    Post yur highest 2-2-2 mem speeds ! :)

    1.5-2-2-5 @261mhz some friends of mine ( some of those @extremesystem ) can reach 280-284 with 2-2-2-5 :)

    SuperPI Contest!!!

    Better way to check it, is to run a 1M test for instance, and see in the task bar if it uses the two cpu's on it. I doubt that super pi is SMP aware. Also, could you give us another pic of your system ? because that one doesn't show the total score of the calculations... :)

    SuperPI Contest!!!

    Just one heads up. The Super Pi benchmark is very memory dependent in quality and quantity. While on the 1M these two variables sometimes do not accours, when running 32M bench is well seen. Those who have faster ram will get a better result then the ones with slow memory, and those who...

    SuperPI Contest!!!

    Those are VERY RARE chips... Maybe with the improvement of yieldings things getter better. Right now, "normal" is 2550-2650, many are getting 2700, and some 2800. Period. To get over that some luck is in order and temps like the ones of that guy at 3100... :)

    Do I benefit from expensive RAM if I only run at Stock speeds

    Do you have numbers to backup what you are saying ? Can you elaborate more on this subject. I would be very much interested in hearing more from this two statments...

    SuperPI Contest!!!

    Super Pi is one of the benchmarks that loves Cpu Mhz + high FSB + high speed memory. That's why it is widely use for the comunity of overclockers to compare machines. I get 31seg with my 3000+@2620 with memory @183 ratio giving 262mhz @2-2-2-5 :) Also get about 28seg with 3000+@2430 on Linux...

    Highest FSB on K8N Neo2 with BH-5 at 2-2-2-5?

    None. Just a good ventilated box. Bh-5 where designed at the beginning to run at 3.3V, but then DDR2 came at 2.6V. The 3.41v were reading the vddr on the motherboard with a multimeter. OCZ Booster shows 3.4 on the display.

    Highest FSB on K8N Neo2 with BH-5 at 2-2-2-5?

    Sorry for jumping in late. Yes, i'm running now a Booster. With the P4C800 for P4 I did a vdimm mod because it was real easy, but with the MSi it's a little bit trickier. You don't need to have great power. You could run the bh-5 with 166 or 133 dividor on BIOS, but loosing some...

    FX55 Prelim Results

    No, actually it's 3Dmark2001 scores. I have a shi*** card right now, and only allows me to play games at medium resolution. Waiting for better card again... ( 9800XT I miss you :) ) Also, yes, the ram has some effect on super pi crushing. I'll get back to your PM later.

    If you could enlighten us with your wisdom, and tell me what misinformation i'm telling, i would be greatfull. Also, here's my info from my current PC ( don't have a better video card right now ) : A64 @1800 FX5500 @270/400 = 7878 marks A64 @2683 FX5500 @270/400 = 8073 marks A64 @1800...

    FX55 Prelim Results

    Yes, that's true. But some people with lots of money and dunno what they are running, seems to lack either inteligence and education to be on public forums.... my 2 cents. Now let him brag about is fx55 some more...

    FX55 Prelim Results

    Actually your wrong. 3Dmark2001 is a much better indicator of the performance of the machine than 2003 or 2005, which are GPU dependent. But I agree, ca1n intervention was out of order.

    Athlon 64 3500+ OC?

    Ask them at what speed they are running it ;)

    FX-55 vs. 3500+

    Yes, the FX-55 is a good overclocker due to it's better yielding. Most people are getting 2900-3000 on air with good cooling/cases and luck. @3000 it's one damm fast machine copped with TCCD chips..

    Low performance???

    You sure in BIOS the correct multiplier is choosen ? If it is in AUTO, set it in manual to the correct one.
  24. S

    Low performance???

    You have something wrong in BIOS. Go there and check if multiplier = 10x and htt = 200.
  25. S

    Low performance???

    Yes, they are way down. First, check to see if dual-channel is really on. Also, did you install Nforce Drivers of the mobo ?
  26. S

    Think 1040HTT is gonna be OK?

    They recomend the 1000 because of stability mainly. Of course it may vary. Some will run fine @1100, others can have problems @1040. If it works, don't fix it.

    who has a A64 3200+ overclocked-- Tell me what you did

    Maybe if you could be more specific on what is going on, more people could chip in. What have you done, and what are you doubts ?!?

    To overclock or not to overclock..that is the question

    The question is SPEED, SPEED, SPEED... That's it. When we talk about OC, you have to understand that it's not a science nor a sure thing. That's why some don't OC, some OC to 1%, other 5%, others 10%, 15%, 20%, 50% 75%,100%.... It's all about beeing smart in buying the "right stuff" and...

    To overclock or not to overclock..that is the question

    I believe you are talking about medium-hard overclocks. These days, almost ALL cpu's give a free 10-15% increase in speed with the same memory and stock cooler. Heck, some even do 20-25% FREE... You just need to be smart when buying stuff, as many people are discovering it after ;)

    Athlon 64 3000/3200+ can overclock as high as the 3500+?

    The 3000+ is 1800Mhz by default, not 2000mhz. It's a 600Mhz boost ! :) If you ask me, right now the 3500+ is a waste of money because the jump from the 3200+ is hugh. I would rather prefer the 3200+ if the 3000+ was going to be short of expectations.

    Athlon 64 3000/3200+ can overclock as high as the 3500+?

    I had a vdimm mod on the P4C800 made with a grabber, but on the Msi you need to cut a bridge on the board to run above 3.3. So i bought a OCZ Booster to help me take advantage of the BH-5. Yes, they are 2x256. Theres no point on P4C and A64 series to run single-channel mod ;)

    Athlon 64 3000/3200+ can overclock as high as the 3500+?

    Best Memory for K8N Neo2 Platinum

    Yes, the guilty is in something else, as your ram is way underclocked. Read some more thread and see if you are missing something... I've seen some people run 3000+ @2700 with default vcore, while others have a hard time passing @2500 with lots of vcore...

    Whoa, the Pentium-M processors kick a$$ in SETI!!!

    My A64 must be running >2400mhz to beat my laptop M 1.8 crushing Seti @BOINC. One hell of a cpu. The performance per Mhz is awsame.

    Why is it that Athlon CPUs seem to do better in games?

    I wasn't arguing value. I was saying that the Pentium M is here to stay, you like it or not. And yes, it is more expensive now than the others ones. EVERYBODY nows that. If it is best choise for normal users ? Right now, no. Sometime in the futures it will be a very good candidate. Just...
