a8n-sli "premium" edition

I was gonna get a Premium instead of a Deluxe, but I think it's maybe better to stick with a semi decent overclock for now (which more than serves me well), and see how Crossfire fairs...

San Diego 3700+ in stock anywhere in Europe?

:( What about the 4000 SD? Anywhere in EU? Basically I'm going into hospital for an op on Weds night, and I want to finish my system before then :(

*Semi-Official* San Diego OC Results thread

If anyone is going to run one on a A8N-SLi Deluxe please please try on an older BIOS before a new one to see if it posts :)

A8N-SLi Deluxe & San Diego 3700+

I gave Asus a ring to ask, but they did not seem to know for sure :| My main problem is I do not have any other Socket 939 CPU at hand, so if it does not post, I may be stuck, unless I can "borrow" my friends CPU :-P

San Diego 3700+ Benchmarks Anywhere?

I'd be happy with anything over 2.6ghz personally, FX55 speed or more would be most excellent, and with intensive encoding (tests should use Lame 3.90.3 (Dilbert Compile) with --alt-preset standard command line as it is much more intensive than just using the nwest Lame and any cmd line, that...

Is Asus Great??

I used to use Abit years ago, but I had nothing but trouble with them afterwards, so I switched to Asus, mainly due the many features on offer. I chose the A8N-SLi Deluxe for my setup, due to the 8 SATA slots, and for me, the best mix of PCi, PCi-E etc slots.

San Diego 3700+ Benchmarks Anywhere?

Thanks for the reply :) The thing is, the Venice 3800+ is clocked at 2.4ghz, as opposed to 2.2ghz for the SD. I guess if the SD OC's well, which judging by early results it does, then it's the better choice, FX5x performance for a far cheaper price! I'd like to see benchmarks of a Stock...

A8N-SLi Deluxe & San Diego 3700+

Hi, I read on the Asus website that the 1007 bios is required for this CPU to be supported. Does this mean if I have a board with an older BIOS, putting in a San Diego will result in the PC not booting, or will it boot, just not being able to recognise the CPU? Thanks.

San Diego 3700+ Benchmarks Anywhere?

I did see one review at a German site, but I do not care about SuperPi scores nor any Game Benchmark app like Aquamark etc, I want to know how it performs in real life tasks like encoding MP3 and encoding video to XViD :-P I am more inclined on the San Diego to be honest too, I wonder what it...

San Diego 3700+ Benchmarks Anywhere?

Hi all, I currently have every part for my new computer, bar the CPU. I am unsure wether to purchase a AMD Athlon 64 3800+ Venice Core or a 3700+ San Diego. The cache is really tempting, and the possiblity of reaching FX5x speeds. I believe the extra cache will work wonders in...
