    Dell S2740L Removed glass facia to reduce reflections

    I have been using a Dell S2740L for a few weeks now and it has many merits but there is one issue I have with it where it is far too reflective. There is a company that makes filters for that which I have not tried but instead I noticed just running my fingernail along the edge that the glass...

    ASRock A785GXH/128 Fails to boot after changing Overclock Mode (stock frequency)

    I'm guessing you're running with 4x2GB sticks as well if this motherboard has caught your eye from an upgrade perspective. If I'm wrong though, and you are running 2x2GB, you can overclock higher. I didn't play with it too much with 2 sticks because I wasn't interested in the end result for...

    ASRock A785GXH/128 Fails to boot after changing Overclock Mode (stock frequency)

    Considering the cost, it has been a decent motherboard to date. I purchased it mostly for the DDR2/Thuban compatibility, power consumption, and pci-e lane allocation. My intention was to purchase a new video card (16x slot) and use my existing 8800GTS 512 (4x) for PhysX which I probably will...

    ASRock A785GXH/128 Fails to boot after changing Overclock Mode (stock frequency)

    Narrowed it down to a dying power supply. Using an Antec Earthwatts 500 from a Sonata II case and its stable once again. Fluctuations weren't evident using a normal volt meter or on board monitoring.

    ASRock A785GXH/128 Fails to boot after changing Overclock Mode (stock frequency)

    Hi, I believe this belongs more in this forum (motherboard) although correct me if I'm wrong. Currently my ASRock A785GXH/128 fails to boot and intermittently post if I change the Overclock mode from anything else than normal, even if the frequencies are left at or below stock. I...

    Phenom/Barcelona L3 Disabled Benchmarks?

    You would almost think that people would be trying that with their current Phenoms and reporting the impact. Currently I cant get my hands on one to test it out. Even if I could, I'ld have to buy another motherboard/ram to support it. A 2.4ghz Phenom for $200 w/no L3 may not just be my dream...

    Tyan Tomkat K8E (S2865) Overclocking

    I hope you're taking it in babysteps, ie boosting it 5mhz at a time, benchmarking/stability testing as you go. Benchmarking can be incredibly useful as when you can notice when your results start to drop long before you often see stability issues. Its because your system is compensating for...

    Tyan Tomkat K8E (S2865) Overclocking

    I do not know the specifics of that motherboard but I believe you're going to hit the bus limitation of those chips. You should keep the HTT Close to stock, ie 1000mhz, or 200x5. If you boost the HTT to 250, then its 250x5, which is 1250. Try reducing the multiplier if you can in the bios to...

    Phenom/Barcelona L3 Disabled Benchmarks?

    Seems peculiar to me as well. As I recall most of the K8 chips did not benefit greatly from L2 cache due to the low latency/high bandwidth hypertransport bus & integrated memory controller. I figured that being on the same die,using the same bus alone they would scale quite well without the...

    Phenom/Barcelona L3 Disabled Benchmarks?

    Has anyone managed to find any benchmarks of a Phenom or Barcelona compared to the same configuration with the L3 cache disabled? I'm really curious what sort of performance benefit if any is provided in real world applications, more so in the gaming/encoding and perhaps maya. This is mostly...

    Asus A8R32-MVP Deluxe 4xDIMM oc'ing and RAID array migration

    I would like to extract the most performance possible, but I'm as concerned about increased latencies or lower memory speeds, more so whether it will affect my maximum HT overclocks, and therefor CPU overclock. Since I have a fairly low multiplier (9) on my opteron 165, I do not want to go any...

    Asus A8R32-MVP Deluxe 4xDIMM oc'ing and RAID array migration

    Hi, I currently have an ASRock 939Dual-SATA2 that I am planning on replacing with an Asus A8R32-MVP Deluxe. My first question is, does anyone have their or other's typical overclocks with all 4dimms populated(assuming it would be CMD-1T)? So far, nearly every review site only reviews the...

    Bad framerates in World of Warcraft and other games... what gives?

    Not the ultimate problem, for V-sync it can be enabled not only in-game, but also in your display settings and 3d settings as well(depending on drivers sometimes differing for ogl/d3d, also some have profile managers for each game). I don't have any nvidia installations here right now, so I...

    Bad framerates in World of Warcraft and other games... what gives?

