    Acceptable temps?

    What are the acceptable temp (c/f) threshholds for a AMD64/3200+ - MSIK8NSLI - 1gpc3200 - Ledtek6800THD. I am looking for both CPU and System temps. And what would be acceptable during gaming and non gaming loads.

    Ping problems...

    Just built a new sys (MSIK8NNeoSlI + 1gigDCpc3200 + Ledtek6800THD 80gig Seagate cuda) This sys replaced the sys I built a month ago (AsusA8NSLI + 1gigDCpc3200 + Ledtek6800THD + 80gig Seagate) which my son bought. Everything seems to be running fine except the ping rate I am getting in the exact...

    A8NSli users, does your rig do this?

    I play Point of Existence (a Battlefield Vetnm. mod). I get a freeze now and again (few seconds and then everything goes back to normal). The freeze usually happens in the heat of battle (a lot of activity). It is not a connection warning lad, or a lag you get with an underpowered sys. The games...

    No lag, but sometimes games frz for a moment

    Once and a while the game will freeze for a few moments, and then go back to normal. The game runs smooth. Could this be that it was waiting for data? Generally, when it has happened, I have not received a connection warning. New sys... all stngs on high, but no lag whatsoever...

    I just added an additional 512 DC ram to my rig (new ttl 1g of DC pc3200). Before I added the extra ram, my 3Dmark05 was 4757 (Asus A8Nsli/3200+winni/512DCpc3200/Leadtek6800thd256-cor456-mem863/older seagate80g7200sata). Having added the extra 512, my 3Dmark05 only went up to 4758 :-( I had...

    Asus A8N sli Memory prob...

    I have just built a new sys based on the Asus A8Nsli. I am having a prob. When I have just 512 (2x256) everything boot fine etc. When I put the other 512 (2x256) the sys seems to be booting but the monitor does not receive signal. Thought it might have been the older ram. Ordered a new set of DC...

    Asus A8NSLI performance question

    I have just upgraded from a P4P800/2.4c sys to an A8NSLI/3200winch + 512DC + Leadtek 6800thd/256 + Seagate 80g/7200/sata. It seems like the HD is not performing as well as it did in the P4P sys. Are there any configurations that need to be changed in the MoBo to make the HD perform optimally?

    I am building a new MoBo + CPU for my sys (1g DC pc3200 ram + SATA + 6800NU). Which of these MoBos is better. Every review I have read places these two boards very close. The Abit is a little cheaper. I would like some real world opinions.
