After re-reading what drewdogg808 said; it seems that after setting the divider all devices (PCI) should work OK since they are working at 33 meg.
My next question is: On my motherboard I set the timing of the memory to auto which the bios will set to 333 (166x2=333 since DDR memory is double...
drewdagg808 -- you have a way with words and your explination is very good. I surmized that FSB speeds should be a multiple of 33 as over the years FSB has risen by 33 megs each time. Note that multiply is the inverse of divide -- so we are still talking about the same thing from different...
Got a new MSI KT4 Ultra and tried out "Fussy Logic" that came with it. It got up to FSB of 168 when I halted it before something went wrong. It was running @ 1764 and temps had only risen about 2 1/2 degrees C. Now doubt -- this is a great overclock. (364 meg O/C)
My questions are: what is the...
Does any one know how well Zalman's NB32J works? It looks as if would be very effective due to large fin area. Any comments would be appreciated!!
Thanks in advance! Gene
NO!! Agree with Jjjnn; you have about as good a HS as money can buy. It would cost you $39 + shipping to get a SLK-800 from Newegg to lower temps by only one to two degrees!!!!
First of all; is your HS mounted properly using a good thermal compound such as Artic Silver II or III? Next think of...
Thanks for the response; each had very good information. I enjoyed the one about building a heat pipe. By having the fan outside the case could be the wave of the future.
I will wait for futher developments before making the jump.
FYI got to overclockers.com and click on "ratings of water and...
Don't find any articles or discussion about heat pipes. Are they any good? Do you know of any reviews or forums? Heat pipe principles sounds like a very good way get away from noisy fans and still have good cooling. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks Gene
Most case exhaust holes are 80mm. To check; there are 4 mounting holes surounding hole. Check the closest distance between holes (not diameter). If it is about 2 inches (51mm) between centers of mounting holes; this is a 60mm hole. If it is about 2 3/4 inches (71mm) this is a 80mm hole. If it...
The Tbird 1.4 is the hottest runing CPU AMD makes. It produces 73 watts when running under full load. If you O/C it; it will be much higher!!
Because of the heat issue; you need the very best HS and fan combination. A 60mm fan is just too noisy to be considered. If a PAL 8045 will fit your...
Rippsnort, I had a 1.4 Tbird with CAK38; which damn near run me crazy. There are two things that will help get the noise to a more acceptable level. First, slow down the fan with either a rheostat or a resistor in 12 volt line. I found that 5 ohms slowed fan from 6800 to 6200. This helped. Next...
In response to elw00blues's question. There are no vibrations in my case. The reason is that I have a large, heavy, well built Inwin Q500 case.
All my fans have rheostats including HS. I am able to isolate each fan and "tune" in each fan to max RPM with noise level reasonable. The large 92mm fan...
db is a term of loudness. However the pitch is what is objectionable. Little 60mm fans turn a higher RPM and pitch are compaired to jet engines. I have a 92mm fan rated @ 35 db (same db as yours) which emits a low rumble which is not at all objectionable. Note I quoted figures that manufacturer...
The last several answers to this thread are nothing but an intellegent person who demands that the exact truth be told; is irratated by person with their own agenda who will take "liberties" to achieve that goal and the real truth be damned!!
Study the replies and you will know who is whom...
I would like to congratulate and complement SWScorch on his two well written replies on this thread. Gramaticaly the English was near perfect and the reasoning was well thought out and easily understandable.
I only wish my replies were that good. Keep up the good work!!!
You temps are OK. I find that case usually runs 5C over room and CPU is another 10C more. Most people will agree that above statements are "in the ball park." I sometimes get a larger spread. Look at your temps; they generally fall in this range. Your problem is room temps are high due to no air...
