a couple more sometimes. If it runs for that long without errors then I consider it...
My old 2500 xp-m is now sitting in my mom's pc running at 2.4ghz @1.7v. That thing served me well when it was in my main rig. Used to run it at 2.5ghz @ 1.9v with an all copper thermalright heatsink. I think that processor is going down in history as arguably the best price to performance ratio...
I'm running a Winchester core Athlon 64 3200+ @ 2.5ghz with an MSI K8N neo2 platinum mobo. Now under full load from prime95 running for a while the CPU temp is pretty stable at 59C. This temp seems a bit high to me, however, the system has been running prime for almost 12 hours now with no...
My friend has two WD 80gig ATA100 drives that hes had in his system for about two years. Recently one of the drives starting clicking and corrupting his OS so he ran the WD diagnostic tools from a bootable CD and the drive failed. He ordered a new motherboard, CPU, vid card and RAM as an upgrage...
The temps may be fine, but I still dont like that fact that my temps are quite higher than other people's at this voltage. Even people that run near 1.7v are still like 1 or 2 degrees cooler than me. It must be the way I apply the paste, I'll have to try the methods suggested here. Also, when...
I recently put together an AMD 64 winchster 3200+ with an MSI K8N neo2 platinum mobo. I am overclocked to 2.5ghz with 1.52v, however, my temps at idle are 36-38C and at full load, they jump to 52C almost instantly and after awhile they top out at 56-58C. At these temps however, the system passes...
I recently put together a new winchester 3200+ with an MSI k8n neo2 platinum mobo and I am overclocking it to 2.5 with 1.5v. However, my temps aren't that great. I have a Zalman cnps-7000b all copper hsf cooling it as well as 4 80mm panaflo h1a case fans. My case temps hover around 23-25C...
well, I have tried the dividers with this situation, but it doesn't like them at all. It will post but the bios will report that its in safe mode. The only divider which the memory worked at was 100mhz mem with 250htt and the cpu was 100% prime stable for a full day. I understand I am trying to...
I recently put together a new A64 3200+ winchester system with MSI neo2 platinum and I want to use my 2x512 sticks of Geil Ultra Series pc3200 ram I was using in my athlonXP rig. After following the quick and dirty guide stickied at the top, I found my cpu is 100% prime95 stable at 2.5ghz @...
I dont see why not? I mean, it won't be AS portable or easy as a small usb stick, and it will have moving parts instead of flash memory, but you'll have a lot more storage. If it's what you're looking for, go for it.
I just recently purchased a new MSI neo2 platinum mobo and 3200+ winchester as an upgrade from my old athlon xp setup. When I first put it together, I formatted my primary hitachi sata harddrive and installed windows only to have problems booting and corrupt partition tables. I ran hitachi's...
I have a 7200.7 160GB drive that I use as the storage drive in my pc. I don't have anything negative to say about it whatsoever. It's pretty quiet compared to my slightly louder Hitachi drive and fast too. I would definately recomemnd any Seagate hard drive to anyone looking for a quick...
Since I don't have access to another board/cpu to try it on, I borrowed a friend's Thermalright SLK-800 he wasn't using paired with an 80mm Y.S. Tech speed adjustable fan set on highest and blowing up. I got about 55-57C at 1.9v and about 44-46C at 1.75v. So as it turns out, I got better temps...
The only thing that leads me to believe that the mobo isn't reading temps too high is that the other night, I was running at 2.4 @ 1.9 and it got to 64C when my computer then became really unstable and crashed. Also, prior to buying the SI-97, I was using a Vantec Aeroflow hsf which gave me...
