    I got a watercooled 2,4B C1 which I bought in early december 2002. I have been playing around a bit but the highest FSB I cant get is 172 with Ram at 340 something. Best performance seems to be at 162 with Corsair XMS3200 C2 at 410 Mhz, 2,2,2,5 all at default voltage. I have a radeon 9700Pro...

    Stop waiting for 8INXP and take SINXP (8SQ800) instead?

    I have been waiting for my 8INXP since early december now and getting a bit frustrated. Since yesterday the P4G8X is available for the first time here in Austria but I´d rather wait two weeks more for the 8INXP, I think its slightly better. But waiting so long also has its advantages, waited so...

    P4 or Athlon, RDRAM or DDR

    Want to buy CPU, mainboard and RAM, what do you guys suggest. Should not be topnotch>too expensive, but good performance-cost relation. I could afford about a P4 2,4 or Athlon2400+ and 512 MB PC2700 CL2,5 RAM from Kingston, not the CL2 from Corsair, though. Maybe 512 PC800 RDRAM from Kingston...
