    AMD facing 20% revenue decline

    hm, that's interesting..I'm in University in Canada (aka college in states), and the Math & Stats dept just bought about 50 new computers for the cluster, all C2D Dell Optiplex workstations, they're small (roughly the size of 15'' laptop, and 3 times thicker). Too bad Matlab is not installed on...

    Intel to launch Woodcrest, Conroe and Merom in Q3

    Yes! b/c Apple will want to stay competitive with rest of the PC industry. Also Merom should bring 64bit support and additional performance at no extra power consumption, which should compete quite nicely with Turion X2s. Edit: Also I bet a lot of engineers is working overtime in the...

    Conroe 2.4GHz benchmarked

    I had no idea that there was going to be a 2.13ghz conroe with 4mb of L2 cache, well at least it wasn't listed in the initial road map. I thought there was only going to be 4 models: 2.66ghz, and 2.4ghz with 4mb L2, 2.13ghz and 1.83ghz with 2mb L2. Hm, if there's really such a 2.13ghz with 4mb...

    Just OCed my Northwood 2.8ghz

    Just for a point of reference, my 30 capper 3.0C can do 3.75ghz with 1.55V, or 3.6ghz with 1.475V, yes it's also a northwood core processor, but it's a nice chip. I use XP90 and 92mm panaflo low, it never went above 48 degree celcius, I live in Canada as well and that's in the summer. I'm...

    Conroe 2.4GHz benchmarked

    Does anyone have ducktape?? I need it to seal someone's mouth. Btw, in this article: http://www.overclockers.com/tips00593/ The writer specifically said "Dothan Desktops Probably Won't Overclock All That Much", for anyone who can read English properly, it's obvious the writer doesn't...

    Is my northwood dying a slow death??

    Thanks guys, I fixed the problem. Apparently it was a problem with NFSUG2 and ForceWare driver (still like Detonator better). Look into this thread if you have problems: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=687485#post687485

    Is my northwood dying a slow death??

    reset CMOS, and reseated the ram, now back up @ 3.75ghz!! everything runs perfectly fine except NFS UG2, so guess what, i'm gonna reinstall that suka and give it another go. btw, what are the chances that i can run 2.5-2-2-5 at ddr500 with 2.85V with my ballistix 3200??

    Is my northwood dying a slow death??

    I don't know how to run 2 instance of Prime, so I only run 1 instance. I'll try reset the CMOS jumper this evening when I get home, since I swapped ram a few times. btw, the game isn't BF2, it's Need for Speed, Under Ground 2. and what thermal grease would you guys recommend now?? cause...

    What is the fastest bit torrent client?

    I got a problem with Bittornado. When I run it everything is fine etc, but when I close it, and I goto my task list, it's still RUNNING in the system process and of course takes up a lot of ram too. Should I switch to another client??

    Is my northwood dying a slow death??

    I got a 3.0C northwood 30 capper SL6WK OEM chip from this forum, great chip, I used it with a XP-90 and 92mm panaflo fan, with 1.55V (asus p4p800, default vcore is like 1.475) I could run it 250fsb so 3.75ghz no problem with a ram divider, no crashes, primes with no problem etc. Then comes...
