    OCZ EL Platinum won't run stable! Help!

    Thanks very much for your help:). I now have the voltage set at 2.8V, some GAT settings disabled (were on auto before) and cleaned up my wiring to improve airflow over the memory. It seems to be running fine at 2-3-2-5 now:).

    NB HS Question

    I'm about to replace my IC7-G's NB HS with the Zalman NB32J, so I removed the heatsink and promptly put it back on so that I could come here and ask about it. The 'chip' of the north bridge appears to be much smaller than I thought, with many smaller tiny bits sticking up around. The stock...

    OCZ EL Platinum won't run stable! Help!

    Thanks for the advice:). I'll try some of that stuff now:). Last night after I posted I ran a pass of memtest on 2-3-3-7 with 2.7V and it was fine (before I ran it unsuccessfully at 2.65V), so I ran it for 5 hours overnight without any trouble. I'd like to get it working to specs though:)...

    OCZ EL Platinum won't run stable! Help!

    Ok, I've just got the parts arrived and assembled for my new machine. Abit IC7-G, P4 2.8GHz C Processor, and 2x512MB OCZ EL Platinum PC3200 memory (along with other non-relevant parts). Flashed to latest BIOS (1.5), and started playing with memtest86. First I started out with SPD latency...

    kinda personal: Will You Vote For Bush?

    Reasons why you should not vote for Bush: -"Pax Americana", his publicly stated plan to situate the USA as some kind of global ruler (First related link I found, search google for more "pax americana" or similar). -Enacting policies that placed the US in ~$500 BILLION of deficit!!! -Support of...

    Benchmarks/Tests to run on Linux?

    AFAIK, most of the oft-used benchmarks and tests are for windows. Where can I get some linux benchmarks to test the results of overclocking? I'll need to, for example, determine whether a certain speed/timings combo is better or worst than the last, and stuff like that:). On a slightly...

    Good Virtual Machine Software for Linux?

    By "virtual machine" I mean a software program that will actually simulate a second computer inside the first. In my case, this would be for running Windows inside Linux for certain games without having to dual-boot, since I wouldn't want to shut down my linux server programs, etc. What...

    SATA Drive Jumpers? Huh?

    I just got two new Seagate Barracuda SATA 7200.7 160GB drives for a raid 0 array:D. They came OEM, so I have no way to figure out what the small horizontal row of 4 pins are, but they look very much like jumper pins. No jumpers are attached, however. I know what the SATA data and power...

    SATA vs ATA133?

    Your co-worker is correct, there will be small (if any) performance gains resulting from switching to SATA. However, there are other advantages that made me choose SATA: -not stressing PCI bus (in Canterwood anyway) -smaller cables for better airflow -the new standard that will be used in...

    How good is the Zalman NB32J NB HS?

    I'd like to overclock an IC7-G to ~250MHz FSB; would it be safe to replace the IC7-G's active HSF with the NB32J at those speeds with some decent case airflow? Or do I need something better? Anyone have experience with this kind of situation?

    Ultimate Case

    This one. A modded aluminum dragon case, very sleek and classy. I haven't gotten anything from them myself, so I can't vouch for them, but frozencpu.com seems to have a wide variety of very cool modded (and expensive) cases.

    PC3500: Corsair, OCZ, or Kingston?

    From what I've read it seems that OCZ memory really is faster than Corsair now, even though a few short months ago I remember otherwise:). I've ended up ordering 2x512MB modules of OCZ PC3200 EL Platinum Edition, which I figure at worst will run DDR400 at fast timings. I have a faint hope that...

    Are DVD readers all the same?

    Thanks everyone:). Since hearing your recommendations I've ran into lots of other positive reviews of the Toshiba drives while I was trying to find one at a Canadian store:). I have one on the way now, planning to try black vinyl dye on the faceplate:). These forums are great:).

    Lookin For a new printer

    I don't have a whole lot of printer experience, but I just ordered an HP PSC 2175 printer. HP's PSC (printer/scanner/copier) line is all pretty good. Hp has been known for a long time for making good printers. I chose the 2175 instead of the 2110 because the scanner is of much better quality...

