    Manual or Automatic RAM timings?

    the manufacturer guarantees stability at rated timings, so there is no gain in stability. The ram you list could hardly be slower (3-4-4-8 any way, especially at 2.7v). If you have any doubts about stability, download memtest86+, load onto a floppy and run 24hrs.

    DFI Lanparty

    You are running single channel with a divider, so the HTT and Memory speed don't match. If you use the recommmended slots your memory speed will increase to effective 436, (dual channel) which will do a much better job feeding your dual core. If you pause your post screen at ide detction you...

    Not compatible? EPoX EP-9NPA+Ultra and (1GB x 2) of OCZ Platinum 2-3-2-5 1T (Dual Channel)

    Have you tried 2.7v? (EVP to 2.8) It is rare for 2 gigs to run 1T at 400ddr. Regardless of board or CPU. It is not an rma issue, it is a cpu limitation.

    Put the sticks in the same color slots. This will give you dual channel (twice the bandwidth). The slot closest the cpu (4, , and 2, the matching color) are best for overclocking.

    2 Reporters could go to jail today for not revealing their confidential sources....

    A vey important Hmm point is missing from this discussion. The reporters in question, DID NOT WRITE, or PUBLISH or REVEAL the information they got from the leaker. Conservative columnist Novak did that. He has not been asked to reveal his source, nor been supeanaed. Much less been indicted...

    what would you get with 500 bucks?

    San Diego 3700 2.8 Ghz 1.4v on stock cooling. A venice may possibly clock higher, but will never out perform it.

    Question about two Athlon64 processors that look entirely different but have exact same specs

    Except for the heat spreader they are the same. Some times you need to flash the bios to a mobile compatable one (C'nQ will cover it). Most standard heatsinks will not work as the hieght is lower and not enough pressure is applied.. Perfect for water cooling.

    Cool?N?Quiet - how exactly does it work

    C'nQ will crash the system (when attempting to reduce voltage to under clock) most boards if voltages are set manually. Multi will go to what is set in bion,ie will not restore an 11x if 10x is set and Htt multi is uneffected. Basically I'm saying if you leave cpu voltages at default (auto)...

    Help with overclocking...please!

    Doesn't get any more basic than explaining what the busses are, what they do, and how and why you change them. What the voltages are and why you change them, and guide lines. Examples and tips. Go to asus's forum for particulars about how their bios is arranged and what they call things. To...

    Help with overclocking...please!

    More voltage to memory. cpu should do 2500 on good air cooling. Lower HTT multiplier. Read my basic overclocking guide here. http://forums.pcper.com/showthread.php?t=373812
