P3 1000mhz + ASUS CUSL2-C
- Please submit your cooling devices and whatnot, as i dont know much about cooling and would like to know a good device to use.
Also what speed you have achieved so i know what to expect.

Thanks

I use a FOP-32 on my P3 700E @ 1000MHZ, it's a good balance of cooling and noise. About $19.00.

hey OJ i'm running same setup with new cusl2-c ..gave my abit se6 to mom and set this one up last weekend, i seem to be having a problem though...cant really get back to the 935mhz i ran previously on se6...chip temp seems hotter but running in same case Tornado 1000 and with golden orb same as before..i did add another strip of ram mosel 128 to make 384mb(all slots full) but read some reviews where they got all three strips to run at 133 but i seem to be having touble..run fine at 100mhz...dont kmow if its them or not. dont want to pull 2 out as i want to run it all...one note i just setup my mom a computer on the se6 and got her celron633 cco to 980 on it...even better than my p3700e but i have stepping prior to cbo and cco, not sure what it is maybe cao???

I never could get three sticks to run right on my board, from what I hear it is hit and miss situation on getting your board to run three sticks.

the i815 chipset supports only 3 banks of PC133 ram and 4 banks Pc100 ram.
If any of those modules are double sided then u are running out of spec and it could cause problems. try to run it first with 1 128mb stick and see if it works.

durn you guys told me exactly what i did not want to hear, i understand there is problems running more than one slot at PC-133 and sure enough i can't run at 133/133/33, but i do audio recording and video editing on this machine along with gaming...really can make use of the ram but guess i'll have to try with one strip just to satisty my curiosity...have only been able to get it to 917mhz and running way more voltage that it required on my abit se-6 to get there...what about jumper to increase voltage to ram....would'nt help me would it?
