    P4 1600A @ 2.4ghz temps, good? bad?

    I forgot what I used to get with the stock at 2.4ghz, but I think it was a lot lower than 44/60 idle/load. I think that's really high? Anyone else? Anyway, I replaced the heatsink and the fan. The fan is sucking air away from the HS, is that right? Anyway, I'm running this: Asus P4533B-V mobo...

    Vantec Tornado and TT fan RPM adjuster

    I have a this really loud fan and a ThermalTake RPM adjuster I just bought. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work. I plugged everything right, I know, because I checked four or five times. Anyone else have this problem?

    Vantec Tornado and TT HML RPM Setter

    I bought a Thermaltake RPM fan speed setter for my vaccuum cleaner (Vantec Tornado). I plugged the tornado in, I plugged the setter in, and I plugged the fan into the setter. When I go to adjust it though, it doesn't work. Anyone else have this problem?

    nVidia Detanator 40 drivers and Counter-strike

    OpenGL does look better but caps at 60FPS. This is probably because my monitor's max refresh is 60hz. I'm almost positive it can go higher but Envision's website is down and I can't get any drivers for the monitor. ::frown:: Anyway, I'm probably gonna just stick with rollback drivers, because it...

    nVidia Detanator 40 drivers and Counter-strike

    I'm sure, someone out here plays counter-strike. I think these new drivers conflict horribly with the Direct3d on it. I get about 25% more lag and about 25 fps vs the 99 I usually get. Bad nVidia Bad! Anyone knows how to fix this? I rolled back, but I really would like to use the 40s.

    P4 Retail Fan, how loud is it?

    Recently I bought an Thermalright AX-478 for my Pentium 4 1.6aghz and then mounted a Vantec Tornado on it. Big mistake, I could hear that outside my house and down the street (okay so I'm exaggerating a little). Anyway, I just slapped on the retail HSF and used it to overclock, it worked fine...

    1.6a Asus p4b533-v mobo questions on ocing

    Alright, my first time overclocking and I ran into some troubles. -Using the stock HSF, I realized that the fan blows on the heatsink and does not draw it away. Did I read wrong or is optimal cooling with the fan drawing heat away from the heatsink. -Bumped the vCore to 1.625 and it is...

    Latest shipments of neweggs 1.6a results?

    Thanks Thugsrook, you always give me some hope. Anyway, you only run 1:1 right now right? I think you've answered a bunch of my questions about RAM OCing. Anyway, I have the P4B533-V board so if I get a speed like that, I should try and run 4:5 to boost DDR speed? That's how it works right?

    Latest shipments of neweggs 1.6a results?

    When I look to OC, I read stuff from ya'll. Okay, I got a Costa Rica(didn't know Intel made stuff there) 3/27/02 from googlegear.com (I ordered it like last week). Since I heard newer is better, someone tell me what to expect from this baby. I can take bad news so lay it out. :(

    Pack Date? What's this nonsense.

    Haha thanks, I hit the refresh button and then went to look at my box and found it. 3/27/02... I'm guessing that's a shitty processor.

    Pack Date? What's this nonsense.

    Sup forum browsers. I've got numerous questions and I keep posting, thanks for your patience and help. I recieved a P4 1.6a Retail and tried to locate this "pack date." Well first of all, it isn't at all from Malaysia, its from Costa Rica. And second of all, there's no date on my CPU. Just...

    AX-7, AX-7. What about the AX-478?!

    Well, I got one of these because they say that the AX-7 performs really well with Athlons and it is the same design fitted for Socket-478. Anyone have any experiences with these? Installation problems or ease, increase/decrease over stock Intel HSF, or just plain any comment on it. I bought one...

    Real? Samsung RAM need identifying.

    Oh wow, you mean 181.5mhz DDR as in DDR463? Hehe, well yea, I'm guessing you don't mean it the other way. That's a real good overclock. I'm got some heat spreaders for that thing too, maybe that'll help. Anyway, thanks for the light at the end of the tunnel. I can overclock in peace now.

    Real? Samsung RAM need identifying.

    Okay, I recently purchased from L-buy.com and the only review I got for the company was a positive one about good Kingston RAM so I decided they probably dealed real Samsung 512mb DDR PC2700. Also, I looked it up on pricewatch.com as "Samsung True PC2700 512mb" as keywords and L-buy was one of...