    Linux compatible parts

    I don't know about modems, but any modern NIC should operate fine under Linux. If you're worried stick with the big names in NICS like Intel, 3com, D-Link, etc. I have a pair of D-Link NICs coming in soon and I'll be running exclusively under linux:).

    Positive, Negative, or Equal Air Pressure?

    Positive pressure would increase the density of the air inside the case. I could be wrong, but it seems to me as though this would increase the thermal energy required to raise the air temperature (the specific heat capacity of the air). That should allow the air to absorb more heat from your...

    Higher Voltage: More heat overclocking or not?

    I have a unique situation that I thought would be best figured out here. My dad is probably going to purchase a CPU intended to run at 1.8V (AMD K6III+), and a motherboard that only goes down to 2.0V (the guy selling doesn't know what model/manufacturer it is). The former owner was running the...

    North/south bridge air cooling and heatsinks where can i get?

    Note: Not to say that you can't put a HS on the SB, just that you're probably better off with a passive solution like Zalman's NB23J.

    North/south bridge air cooling and heatsinks where can i get?

    I'm not too experienced with overclocking, but it is my understanding that a HS on the SB is not really required because the SB doesn't heat up much even when you overclock. Of course this may depend on whether you have PCI/AGP locks in your bios since those run through the SB. But it's the NB...

    OCZ RELEASES PC4000 GOLD!

    Just to start up a conspiracy theory to make you worry about the new OCZ PC4000 512MB modules;): When examining all of the OCZ memory available to make my purchase, I noted that in the "Gold" department they have only 2x256MB and 4x256MB(for their 1GB kit). No 512MB modules of Gold have been...

    need new cd burner

    I have an PlexWriter Premium on the way, but I haven't figured out yet whether that GigaRec thing is based in hardware or software. I'll be exclusively running linux, so no idea if it'll work. All the other hardware features still make it an awesome drive though:).

    5900 Ultra- Price is no object

    This is from the gamepc review mentioned above, so you should check that out. After reading it myself a couple of days ago, I say you should go with either the Gainward or MSI (who include a huge software bundle). I found that the MSI boards are not as easy to find here in Canada, but I don't...

    Manufacturing of 5900FX Ultra Cards

    The thing is that I will exclusively be running under Linux, so I need to buy an nVidia card, because ATI linux support is very poor. I really wanted to get the 256MB (Ultra) version of the card because if I'm running my machine for 4-5 years, it will make a very large performance difference at...

    Manufacturing of 5900FX Ultra Cards

    High Quality Mouse Pads?

    I had been going to get a Ratpadz GS, but just read somewhere else that they wear out very quickly (ie. in a month). Does anybody here have a recommendation for a high-quality mouse pad? I'll be using an MX700 on it, and would like it to last for a long time (hopefully at least a couple of...

    2 Unrelated 2-speaker sets for 4.1?

    This might be a really stupid question, but here goes. I have a pair of speakers with a subwoofer. If I buy another pair of speakers of a different type/brand, can I combine them with my existing speakers to get 4.1 sound? This just occurred to me as a possibility since sound cards have...

    P3 mobo with Baby AT form factor?

    This is a question about older hardware, but I figure someone here must know:). My dad's looking to upgrade slightly, and is trying to figure out whether P3 mobos exist with a Baby AT form factor. He doesn't really want to replace the case & PSU for no reason. We know that P2 mobos (at least...

    PC3500: Corsair, OCZ, or Kingston?

    To add another question to my initial post, does OCZ sell 512MB modules of their oft-mentioned Gold PC3700 RAM? Getting half the RAM at a higher speed doesn't seem like a great deal to me:P.

    PC3500: Corsair, OCZ, or Kingston?

    I've read a lot of arguments over these three manufacturers' RAM, but I'm still unsure over one point. Does the OCZ and/or Kingston PC3500 actually overclock better than the Corsair, or do people recommend it because it's almost as good but cheaper? Can anyone rank these three in terms of...
