Mysteries behind AMD approved power supply list? Time for another Anandtech PS roundup?

Great idea! I agree 1000%. I have an Aopen KF45A case with 250W Component Pro PS which is NOT on the AMD list. I think mine is ATX 2.01. AMD shows an approved Aopen PS (for Athlons up to 1GHz) which is ATX 2.03. What's the difference? How many watts do you really need for a 1.0/1.1/1.2 GHz...

2 DIMMs is better than 1 DIMM, lost circuits article

Yeah, but you have to admit that those Mushkin 256MB modules are pretty nice: << the DIMMs worked flawlessly at 2:2:2 settings up to 160 MHz (memory bus frequency). >> The 128MB rev.3 modules may do 166MHz or more which may be nice if you are overclocking a 133MHz "EB" CPU but if...

Anyone using this board & RAM combo? I am a bit concerned that the Soyo default IO voltage of 3.5v may be a bit high for this RAM. I don't know how fussy the Soyo board is with different types of RAM. Please relate any experiences with this setup. Thanks.

Please help me OC...

Thanks. Sounds logical. First up the voltage. I assume that this wil raise the temp. How hot is acceptable? If this doesn't give me a stable 840MHz then I'll start to think about a different CPU.

Please excuse my ignorance. Do you have to buy Half-Life to run Counterstrike? Do you buy Counterstrike or just download it? Is it an add-on or a separate game? Thanks

Is my GeForce dying?

Thanks mastertech01, The 6.31 drivers are "release" so I don't think I can blame them. I reduced my FSB speed to stock 100MHz and successfully ran games & directx so I guess overclocking was the culprit. My PIII700 cA2 is wearing out after 6 months @ 115% rated speed! I wasn't...

How to upgrade this system?

Thanks for the suggestions. I believe I may as well keep it as is rather than get an i815E board. My cA2 won't O/C past 820. When the price of a PIII800 drops below C$250, I may get one and a PEP66 or try to push my PIII700 farther. It will probably take months for the 760 chipset to get...

So you got a great deal or those part fell off the truck or whatever. Just sell that crap and use the money to build something interesting like dual PIII 700 cB0s (OC to 931) on a VIA133A. Dell charges $480 for a 128MB RDRAM upgrade on their 1Ghz system. I see them online in Toronto for about...

Where can I read up on memory tweaks and/or get an app to tweak? I can't understand how to use H. Oda's WPCREDIT or WPCRSET or even whether they are meant for the BX chipset. I have a Soyo 6BA+IV so I am limited to the system bios unless I can find another utility. Thanks
