    Athlon xp 2500 mobile

    I also have a 2500 that cannot do 200x11. It will run at 9x230 but no matter what I do it will not run above 2100Mhz.

    Hi, I'm trying to remove the front chassis cover

    My 5.25" drives were holding my front cover on. Removed all clips and screws and could not remove front bezel. The drives had to be removed to get the front panel off.

    What PSU to choose?

    I have the 400w Fortron, good power supply but fan is loud. Had to replace it with a Panaflo M1. Then again opinions vary.

    Best Socket A cooler for under 15-20 bucks

    The alx-800 is on sale at CoolerGarage for 7.00, heatsink only no fan. I have also used the coolermaster XDream II, less than 15.00, but not as good as the alx-800. http://www.coolergarage.com/cpucoolers.html

    CPU causing memory problems.

    Know how you feel, tried to upgrade to a 2100 palomino on my kt133 board, it did not work. Had to purchase a new motherboard and ddr memory.

    CPU causing memory problems.

    Maybe temp related. My palomino 2100 would hit 70c, had all kinds of problems. Reseated heatsink installed a case fan and cut out case grills. Down to 50c with a room temp of about 31c (88f).

    finding the best psu

    I vote for the pc power and cooling silencer 360 or 410, 65.00 and 85.00. They have active pfc and a three year warranty.

    I replaced the stock fan in my fortron source fsp400-60pfn with the medium panaflo. Seems to be working fine and is a lot quieter.
