F'd up my brand new X2-3800

Hmm.. so you reckon, if i contact AMD directly, they will take it, even now, even after the 2 pins have broken off? Even though, i am also in australia?

How do you suggest, cleaning the old thermal paste off of it?

Stressing My X2 3800+

Buddy, i would recommend, making sure your memory speeds are timings come all the way down... try a mem speed of 1/2, and set it to like 3-3-3-8 on a 2t comand rate.. and make sure your memory is running at something like 2.6volts. then try and bump up the speed in graduals.. I found my...

F'd up my brand new X2-3800

Seriously... AS5 stupid? I've put together countless computers over the years.. i mean, like a good 10yr period here easy.. I've had every problem, and i've always worked it out, one way or another, but the thing is, i like to think i know what i'm doing... Putting a cpu in, is an...

F'd up my brand new X2-3800

Hey man, seriously, big thanks.. I'm in Australia, though, and this is really my only machine, so i'm thinking there would be quite a wait on shipping to and from... but if i can't get anywhere.. i'll just take it on ther chin, and send it off... big thanks

F'd up my brand new X2-3800

Well to be quite true, the cpu came to me, with what i am almost convinced was 2 bent pins... I bent them back, and decided to give it a go, worked no probs.. then i went and took out the cpu to clean it (prep for AS5) and noticed a pin was missing... I packed it up all in the...

F'd up my brand new X2-3800

Thanks for the advice guys..... for the records though, i took the cpu out, so i could give it a good clean, take off all the old thermal pad crap... it actually dropped about 5degree's with the as5 on it... but regardless, the cpu was ok.. it was just how i sat it down in the packaging, when i...

F'd up my brand new X2-3800

OKies.. so i've been messing a bit with my cpu, and i took it out again today to put some AS5 on it, and as i'm cleaning the heatsink, i've rested the cpu on the fabric + plastic casing that the cpu actually comes in (the one inside the box) anyhoo, as i pick up the cpu, I find 2 pins have...

Weak memory controler on X2 3800

OK well thanks for the advice guys... I just wanted to make a point, that the "quick and dirty" overclocking method, really doesn't apply here, as the highest cpu speed, will not even come close to allowing you to run your memory at it's highest possible speed, because the on-die memory...

Weak memory controler on X2 3800

Yeah, I screwed up.. Meant to read: 220Mhz@ 2.5-3-2-5 -2T or 132.5MHZ@ 2-3-2-5 -1T

Weak memory controler on X2 3800

Do you know what we're talking about here? My whole point, was that I have tested the ram ok at (233LL) at lower CPU speeds without any problems. But as CPU speed increases the ram must run slower in order to accomidate for the faster CPU. Also, I never said it was 2,2,2,6, it was 2,3,2,2.

Weak memory controler on X2 3800

That was a type and meant to be 3. I have no idea what you meant by, "he other timings which would 6, its board specific about which it likes" are you implying the the other timings are all up to the boardboard and the ram and cpu have no effect on them?

Weak memory controler on X2 3800

Well that was pretty much my point... i was trying to get at.. when you start to stress the chip, it's memory controller starts to stutter and give problems... I.E. Even if your memory can do 300 at 2-2-2-2 1t 1:1 or whatever, if the chip is near it's limit, it will not be possible. And I...

Weak memory controler on X2 3800

Hi, i'm not sure about the rest of you guys, but what i''ve noticed, is that my X2 3800 has a pretty weak memory controller, espically with 2x1gig modules. I can say this, because I've been able to test the memory out on very low multi and have it come up flawless easily at 233 LL (1t CL2)...

X2 3800+

Here's as good thread dedicated to overclocing the x2's on an Aussie website... First page has a good overview of everyones success. Me personally, still testing my x2 3800, it seems that to oc it, i need to take the straing off the memory controler, because even though my mem can go...

Who here had the BH6 Celeron combo?

Lol... I was running one, up until about 2months ago.. I still remember, I bough a Cel366 (wasn't?) and tried to overclock it to 550, but it wouldn't go, so I returned it to the store and got a Cel400, (they had stopped making the 366's then) and I got the 400 to goto 500, in my BX6 R2...
