    What would be the highest safe voltage for a Opty 165

    I'm using 1.55v on my X2 3800+ and i don't get higher temps than 40C at full load (using TT BT, no IHS). I can't seem to get past 2.7GHz though, should i use more voltage? :)

    Dual Core monitoring programs

    I wondered the same thing yesterday.. looking at taskmanager i thought to myself "why don't they color code the cpu usage for each process?"

    Poll: Would you rather have the 2405FPW or 2005FPW?

    one to one mode rocks! also i love the 1200 vertical resolution of these screens.. for games that only do 4:3 you can always play 1600 1200

    Acer 24" AL2416Wd 6ms

    I think the D version has a DVI-D port. there seem to be two versions.. This screens looks awesome to me. Just have to be careful you're getting the one with the DVI-D port. And i'd like a black one better than a silver one.. Here's a link...

    AMD 3500 Issues + Upgrade to 3800x2?

    Serious, just another board isn't going to do anything for performance. The memory controller is built into the cpu and performance doesn't really depend on the board anymore. All the things you described which involve doing multiple things at the same time are indeed solved with a dual core...

    PCI-E audio vacuum and speculation on why

    If wish there were PCI-e only boards out there already, that would really stimulate all manufacturers to create pci-e devices. If there was one i would get it and just be stubborn and hold out till there are devices. I actually thought we would be getting 7 pci-e 16x slots, not just 2 fake 16x...

    Why don't they make one big processor out of a whole wafer? :D

    X2 game issue...Is it the same with ATI and NVIDIA?? How many problems are the P-Ds having???

    Just curious, but does linux show any sign of the problems described? Does linux have any of the games that show problems on windows?

    Suggestions for new memory?

    First boot it with 2 sticks, enter the bios.. Set the "Command Per Clock" to Disable, save it and turn it off. It should work then i think.. hope ;)

    New memory, new results

    What does the board's chipset have to do with the memory?

    7800gtx for $469 at newegg

    I wonder if it makes a difference to buy cards from companies who do speed binning. I kind of suspect that your chances of getting a good clocking card are better when you get one from a company that has only one model of the GTX, not OC versions and stuff. I bet all the good chips at BFG go...

    Which CPU shall I get?

    Sorry.. maybe i did get a bit too excited there ;) It's not a MUST or anything... I've read somewhere that ncq really shows improvements when used with dual-core, and with single core it doesn't matter as much. But i'm having a hard time trying to find benchmarks to prove it because they are...
