    Upgrading to VIA Kt266A board NEED OPINIONS

    All the 8KHA+ is an 8KHA with a KT266A NorthBridge. Nothing else. Not to say there is anything wrong with this board, I personally use it. The 8KHA+ was MainBoard of the year at http://www.hardocp.com"][H. Now, if I were in the marketplace for a new board today, I'd wait for tomorrow, when...

    Will a 550 MHz Celeron be able to run fanless?

    Gateway can get away with it up to their 950mhz celerys. Stability is compromised, though. Go to 1CoolPC.com and check out the silent heatsinks. I'd get one that was designed for passive-cooling beyond like a Pentium II. They have some very nice passive-cooling heatsinks. I never go stock...

    When's AMD's Newest CPU Due to Hit the Stores?

    Well, that replacement is due at the end of 2002 or beginning of 2003. The successor to the Athlon XP die is the Thoroughbred which is just a die shrink from .18mm to .13mm. It allows for faster speeds. No architectural changes/enhancements are in it, just a die shrink. May be better for...

    Which is the best KT333 motherboard?

    From the review, the EPoX and the GigaByte take the lead in performance, however, the EPoX is a little cheaper. Since you don't like RAID, maybe this will change your mind. Having RAID is a good thing, if you have at least: 1 hard drive, 1 dvd-rom/cd-rom and 1 cd-rw. Having drives on seperate...

    350w or 400w for this system?

    The 430w won't be any noisier than the 350w. Just go with the 350w. That's my standard for building PCs when I sell them to people. Of coruse my PCs are Athlons, not P4s. If you have extra $$$ go with the 430w. It may be overkill though, plus when the Pentium 5 comes out in a few years, it...

    computer wont work!!!

    First off, who is your MoBo manufacturer, may want to steer clear of them. Second, go to newegg.com and click on online RMA request, or just call newegg. calling usually isn't any faster than the online thing, but if you're new to this, then you may want to speak live to a human being. Go...

    How long will a CPU live?

    I get scared when my temps go above 105 degrees F, but that's only cuz i got an ALPHA PAL 8045T. Anything in the 130 degrees range should cause concern, though 120 degree F range is nice, as is 11x range. Basically, get really worried if it reaches 150 degrees. AMD says that their processors...

    Liteon 40X Review

    Don't Expect any notable speed increases for at least a year. 40x is pushing the ATA/33 standard considering the state of most "common" PCs. 48x-52x is about as fast as they'll go until serial ATA or CD-ROMs start to support ATA/133/100/66. My personal opinion is that 52x is very fast. What...

    HELP!!! Computer NO POST, NO VIDEO SIGNAL!

    This sounds so much like a mis-mounted heatsink. is it one that screws down? if so, your washers may be limiting the contact with the board. it may be too late to resuce the processor.

    Help! Connecting CPU fan to Epox mobo

    If you are having such trouble, you may want to get the bare leads preinstalled with "tailed" Molex connecters. Molex connectors are the power connecters that come right off of the Powersupply cord. They connect and power various devices such as Hard Drives, CD-Rom drives and the like. Make...

    Is Crucial RAM Quality Going Down?

    Seriously, regardless of the tech slump, Crucial RAM quality is going down the tubes. Are any of you experiencing bad RAM?? I think the reason why Crucial RAM prices are going up is that they are experiencing too many returns, along with increased demand. Please post, I think I'm not the only...

    Will Crucial Ever offer PC 2700

    OK. I know Micron is getting burned cause of their bad PC decisions and not offering RDRAM, but please tell me that the'll at least start offering PC 2700 for those of us with fast Mobos. I mean, common, it's not that hard. Or, are they just gonna stick to PC 2100 cause the P4 is now...

    Western Digital or Maxtor for 7200 RPM drive?

    I stay away from Maxtor. Had 3 drives short out on me while taking extreme precautions. Never had an IBM nor WD ever fail. I have seen beat up 8 or 9 year old WDs run just fine. I personally use a WD.

    Mouse Suggestions for my dad? He's got Parkinsons and randomly clicks the buttons.

    Man, sorry to hear bout that. Well, they say where they're's a will, their's a way. One way is using your foot, but that is very unreliable. Another way is to have him use a big mouse and to have him grip it from the sides then have him move his fingers to the button. It's all in the...

    ATI RADEON 7500 64MB DDR vs. Geforce 3 Ti200 64M DDR

    Geforce 3 ti 200. O/C it to ti 500 specs. Otherwise, the 7500 is a fine choice, though the drivers are a bit dated.

    MY COMPUTER CAUGHT FIRE!!!

    Yeah, this whole thing is a bunch of bullshit. Yeah, it's AMD's fault that you spilled water over your plugged in mobo. Why would spilling water over your mobo be AMD's fault. And what, Intel has some sort of water-protection shield that goes over anything that it touches, therefore stopping...

    a replacement for a Crispy T-Bird?

    With that kind of heatsink, go for the best performance/price combo from AMD. Get like an 1800+ or 1700+ cause you can easily overclock it past 1900+ when you unlock the multiplier.

    Is AMD Closing it's Doors on Multiplier Settings??

    This article on Tom'sHardware.comkinda sickens me. Why? They couldn't unlock the multiplier. I don't care if it performs better than a Celeron. I want to overclock. Oh well, if they don't do anything to the Athlon line, I guess it's OK, but why??? I knew in the back of my head that AMD...

    List of mobos to choose from!!!! help!

    EPOX EP-8KHA+ Go for it. Rock-solid reliability, excellent overclocking if your heart desires. Built over 100 machines with it over ebay. It's a great board. Using it right now to type this in!

    recommend mobo for AthlonXP 2000+

    Wait for the EPoX 8KHA2 if you can. It will be a sure-fire kick-ass board when it comes out. One of the major flaws in the VIA KT266A boards is that it can be retrofitted into an existing board with a KT266 Northbridge. It works out well, though designing a totally new board for this chipset...

    Where's the Current Sweet Spot for AMD CPUs???

    You can expect more - about 400 mhz tops for pretty good stability, though you will have to do 'plastic sergury' (unlock the multiplier). You have to have a good board (EPoX 8KHA+ coupled with an Alpha 8045)

    Most overclockable Athlon motherboard

    The best for overclocking??? The EPoX 8K7A because of reliable jumper settings and 2.10 v-core for the CPU. Best in performance...8KHA+ Though I think that the all new EPoX 8KHA2 will top that. (hasn't been released yet)

    Anyone else notice that Epox's US website has been down for a week? DOH!! I just ordered the 8KHA, have question

    Server matenince. Though it should have been done by now...EPoX is going mainstreem so they are going to make their site more up to the levels of MSI and ASUS. They have been underground until the 8k7a showed up. Now it's hit after hit. Servers have been bogged down. Should be up soon!

    RMA'ing my asus a7v133

    Where did you get it from? If it's over 30 days, chances are you're screwed. ASUS is OK with RMAing from my standpoint, though I use EPoX more than ASUS. Check your vendor's return policy. That's a start. If you bought it at a RETAIL STORE, you should need a receipt. At best Retail Stores...

    Attention EPOX 8KHA+ owners. Please do me a favor.
