    4870 x2 core speeds

    Honestly I did search. Thx. Spent all my time trying to get CCC to work. I guess my Server 2008 really messes things up. yusux, I tried fixing both cores to 850MHz and it didn't crash my desktop but I can't OC the ram to 1GHz...

    4870 x2 core speeds

    I just found that it seems my two cores are running at different frequencies for 2D. One is at 507/500 and the other at 750/500. I got the data from GPU-Z. Is that normal?

    Dual PSU?

    I disabled auto reboot and chose full memory dump in order to see if I can get any information. No luck. The system just goes blink and reboots itself. No trace in windows xp so far.

    Dual PSU?

    I wanna cry..... :'( Just spent $150+ on a new PSU 500W with 33A on 12V and zalman vf900-cu for my aiw x1900.... The problem still persists... If I watch TV eventually it will reboot all of a sudden... In Catalyst Ati admits the problem of rebooting when watching TV, but it's for x1800...

    Dual PSU?

    Hm.... interesting. They actually have small factor psu dedicated for video cards already. I was planning to get a regular PSU, say, 250W to 300W, I'm guessing the 12V power on those should be enough for my aiw x1900 right? I can't go CF anyways... BTW, does my problem look at a power shortage...

    Dual PSU?

    Just got my Aiw x1900 a few days ago. I know that Ati recommends 30Amp on 12V of your psu if you want to use this card but I only got 19A for my PSU. It runs fine in 3D games and other stuff. However, my system reboots occasionally when I watch TV... weird. And if I overclock my sytem, the...

    Concerns about ASUS A8V Deluxe

    OIC. Thx first. I searched in Newegg.com and found quite a few mobo's that have agp and S939. As for that ASRock mobo, I heared the performance of that chipset is pretty bad in fact. That, stopped me from considering it. And I trust ASUS more than ASrock.....after all I used quite a few asus...

    Concerns about ASUS A8V Deluxe

    I wanted to get this mobo so i can keep my AIW x800 xt. But I heard that the agp/pci clock is not locked for this mobo, which makes it crappy for overclocking...... but OCing is my whole point :) Just wanna hear from some users or OCers of this mobo, does it OC fine with the venice core cpus...

    Best Socket 939 AGP OC board

    I have MSI Neo2 too. It works fine for me. I got my 3200+ venice running at 2.5 GHz. Highest was 2.7, but I think 2.5 is definitely safe. BTW, what's that sideeffects modded bios? Does it really help OC and where can I get it?

    Reeeeeeally weird problem

    My monitor is Apple cinema, which only let u change brightness.....And the lowest brightness on this monitor is still too bright for me. That's why i have to resort to catalyst. I never used software to change brightness and/or contrast before.

    Sound card recognized but no Multimedia Audio Controller

    I googled "creative sb0220" and found out that it's actually live! 5.1. So u can just go straight to www.creative.com, and click "support." Pick the right region, language and all that, you should be able to download the driver.

    Please help me overclock my friends machine

    I've used a Winchester 3000+. I overclocked it to 2550MHz ( 2500MHz ) at 1.6X. I think ur venice should be able to pass that. Usually try lower ur ram speed, let it run at 166:200 = ram:fsb, that's what i did.

    Please help me overclock my friends machine

    Please help me overclock my friends machine

    Increase the Vcore voltage can help reach a higher frequency. Basically increasing voltages make stuff more stable when OCing. But don't increase too much. Try to go by the smallest increment.

    Reformating

    so, what exactly is ur question? The sizes for 2 partitions and/or file system?
  21. H

    My computer keeps running out of resources after an hour or two.

    Check taks manager to see what processes are chewing up ur resources. Once u know that, maybe try to find if there's any compatibility problems, both hardware and software. There should be no way for ur 2.7Ghz computer to act like that. Have u tried re-installing the whole system?

    Chinese MP3 Tags

    I have the same problem. Thank god i only have a few Chinese songs. My advice is you change "Language for non-Unicode programs" to Chinese, in case you didn't try. And then, probably XP can recognize the tags. Mine did the first time I changed to Chinese(PRC). But since I re-installed XP a...

    Any reason not to run AMD Cool and Quiet?

    I have my venice 3200+ @ 2600MHz with Cool n Quite on for a while. It was disabled at first. To be honest I can't tell the difference. Why shouldn't you have it on if you are OCing?

    looking for a hardware monitor for MSI K8N Neo 2

    Bought my MSI K8N Neo2 for a few months and started looking for a sleek hardware monitor program. Didn't succeed. Tried MBM 5, didn't work out. And a few others like Speedfan, Hmonitor...... They just dont give me the correct stats. They give stats like my fan is 1XXXXX RPM or my vcore is...