    Often people have troubles when they start pushing their memory to its limits that their games are starting to run slower, in your case I find that highly doubtful. Can you get the peak or max temperatures for your cpu/video? Speedfan should work for the CPU atleast. If you can get your...

    Speaker suggestions for home theatre

    SI-97 fanless on 600mhz cpu?

    Checkout the CNPS 6000. The fin style is more appropriate for passive cooling. Without going fanless you may want to try the cooler si97 with a really quiet fan, which in my opinion would be your best bet. the si97 mated with a Nexus 80mm or 92mm would be virtually silent. Much better...

    SI-97 fanless on 600mhz cpu?

    Depending on the airflow/temperature/etc in the case as well as longterm load, it may suffice. IE if your case temperature is 50C and you have 100CFM airflow without the current fan around the cpu socket, that probably will still cause problems for your chip. Contrary to that, if your case...

    Tuniq Tower 120 over Zalman 9500?

    Sadly, the case appears to be almost the same height as the Tuniq Tower, which does not leave enough room for the motherboard, mounting, and cpu. Can anyone suggest another cooler? I may still grab a Tuniq for my soon-to-be gaming machine(waiting for an E4300)

    Tuniq Tower 120 over Zalman 9500?

    Not sure how useful the stepping would be, but the revision is: JH9-E6 last time i checked in CPU-Z(ID).. not sure how common that is... I'm pretty sure I could reach higher in an open air environement on stock, however considering its all packed tightly in this case... and I do not...

    Hi, I currently have an opteron 165 @2.4ghz mated to a Zalman 9500 in a HD-160 case. It has been running for quite some time (I dont shut it down at night, usually running for a few weeks before an update or something else requires a reboot) and I would like to improve on its cooling...

    What are the best overclocking CPU's of all time?

    The mobile bartons to ~ 2.7ghz i think were common.. I got stuck at 2621 with massive heat problems :S Could hit 2.7 on a cold day being prime+8hr gaming stable. Needed a better radiator setup, but was running with "quiet" fans... Funny, 3 or 4 years later i'm still stuck at a 18xxmhz ~...

    Power PC

    Oh the biggy comes obvious from the name, RISC is more geared towards specific tasks to accomplish those with less overhead (reduced) while CISC is more of a generic able to do more (complex). Most people consider their computer "general purpose" asides from those email-only folk. They're...

    Power PC

    RISC Chips are far cheaper (usually much lower transistor count) and Power PC is basically the leader for providing solutions for integrators to shove into consumer products with those sorts of performance requirements. Consoles are almost expected to have the "toaster/appliance" effect, turn...

    Good Upgrade from an Athlon XP w/o Sacrificing AGP and DDR

    His x950Pro is AGP, so it would make no difference on his current card, however as a future upgrade path, it may have an ever so slight bearing. I cannot find the benchmarks from before, but there was a comparison of an x1900XT on both this board and a similar ASRock board with a true 16x PCI-E...

    Good Upgrade from an Athlon XP w/o Sacrificing AGP and DDR

    Basically there are two recommendations I can make in that department: ASRock 775Dual-VSTA (cannot remmeber if the PCI-E is 16x electrically, although it should make virtually no difference) ASRock 939Dual-SATA2 The first option is far more future proof, and you should be able to get...

    Which is faster 2xXeon 2.0ghz or Pentium D 805 as a server?

    The Xeon 2.0 is indeed using DDR at a measely 266mhz over the default 533mhz bus compared to the dual channel DDR2 at 533 over the 800mhz bus. However, you did get me to double check the specs I posted, the Xeons are 512k L2(no L3), versus the 1MB/core on the 805. Granted, there are...

Soon I plan on rolling out windows 2003 on both servers primarily for shadow copy to handle the small "whoopsies" when I...

    Any motherboard with dimms at the top edge?

    Hi. Thanks, that's definetly something I will consider. I may get it as an interim board (6months?) until I upgrade my whole system. I will be diving through all the reviews in the meantime, if there are any other options out there I would like to hear about them as well.

    Any motherboard with dimms at the top edge?

    Hi. Currently I have a Zalman HD-160 case and so far I am fairly happy with it, however I am looking to improve on the overall cooling by finding some components to re-arrange the airflow, notably the motherboard. How it is situated right now, the intake for the CPU fan is about 1cm from the...
