There wont be any latency issues for a couple reasons. First AMD waited, unlike Intel, for faster DDR2 memory speeds before agreeing to adopt the standard. Second, the onboard memory controller should be optimized for the DDR2 memory so latency issues will be minimized by keeping the timings...
Yes Quake4 is that demanding. Its not your video card that's causing the problem though, it's your ram. 512meg is simply not enough memory for new games. 1 gig is the minimum and some new games like BF2 will actually run better with 2 gig.
With 1 gig of ram you might be able to run at...
It's a good idea to upgrade the cooling on any component when overclocking is your objective, this includes ram, motherboard chipsets, cpu's and most definetly video cards. If your going to be pushing hard I would even recommend water cooling the card...
Im not so sure what your describing is a video card stall, it sounds more like a system ram stall. What do you have your AGP port set to? 64? 128? Try changing the size to one setting higher. Also its possible you have too much stuff on a 470w power supply. 4 harddrives and a dvd burner with a...
You can only move faster than light relative to another object, say two objects moving away from each other at .99C would appear to each other to be faster than light. Then again you couldnt see each other to notice. According to what i remember from the Ol college days actually traveling faster...
As far as the side thread on cosmic exspansion I thought I read in the August issue of Astronomy that "inflation" theory supports multiple universes influencing each other in unforeseen ways so its basicaly an unknowable thing as far as the universe ever stopping and/or contracting. I also...
It wouldnt count as perpetual motion anyway because even if you got it working the capacitor would have to be charged with some energy source. Even the best capacitor will bleed down eventualy...
You might have a go at flywheels and energy storage though if wheel spin gets you thinking....
Well of course your going to see an increase in top speed because you relaxed the timings and lossened up the memory top end. You could probably go 2.5-3-3-7 1T and hit the same speed. The problem is you may be getting worse results with that faster speed. I had systems give much better results...
You might have a chipset cooling issue as opposed to a cpu heat problem. Is you case cooling good ? anything blowing cool air on the chipset heatsink? If not I would try opening the case and pointing a fan at the inside, if the stability issue goes away Id look at the chipset being to hot....
Simply not true. Anand's own articles show clear performance drops associated with the 2T command rate, sometimes as much as 15%. Im not sure where this incorrect data about the on-die memory controller erasing the 2T command rate impact started, but its pure hogwash and people should stop...
Really ? I didnt realize believable benchmarks had been posted. I own a 5900 and 6800 GT and like them both, Ive also owned plenty of ATi cards like the 9800Pro, 9700Pro, 9500Pro. I highly doubt ATi is going to get "schooled" by nVidia anytime soon. At little less fanboyism is in order on both...
Bully for you mate. Maybe you should be at Dell.com if performance doesnt matter to you, hanging around a forum dedicated to maximizing performance seems kinda silly with that attitude.
Oh yeah, nForce4 boards are a dime a dozen that will do 300 on the memory.:roll: Im posting it as a...
According to Anand's own testing 2T loses around 4% against 1T in gaming, not benchmarks. Since many people here are overclockers and try to squeeze every drop of performance from their machine I think 4% is significant.
Upgrade....now. Months is legal grounds for D....
Dude that is some funny sh!t
Ever hear of these things called hookers? No reason to settle let alone do without!
Picard was a crying pansy boy...got a little Borg in the eye and turned sissy. Kirk would have ripped the Borg implants out and shoved'em down the Borg Queens throat...along with something else since she looked kinda green....in a certain light...
rotflmao :laugh: ok you've resorted to totaly rediculous statements. Since no experience with power supplies but yours counts I guess I'm done here....
Are you 15 years old ? Pwned ? How so, because you spout off with nothing but your uneducated opinion ? Did you read the dual core tests where the OCZ fell on its face, sorta like your lame reply. Reread the Tom's test and you'll see they tested at max rated load for 24 hours, these "consumer...
ROTFLMAO too funny man, too funny. I remember everyone stating the exact same crap about nVidia when the 9xxx series ATi cards were stomping on 5xxx series nVidia cards. nVidia had all sorts of develpoment delays and failed attempts and even when the 5900's came out they still sucked compaired...
That's funny because my S754 rig is running neck and neck with an FX-55, your suggesting everyone with FX-55 class rigs is out of date? By the time you build that S939 rig Socket M will be out and you'll be out of date again....better to skip S939 all together and just move to Socket M next...
This is really a silly topic, AGP is hardly dead or obsolete. ATi will be releasing their next generation card for AGP and nVidia will lose a boat load of cash. We all know (at least those that take the time to educate themselves) that PCI-E has zero benefit over AGP at this time and that will...
You really should take the time to learn about what your doing to a board by following this type of methodology for improving overclocks. Your overvolting the entire boards 3.3v components to try and get more juice to ram. Voltage adjustment does not work that way, you have to change the...
Wow this is quite possibly the lamest excuse for a reply I've ever seen. In fact it boarders on trolling. You give nothing but your opinion while I stated experience; like it or not your opinion isnt going to keep someone elses rig from failure due to a poorly chosen power supply. And because...
Your way too hot for some reason, figure it out or your going to smell burnt plastic someday soon. A64 should'nt be that hot even overclocked; my newcastle 3400 only hits 43c at load doing 2.6Ghz.
Theres nothing wrong with Tom's method of testing and there's nothing wrong with Antec supplies as long as you dont load them more than 50% of the supplies rating. They are fine for average non-overclocked systems.
Good one. Face facts, just because you bought something doesnt make it...
That's like saying "prove the earth is round". Join the twenty first century, it is proven scientific fact that all suns eventualy use up thier fuel and change states to eventualy become dwarf stars. This is not theory, it is backed up by observations of exsisting stars...
One disadvantage that gets virtualy no lip service is the fact that hybrid cars are an eco disaster waiting to happen. What are we going to do with thousands of tons of used batteries and the toxic chemicals that come from hybrids as all of these "enviro friendly" cars end thier usefull life...
