    A8N-SLI OC'ed running stable, no more glitches :)

    i have a pretty close setup as yours but i was under the impression that when you set the divider to DDR333, it is actually doing 4/5. am i wrong? is it 5/6 or 4/5? btw, Reblion, try uping the Vdimm and/or Vcore when you get stuck.

    Vantec VS. Speeze value and performace help me decide

    Aeroflow sucks. Nothing good about it, it gave the same temp as intel stock. Only the core is copper rest of it is aluminum. IMO, not worth buying.

    your local radioshack has them on sale for 29.99 + a pack of AAA battery.

    CPU Cooler decision help please!

    Don't do Aeroflow, ur computer won't get much cooler than ur stock. i know, i "had" one. Aeroflow throws the BS about its design and material. After all, ONLY the core is copper, it is aluminum.

    Do RAM-sinks actually work, or are they a waste of money?

    here is my personal experience and i hope it helps. ATI stock cooling with OC: 310/280 before showing artifacts. ATI w/ iceberq cooling with OC: 350/330 before showing artifacts. IMO, it works, it has shown good results for me.

    Overclocking simple issue!!!

    i think a lot of it is luck. i initially had a 2.4C retail and it can only be OCed to 3.0, anything beyond that my games will crash. Then a month later my friend brought a 2.4C retail from Taiwan and i took it for a test run. It did 3.5 before it pooped on me. From this i have learned that yes...

    Kingston Hyper X or Mushkin?

    i got kingston hyperx pc3200 and currently i'm running 416.6 on it with 2-4-4-7. this pair i have is rated at 2-2-2-6 but i can't get anywhere pass 400 with that timing unless i relax the timings. but i think 2-4-4-7 is not bad. I haven't had a chance to try other brands so i can't make any...

    new 3Ghz++ rig ideas please!

    if you got more money to spend, get a koolance exos for cooling. water cooling will help you max your OC.

    Is 44^C a good full load temp for a P4C 2.4 OC'ed to 2.65?

    even with stock cooler, you can push that chip at 250fsb @ 320mhz ram. at the end you get 3Ghz and DDR at 400mhz.

    P4C800 DELUXE NOT HITTING BEYOND 250FSB.

    what's ur voltage on the rams? you should try 2.85 for Vdimm. Then you might be able to run 1:1 ratio. edit: did you relax your timing a little bit? Personally, i think the mobo, P4C800 deluxe, doesn't tolerate high speed rams very well. I think this way because every time when i try to go...

    P4C800 DELUXE NOT HITTING BEYOND 250FSB.

    Ok, i take it back but please don't tell me what i should be happy with or not happy with. Just because you had bad luck with your setup it doesn't mean you have the right to tell me what i should be happy with.

    Should I go with ASUS p4c800 Deluxe?

    Perhaps you should wait a little bit for Prescott it's right around the corner. =D From what I've read and studied, no motherboard company have actually claim a 100% guarantee that their current boards, p4c800 for example, will be compatible with the Prescott chip. Some say yes and some say no...

    P4C800 DELUXE NOT HITTING BEYOND 250FSB.

    200fsb/400mhz = 2.4ghz/400ddr 250fsb/320mhz = 3.0ghz/400ddr so if i set it on 400 then i will not be able to boot anywhere beyond the stock speed. I've read p4c800 deluxe review and some do claim that for some weird reason this board locks at 250fsb while p4p800 deluxe were able to hit 300fsb...

    P4C800 DELUXE NOT HITTING BEYOND 250FSB.

    theres a choice to do 266/320/400, i have it on 320. But i did try to put it on 266 but once i hit over 250fsb my system crashes after a little while after windows boots up.

    P4-2.6c Experience - With pics! :D

    I think you get a lot more outta that setup! Also, why did you increase your VAGP core to 1.6? default is at 1.5 right? What does the increase in VAGP do? Does it stablize your system? Cause i read in an article that after numerous tests they do not see why VAGP voltage needs to be adjusted if...

    QUESTIONS ABOUT AGP VOLTAGE.

    What does increase/decrease in AGP voltage do to the video card? When overclocking the whole system via FSB, will it stablize the system more with increase in AGP voltage?

    Fellowes Metal 7 Outlet Surge Protector for $9.99 YMMV

    Went to officemax today and found this on sale for $9.99 + tax out the door. No rebate hassles or tricks. It retails for $29.99 and it usually is on sale for $19.99 so $9.99 is a pretty hot deal if you need a quality surge protector. Provided with $50k Connected Equipment Warranty. I don't...

    What did you see as in performance when upgrading from 512ram to 1G ram?

    IMHO... from 512 to 1024 only did one thing for me. 1-2 less reboots a day. Performance wise, i don't feel that it is THAT much faster.

    Why the heck are there so many types of PC3200 memory?

    I wouldn't recommend using Kingston HyperX if you are planning to do intense overclocking. I got a pair 512mb HyperX PC3200 (400mhz) and when i OC my 2.4C the ram will not go any higher than 400mhz. It's actually funny. if i pushed the ram speed to 401mhz my system will crash after booting. But...

    Vcore Question:

    my board supports up to 8 USB devices and currently i have six used. So my question is this: Does USB devices (HD, DV, PDA Sync, Mouse, etc.) causes the motherboard to up its voltage? It doesn't make sense to me that I have 1.70 Vcore set in BIOS while actual Vcore shown in Asus Probe is 1.776...
