Parting out a cruncher

[natethegreat]

Well it's time to rebuild the kids computer so I thought I would offer these parts to the TeAm before putting it in FS/T.

This is what's up for grabs:

Abit NF7-S ver.2 (one of the best socket A boards made)
AXP-M 2500+ 1.8 Ghz (great overclocking chip, It ran at 225x11 @ 1:1)
Thermalright SI-97 (one of the best socket A CPU coolers)
SilenX 92mm system fan (got to have air for the cooler right? )
Rosewill RW9600-128VD Radeon 9600

I do not have the I/O shield (backplate) but I can include a couple IDE cables on request

$100 US shipped, I use USPS Priority with insurance and delivery comf. I will consider offers also.

HEAT and e-Bay evals.

Wow....great deal! I just sold my M 2500+ system to a friend, they ROCK!

 

[deerslayer]

I wish I wasn't broke as a joke, I'd snatch that up in a heartbeat

morning bump

 

[JonB]

Nate, you should check your PM

 

[natethegreat]

[RaySun2Be]

Mid-day bump. I'm in the same boat as deerslayer.

 

[natethegreat]

Sale pending!!

 

[natethegreat]

Thanks to all who looked/bumped

Glad It went to a TeAm-mate:thumbsup:

Thanks to all those who looked/bumped

Ahh that was the mbrd I hankered after

Still my A7N8X has served me well (4yrs 1mth so far!) ,even though it can't do the high FSBs the Abit v2 did.
Oh & my XPM 2500 runs @2.5GHz @1.68v ,can do 2.63GHz @1.75v,but it gets bloody hot!:Q
2.475GHz was good ,what vcore was that at?

BT
What did you run yours at?


Oh btw I'll be retiring mine very soon too (~1mth)
(I've turned this into a reminiscing thread)

I believe I was running mine somewhere around ~1.6v, I was going to check my settings before I shipped it off but I forgot. The ram didn't like to go any higher than 225:disgust: I know it easily out-folded my wifes HP with an XP 3200+ Hopefully my DFI/X2 will last as long as the ABIT/XP-M did

 

[Assimilator1]

Yeah that should server you well ,I'm going the C2D route myself ,hopefully I'll be able to go over 3GHz!

btw 225 FSB/RAM was damn high for a skt A rig ,my mbrd tops out at about 178-180FSB ,though I know some of my RAM can do ~230MHz.
Oh & 4yrs is the longest I've ever kept a mbrd in my main rig ,doubt I'll match that again!

Well the DFI/X2 Was bought in Dec '05 so there was no CD2 then

The NF7-S was the kids computer and it got a slight upgrade to s939 and a huge upgrade to pci-e graphics

I just updated all my rigs so check them out

 

[Assimilator1]

Err ,I thought the C2D was out last July?
Anyway ,not to worry the X2s are still good CPUs

So what have you got all of them overclocked to?

Yes the C2D was available in the summer of '06 I bought the X2 in Dec of '05

My rig is clocked to 260x10 @ 1:1

I got the wifes to go to 250x10 @ 1:1 but it gets really hot and I need it to be quiet. It's in the living room/dining room and makes a lot of noise so I just run it at 220x10

I just got the kid's rig re-assembled last night so I get to play with it this weekend and see what it can do

 

[Assimilator1]

Opps I missed that year thingie

2.6GHz is a nice o/c for your rig
So is your wifes rig in a small case then?

Let us know what you get out of that Ath64 3200 :evil:

Btw I just ran the X3 demo on my XPM today ,its too slow for the 2nd scene ,min 10FPS
Think I'll need the C2D for that!

Wife's cruncher is in an Ultra MicroFly

Here's what I got done with the Kids Cruncher

I'll finish the sleeve job eventually but my fingers have had enough for now And that stock cooling has got to go! The fan on that ATI card is terribly loud

 

[Assimilator1]

Yea definetly if you plan to overclock .

What grx card is that?
Very tidy btw

 

[natethegreat]

The GFX card s a JetWay X1600PRO 128MB, hopefully it's a decent performer.

Talk about reminiscing, My dad had me look at his Gateway 386 today to see if I could re-install DOS 6.0 on it!! It just doesn't want to proceed past boot-up Couldn't really figure out what was going on with it besides it being over 10 years old easily

 

[Assimilator1]

lol ,bloody hell that's an old rig!:Q
Tried reseating the RAM & graphics card?

At work we've got a 386 that runs DOS & the Sun alignment program!. (works fine except it needs updating for cars released over the past 4yrs!:roll: )
