    How to lock SATA and AGP

    I'm not familiar with that board, but usually, if it is not listed, it isn't supported. The may have a pci lock though. The only way to find out is to clock it up about 40 MHz. If your hard drive and graphics card still work, you probably have locks. Sisoft Sandra will usually tell you your...

    Need Help with Biostar TForce6100 754 and DTR CPU

    I guess I wasn't aware the tforce could support mobiles, and I used to own one. Do you have a link to where you read that information?

    Should I remove the IHS from Opteron 170

    I did it to my k6-2, and was able to pick up 7 more fps in Minesweeper with the additional overclock. You should try it.

    Dell overclocking

    After reviewing the board specs for the b110, I see it uses the intel 865G chipset, which supports the 800 fsb. By performing a pin mod on the 2.53 GHz Celeron D, it may be able to run at 3.8 GHz on the 800 fsb. A slight voltage bump could also be pin modded in. The only big issue that I can...

    Overclocking w/ Biostar Tforce6100-754

    set everything in the memory tweak page to manual. When you drop down with the dividers, the board tightens up the timings on you.

    So my dell laptop runs XP home.

    use the damn key that on the bottom of your lappy. It is an UNUSED, legit key. the oem installation used at the plant uses the different product key, as you've noted. So in short, M$ has absolutely no way of knowing you're using the copy of XP on the laptop still, b/c it is using a completely...

    Sempron64 2800+ or sempron64 3000+

    Yes, prime stable. Volts are 1.55v. It will do 2.3 GHz on stock volts, 2.4 GHz on 1.45 volts, and 2.5 at 1.55 volts, but that's pretty much the wall right now. I'm using the stock HSF. I may end up getting an aftermakret heatsink and pop the top of this cpu. That should allow me to lower...

    Sempron64 2800+ or sempron64 3000+

    Just figured I'd update this. I went with the sempy 2800, and am currently running it at 2.5 ghz. :P

    Sempron64 2800+ or sempron64 3000+

    I hear the Tforce 6100 has some outrageous overclock functionality (fsb settings up to 350?). That's one of the reasons I'm going with that board. Thanks

    Sempron64 2800+ or sempron64 3000+

    My current setup is a Celeron D 310 @ 3.6 Ghz (900 fsb, mobo limited oc). This rig is mainly used for video encoding. That being the case, the Sempy needs to be around 2.5 ghz to equal the performance (currently my cpu rivals an AMD 64 3400+ 939 in Divx) in that area. My reason for switching...

    Sempron64 2800+ or sempron64 3000+

    I'm torn between these two. $10 more for cool and quiet sounds like a deal, but only 128 kb of L2 vs the 256 of the 2800 leaves a sour taste in my mouth. Plus, it looks like the 2800 may o'c better, as all I've seen for the 3000+ is around 2.2 to 2.3 Ghz, and I'd need at least a 2.5 Ghz o'c to...
