The main difference is that the turion is more energy efficient, meaning longer battery life and less heat. But besides the energy savings, the athlon 64 x2 and the turion 64 x2 are similiar.
If you can't get yours to overclock, I would first try lowering the HTT to 3x, bumping the vcore to 1.5v or 1.55v. Then finally try lowering the memory to 133. Right now my setup is stable at 10x250 also...
I am using the Biostar bios, and used Award's winflash to do so. I am using an Arctic cooling freezer pro 64, and get about 40c idle. I haven't tested for stability, which I think will be at 2.5ghz...
Since you mentioned that it is an old system, it really depends on what she uses this computer for. If she basically surfs the web and check's her email, I doubt that she'll notice. If she is a gamer (plays Doom 3 or HL2 etc.), then there might be a perceivable difference. But I am guessing...
Wow $10 price drop within a day. I guess with the new rev. E coming out, prices will begin to drop even further. To bad the price of the 3200 doesn't drop as often as the 3000.
I picked up the SLK1650B a couple days ago at a Frys B&M. And my impressions are that this is one quality case especially for the price ( $25/AR plus tax). Usually when I build a PC using those cheap cases, I some how end up with a cut or a scrape. But with Antec I can't remember when I...
Another thing that can be hindering your Overclocking could be your power supply. What brand is your power supply? You can try loosening your memory timings, to something really slow like 3-5-5-13. Just to make sure that your memory is not the culprit.
Yes, it looks exactly like the one at comp geeks. Regarding the quality of this case, I would recommend using it only for storage and not for every day use. The case is not very sturdy and cannot take a beating. Another thing is that you'll have to go through every page and remove the excess...
Regarding the 1600n, I also got in a couple weeks ago when the printers were 50% off. For $215 shipped I got to say that it is a really good price. The text is extremely crisp and clear, and most importantly it is a laser printer. Most all-in-one laser printers usually cost around $300 or...
I can't tell from the picture, but is there a headphone jack on one of the satellites? Also is there is nob for the volume control on the satellites or is it that nob on the sub? I would hate to reach under my desk to control the volume, and the head phone jack is nice when you are listening...
Yea, let us know if you are able to get the $15 dollar deal at another local blockbuster store. Not sure if the computers are linked to see if you are a first time member or not.
This past weekened I switched the loud fan in my PSU to a L1A (made in Japan). The noise did decrease a little but not that much, because I could still hear the sound of air being moved. So what I did was cut out the stamped grill on the PSU and wired the L1A to 7v. What a difference it made...
