I am just upgrading from a MSI K8N Neo4 NForce4 939pin mobo & AMD Athlon 4200 CPU @ 2.5ghz. I searched on Anandtech for P45 Mobos and found that EP45-U3DP was given the Gold award so I purchased it. It seems overclocking is trickier on the Core2 Cpu and P45 chipset ( I can imagine an X58 &...
Has anyone tried to use VMWare ESX 3.5 on desktop chipsets like Intel P35, X38,X48 or Nvidia 600 or 700 series? I want to learn how to use Infrastructure 3 on Desktop hardware? I can't afford a server just to study vmware.
Trying to monitor and log results on my MSI Neo4 Platinum. Seems Prime95 fails when CPU reach certain Temps. Another problem is Corecenter seems to be overriding my settings set in Bios/CoreCell. Tried NTune and got a PCI Lock warning. What are you using?
FSB 260Mhz
HTT 4X
CPU 2.6Ghz...
Here is some information which I was told by PQI Memory Tech support because I couldn't reach DDR500 with their product. I set it for 250Mhz FSB, 8X CPU Multiplier, 4x HTT and all within normal operating range of the PQI PC4000 memory and the A64 3200+ (2.0Ghz). I would like to know any...
I have a K8N Neo4, A64 3200+ 939pin 90nm CPU and PQI Turbo PC4000 memory. Started by going for the gusto at 260 Mhz FSB, 4X HTT and various voltages. Prime95 always failed. Lowered to 250 Mhz FSB, 4x HTT and 8x multiplier at stock voltages that way CPU & Memory are at rated speeds. Still...
I'm looking at getting a DVD Ram to record Digital 8 recording to DVD. I would like to use it to make backup copies of Movie and Game DVD's. I'm looking at the Pioneer A03 DVRD or Panasonic LF-D311SC. On the Pioneer site they stated that they are part of the Copyright Infringement Association...
I wanted do know if a 100MBz FSB Duron, 266FSB mobo and 2100DDR ram work. Do mobos have the ability to clock the CPU at 100Mhz FSB while clocking the Memory and Ram at 133Mhz double pumped. I know that some mobos can decrease the RAM timings for PC100 memory on the KT133 mobo. I had for 2...
I bought a unlocked 700 Mhz Duron which came locked. Emailed sales and got email back from support that I could connect them with a pencil. Duh, if I wanted to do that I wouldn't had bought it unlocked. Tried it and could not get above 800 Mhz. Emailed them six times by email and phone with...
Got a Locked 700Mhz Duron I've got working only at 850 Mhz using the pencil trick. I would like to use the Loctite Rear Defogger conductive adhesive to make better connection on the L1 Jumper. How did you guys apply it? I would like some suggestions.
I had a 700 Duron week 23 L1 bridges intact that I overclocked to 997Mhz when I mistakenly disconnected replacement (Alpha PEP66U) HSF when applying more arctic silver. I ordered an unlocked 700Mhz Duron from Overclockerz.com that came locked and penciled in the L1 Bridges. I can set the...
Got a new Alpha PEP66U for replace my Globalwin FOP32-1. Problem was that I forgot to plug in the Fan and "phhhht" went the Duron. I've ordered a new one already unlocked, but I don't know how I'm going to get the Thermal Sensor off the old one and onto the new one. I have three new...
Saw a blurb on the sidebar of Anantech Home Page. Downloaded it but AsusUpdate won't flash it as it sees the bios as not compatible. Even though the bios says for A7V. Anybody try it yet.
I got an Asus A7V v 1.01 which I added a 80mm 3 wire Case Fan with built in thermistor. In Bios and PCPROBE 2.12 the fan takes a while to register. In PCPROBE though it disappears and the RPM's go to 0. I'm using Bios ver. 1004a. I have 1004c & d just haven't had the heart to flash to...
I'm warning all A7V ver. 1.01 owners by buy replacement thermal sensors while you can for future Heatsink/Fan or Cpu replacement.
I had removed my thermal sensor and couldn't stick it back on. Tried using masking tape, but it stopped working altogether. After some research I found the P2T...
Had installed PCProbe 2.11 which found -5v not up to spec and chassis & power supply fan checked off(Disabled). Set Bios hardware monitor to ignore -5, but PCProbe 2.11 still monitoring voltage so I disabled it in PCProbe. Install 2.12 which saw that the Bios was not monitoring -5 voltage...
Got a new Globalwin FOP32-1. Thought that I move the thermistor to the other side and closer to the die. Tape wouldn't stick. Used new masking tape. 0c temps. Took apart again flipped on its other side and boom 0c temp. Can anyone help?
I just got a new chrome orb with the square bottom that lays on the rubber feet of the Athalon T-bird or Duron. Clip also has been revised and doesn't seem to put so much pressure on the cpu die. I had Cracked off some the the die epoxy with the Gold Orb.
I had no problem setting the jumper free pin and setting the multiplier to 9.0x and voltage 1.8v and running rock solid. I had problem with the -5v on the power supply and I'm using Cas2 PC100 memory. Tried a Antec 235px 250watt power supply which fixed the voltage problem, but still could not...
