    Prime95 Question

    48-52c, it varied. I tried 450 FSB, machine would not even boot. Now that I've set the memory multiplier to 2.00 with 400 FSB, Prime95 fails on the first test.

    Prime95 Question

    So I oc'd a e4500 to 3.2 on a P35-DS3R with GSkill DDR2 800's rated for 4-4-3-5, I've got it set to 400x8. This is my first OC, I pretty much used Regalk's post as a guide. My Vcore is at 1.34 in bios, cpuz says its 1.312. I've got my memory multipler at 2.50. Don't know if you need the info to...

    AC7's stock thermal compound

    I'm currently building a system based on the P35-DS3R mobo. The mobo supports 800 and 1066 DDR2. I'm aiming to have an E8400 OC'd to 4GHz in this board. I've never really OC'd before so I'm not sure which to get. I've read if your going to OC you should have 1k+ but I also see folks with systems...

    Looking for some AGP advice

    n7, I just want to thank you. I've decided to go ahead and start building my next system. I was going to wait a few months for the new video cards to come out to start on it and make my switch to Intel. What I'm going to do though is build a cheap system that I can upgrade in a few months...

    Looking for some AGP advice

    Thanks for the reply and welcome, been a lurker for sometime. I won't be buying a whole new system, I already have a high end system. This AGP card is for a 2nd system. I don't have a need for 3 systems. This system does fine doing what I need it to do, theres no reason to upgrade the entire...

    Looking for some AGP advice

So I started looking into HD2600XT's but I've learned that there are several issues with drivers for those cards, so I'm...
