Sorry, forgot to mention I have tried clear cmos (button on back) everytime I have tried different memory/card configuration.
Also it might be relevent to note I did not change any voltage settings or do any overclocking with this system, so everything was running fine at default settings...
I built this computer about 8 months ago:
Intel 9650 Quad
4 x 1Gb OCZ Flex memory
9800 GX2
X-Fi soundcard
850W Powersupply
Vista64
It worked fine for 6 months, then one day we lost power while it was in "sleep mode". upon restart it would go to the dratted DET DRAM msg and hang.
I...
What OS are you using?
Are you really outta HD space or is the install just freaking out?
Are you installing from the OEM Disk that came with the SB card or did you download from Creative the latest?
I had major problems installing the SB Live software for my Platnium - it was corrupting the...
I went ahead and ordered both the Delta 30 and Delta 38 to experiment with (noise vs cooling). If I have to use the 38 then I guess I can always crank up the 400 Watt Klipsch's, wife and next door neighbors permitting of course.
If that doesn't work then maybe I will go with the swiftech...
Is the Delta BL you mention the 30 CFM, 38 CFM or the 41 CFM fan that you are using with your SK6. I would really like to get my temps down to what you are running with your 1.3.
Thanks for all the good tips. I never found the delta 30CFM before. Maybe that will buy me couple more degrees C. Does anybody have experience with the noise of this Delta compared to the 38?
The blowhole idea is a great Idea too. Problem is I am either too busy or too lazy (I can't decide)...
That is true, the two fans could be fighting each other (the theory was lots of cool air in, positive air pressure, hot air would be forced out through the other holes in the back as well as the misc cracks. However, I have been running it without the case side on and with a house fan blowing...
I recently built this new computer:
A7A266 Mobo
1.3G AMD
(2) 40G IBM 7200 RPM HD
Asus GF3
512 DDRAM
120mm Panaflow front intake fan
90mm Sunon fan mounted in back blowing ducted air straight to the CPU area on Mobo.
The POS HSF I originally installed had it running unstable at 58 - 64C. I...
Not an official test, but I just replaced my no-name heatsink fan on my AMD 1333G with the SK6 / 26CFM Sunon fan and dropped my CPU temp down from 58-62C to 48-52C.
I benchmarked 3DMark with the following results:
3DMark2000 - Benchmark 8300 (approx)
2DMark2001 - Benchmark 5200 (approx)
Are these good numbers keeping in mind nothing is overclocked and the test was not "optimized", had desktop items running.
The compare results online function...
I recently built the following system:
A7A266 / 1333 AMD processor (no overclocking)
ASUS GF3
S/B Live Platinum
Kenwood 72X CD
Plextor 16-12-40 CDRW
With the initial POS heat sink fan I was getting 58 - 64C CPU temps (both BIOS and MBM5). I since replaced that with the Thermoright SK6 HS with...
I'm the brother-in-law. I installed the latest NB 1647 (ALI chipset) drivers from Acerlabs and improved my benchamarks to more than double (3d2000 from 4150 to 8500, 3d2001 from 2220 to 5300).
Funny thing is the drivers say they are only for the Rage Pro video card(I have an ASUS GF3), but...
