I have an MSI Neo2 Platinum motherboard right now with an AMD64 3000 and 1 GB of OCZ PC400 ram. I am upgrading my fathers K6 III 400 (finally) so I may just give him my platform and a spare 80 GB HDD and migrate myself over to a new platform with 1 GB of DDR2 and whatever AM2 CPU I can afford...
Merry xmas.
I received a Celery M 370 1.5 ghz laptop for xmas but want to swap it for an AMD laptop and in the process, I will replace my desktop PC. Need advice.
Ok, my rig is this:
AMD64 3000+ (Artic Silver + oem HSF)
MSI Neo2 Platinum
XP Pro SP2 (not sure if I could/should keep...
Just as the subject line says. The Office 2003 Pro package I bought came with an SP1 CD dated November 2004. Should I install the SP1 November 2004 CD or download from MS? I let Office 2003 and XP go to the MS website for updates but the descriptions of the SP1 download are pathetic and don't...
Whats my Matrox G400 max dual-head 32 MB AGP card worth? I really don't want to sell it that badly, and have thought about putting it in my fathers PC instead of selling it. What is this card worth?
thanx

Looking at getting a Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 SATA150 200G 8M 7200rpm (#ST3200822AS) for my MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum system. I don't think there's any point in getting the NCQ version? Its only 160 GB vs 200 GB. Also, nForce 3 of my MB doesn't support it, so it won't make any difference in speed...
Does anyone know how much you can underclock an ATI 9700 Pro AGP video card? I want to install the card so I can play 3D games if and when I want to, but I want to underclock its 2D and 3D so when I'm surfing/word processing and using spreadsheets etc, its running slower and cooler. I believe...
I heard that people are having problems with video capture using the 9x00 cards which have the theatre 200 chip. Anyone else experiencing this? I found the info on the Rade3D forums. Something to do with problems with the theatre 200 chip on video gain during brighter scenes causing banding...
Are you using PS2 Mouse/keyboard? Matrox G400 max dual-head?
Seems people cannot use a Matrox G400 or PS2 mouse/keyboard with the MSI K8N Neo 2 Platinum motherboard. I bought this motherboard before hearing of these issues. I'm ready to sell it.
Has anyone setup a system with the Asus A8V...
What is this card like?
AIW Radeon 7200 32m
I have a Matrox G400 max but its incompatable with my MSI K8N NEO2 Platinum motherboard. I'd like to upgrade to an AIW card like the ATI AIW 9600XT eventually but cannot afford it now. What is the AIW Radeon 7200 32m card like in general and in...
I have a Matrox G400 max. It obviously won't work in the MSI at this time. Maybe they'll issue a fix in their BIOS, but its been months now. What is a good compatable video card for the MSI Neo 2 Plat?
I don't play alot of 3D games and would have been happy with my G400 max. I do like the...
Just wondering about the stability of the MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum motherboard?
Also, I hear there are issues with Matrox G400 max compatability? Bios versions over 1.1 are needed to work with the winchester CPU and yet using that BIOS results in problems with the G400 max?
Of course my system...
Upgrading from my previous PC. I had a SB PCI 128. I was going to upgrade to an Asus A7N8X E Deluxe which apparantly had soundstorm.
What is the onboard sound of the Neo 2 Platinum like compared to SB PCI 128? SB Live! Sound Storm? I know there are nVidia drivers out there that potentially...
Upgrading PC. Which OS to use now?
Upgrading PC to AMD64. I have an 80 GB HD with FAT32 partitions. The primary partition is still FAT32 and a little over 16.7 GB and is blank. My data is on the other two 28.6 GB FAT32 partitions. I have 1 GB set aside for the swapfile.
My MSI motherboard...
About to install my motherboard into my case and I'm just making sure I do this right. I'm using mostly the brass stand-offs which screw into the case and then you use screws to screw into the brass standoffs to secure the MB. I'm using the shorter standoffs, 1/4" high. I'm also going to use a...
If I stick with this socket A 462 setup for now, I need to get it going.
Does anyone have any suggestions for how I should setup the following?
AMD mobile XP-M 2500+ with stock oem HSF.
Asus A7N8X E Deluxe
OCZ Premier 2 x 256 MB PC3200 DDR (2.5-3-3-7)
I want to run 200 mhz (400) fsb...
I'm looking to run an AMD64 winnie 3000+ or 3200+
Which motherboard do you suggest?
The Epox is the least expensive. The Asus is another $10 CAD and the MSI is another $26 CAD. Not a huge difference, but apart from an extra firewire port and Dual LAN with gigabit, I don't know what all the...
If I buy the MSI Neo 2 Platinum MB wil my OCZ premium DDR work? My DDR ram is still in the package so I can return it if need be.

PC 3200
256 MB Dual Ch Premier Series
2.5-3-3-7
