I was looking for a 3700+ sandiego and a new mobo to overclock and came across this:

EDIT: You still need to pick the mobo using the link above.... (pull down menu on the right)
The processor is very cheap ($267 combo price/...
When using everest home edition, I get Tcpu = 42C. and a Tdiode = 79C, Tsystem is 29C. I have a zalman CNPS7000B AlCu running at full speed so I'm guessing the 42C is closer to my actual temperature. How come there is such a huge difference between the two readings? Oh and it's a Barton 3000+...
These are the system specs:
ANTEC SLK1650 case w/ ANTEC 350w power supply
A64 3000+ stock heatsink (BIOS reportsCPU running at 18 C for some reason, system temp is in 30s C)
Chaintech VNF3-250 nForce 250 mobo
1GB Mushkin PC3200 (2x512)
Sapphire ATI Radeon 9800 PRO 128MB
2 Hitachi 160GB...
I would love to get some additional input here. I set the quality to low, and disabled everything in the advanced options menu, and set the resolution to 640x480. Then I did timedemo demo1.demo, and all I got for a score was ~72fps. This is my system:
Windows XP Pro
Athlon XP 3000+ (Barton...
I can't figure it out. This is the heatsink/fan I have (5500RPM fan): http://www.explosivelabs.com/reviews/copperx/index.shtml
I know it's not the best, but 80+ C under load doesn't seem right! I'm using plain white thermal compound, and it's applied correctly. Do you guys think a better HS/Fan...
I've heard of a few success stories and no failures with a BIOS flash to 1016. ASUS doesn't say it on their site (Only Rev 2.0 or later supposedly), but I did flash my BIOS to 1016 and the 166Mhz option is there. It will be a 3000+ Barton so I'm hoping it will work alright. Oh and technically...
This is what I have now:
Athlon 2100+ (266)
1GB PC2700 @ 333
Nvidia Geforce4 Ti4400 128MB
What would be the best upgrade for doom3/half-life 2?
A Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB, or an Athlon 3000+ (333)
I'm thinking the 9800 Pro would be a better overall upgrade, what do you guys think?
Oh and I have...
This is my current situation:
Athlon XP 2100+
1GB PC2700DDR @ 333Mhz
Nvidia Geforce4 4400Ti
What would make for a better upgrade? An ATI 9800Pro 128MB or an Athlon XP 3200 (333Mhz)
Basically I want it for Doom3/Half-life 2 so I'm guessing the video card, but I'd like some opinions. I wish I...