    >With no RAM burn (Samsung True 512mb PC2700), no CPU burn (if there is such thing), straight out of a box, new board, new cpu, how fast are you able to push this CPU without it frying? I've heard 2.1-2.4ghz right out of the box with a stock HSF. I'm going to be running this thing on a...

    Chieftec Aluminum Cases with window in stock now at Newegg $129 + $18 shipping

    Out of stock 6/19, ETA 6/21, I used the auto-notify on the newegg item catalog. Sure enough, 2am in the morning on 6/21 I got an email. Hehe, newegg is tight, 129.99 + 18 s/h is pretty decent deal. The PSU is probably a piece of junk, but I should be getting the case tomorrow, I'll post then...

    Are aluminum cases really worth it?

    I have a Chieftec coming in pretty soon. It's a yellow (Antec SX1040 model), aluminum model with a side panel with a large acryllic window. It was $129.99 at newegg.com with a Turbolink 420watt powersupply. Weighing in at a supposed 18lbs (haven't received the case yet), it's the same as the...

    Cambridge Megaworks 510D vs. Klipsch Promedia 5.1

    I heard the Logitech z560's next to a pair of Cambridge 4.1 4300s (the cheap $40 5-piece). To me the Logitechs are better, with the awesome satellites and refrigerator-sized subwoofer (okay so I exaggerated a bit). But the difference (to me) isn't worth the $110 difference. I'm getting a...

    googlegear.com = bad service?

    Yes, I've read stuff on resellerratings and bizrate on Googlegear.com. However, since I did order my 1.6a from them, I was kind of panicking when I heard the 'horror' stories from their customers. Well, lets put it this way. I went to every other company I ordered from and they all had the same...

    Questions about P4 1.6A Overclocking and cooling

    A lot of people use Arctic Silver and some fancy cooling setup with an Alpha heatsink and some 80mm fan. I've heard good things about the stock HSF though. My system is going to be almost identical to yours except I'm getting the V version of your board. Go LiteOn! Anyway, I'm goin to use a...

    **OFFICIAL** Abit BG7 (i845G) Thread

    Actually, in concordance with Lance, I had the same question. If you have the money, is it worth buying a 1.8a instead of a 1.6a? I have a couple more questions too: 1.)What kind of HSF do you guys use? 2.)Is the Asus P4B533-VM and P4B533-V different motherboards? You guys talk about 6PCI slots...

    The gf4 ti4400 is worth the extra $30 over the ti4200 if you're looking for 128mb cards. Else it's the TI4200 64mb

    I'll be getting a Ti4400 soon. I was planning on going low budget, but with twice the RAM and overclockability to a Ti4600+, the Ti4400 is a value bargain. If you're going to go for GeForce4 and planning to spend 180-200 bucks, you might as well pay a little extra to get a Ti4400 which is about...

    What is your favorite HSF setup for 1.6A overclocking?

    Post your opinions here, and some facts too if you have 'em. I've heard a lot about ThermalTakes Volcano 7+ and an Alpha Pal HS with a Vantec fan helping the 1.6A OC to 2.6ghz+. Any others?

    I know I don't have a choice, but are newer chips more stable than older ones? Btw, I'm probably going to get a GigaByte GA-8IRXP instead of an Asus P4S333. It seems like the GigaByte has more options for overclocking but most people prefer the Asus board. Why is that? Anyway, here's my system's...

    Alright, I read a couple articles on this 1.6A madness. One said that newer chips will be harder to OC. However, reading up on these forums, ya'll say that newer chips will clock better. Just confused and curious as to which one will work better. Btw, which mobo seems to be more popular for the...

    RAM Choice?

    I'm building a computer with an Athlon 2100+ on a MSI Ultra-ARU mobo. I've heard that two types of RAM overclock real well. One was the Mushkin PC2100 L2 2-2-2 512mb strip and the other was the Samsung Original PC2700. I'm not too familiar with overclocking RAM and have little knowledge of those...

    Probs with Athlon and Volcano 7+?

    I recently went to a PCclub and asked to see a Volcano 7+. When I got it, the guy told me that he had users experience problems with Volcano 7+s and Athlon chips. He said something to the effect of a small die making the large heatsink slip off or something like that. I'm sure with careful...
