Enermax fan controller

I have an Enermax UC-A5FATR2 fan/temp controller. It has the capacity to monitor six fans and has two temp probes. The readout shows the two temps and two fan speeds. I love how I can watch temps go up and down as I use the computer. I'm not really a control freak, just like to see what's...

Prime95 or ??

I just started o/c my new system and I heard that Prime95 is the best way to stress it to verify that it is stable. I am looking for a quick test that I can run and get a pretty good idea in 10-15 minutes. Would that be Prime95 or something else?

*** Official Gigabyte 8KNXP/Ultra (875P) Thread ***

Wurrmm - I too would like to hear of how high of an overclock users of the 8KNXP boards are getting. One guy on Hard forum had all the right parts for a really good overclock, but could not go higher than 220 fsb using the Gigabyte. I would like to get either the Gigabyte or Abit. Right now...

*** Official Gigabyte 8KNXP/Ultra (875P) Thread ***

I was looking at the Abit IC7-G, but with the bios problems, I am considering the 8KNXP (non ultra). Has anyone compared the two and has anyone had the memory timing issues mentioned with the Abit problem? I am also interested in knowing how high the 8KNXP has been overclocked using an 800...

*** Official ABIT IC7/G (875P) Thread ***

I would like to see a shootout between the Asus, Abit, Gigabyte, Aopen, Epox, and MSI. One comparison I'd like to also see is stock settings, then increase FSB until they max out, then increase vcore, timings, and all the other things (stock HSF for both) until you max out again. Report at...

*4-17-2003 UDPATE* First Reviews Ready. Intel 865/875 (Springdale/Canterwood)

Like a lot of others, I am planning to upgrade to an i875 system. I do have a question about memory speed. The boards are DDR400 (PC3200) and I see that some are going to use up to PC3700 for overclocking. Is this really needed with the synchronous and asynch settings? See the reasoning...

Excelsior - Nice link to all the Canterwoods. Anybody else notice that only Abit and Gigabyte have fans on the NB. Is the lack of a fan going to be a problem for overclocking?

Canterwood question

I have considered that the 2 sticks of 512MB would leave more room for expansion, but I would like to know if there is any difference in performance.

Canterwood question

I am looking at upgrading to a Canterwood mobo with a 2.8-800 when they are available. I want to know which would be better for the best performance: 2 sticks of 512k of PC3500 or 4 sticks of 256k of PC3500 ?

Which PS is better - Enermax or Antec

The review says there is a 3 pin connector. Is that to control the PSU's fan speed? I assume this means you need a fan controller, like the DigDoc5 or even a small rheostat. Is this correct?

Which PS is better - Enermax or Antec

The review was exactly what I was looking for! The conclusions show that the Antec and Enermax were very close in performance. I have found that the Enermax is about $5 to $10 more expensive and the review had it slightly more noisy. The difference is probably not even detectable by most...

Which PS is better - Enermax or Antec

I am looking at two power supplies and want to know which is better. Antec TruePower 430 Enermax EG465P-VE(FCA) The Enermax has adjustable fan speeds which is good, but I also am very interested in a QUIET P/S. Anybody have experience with both or know where there is a review that looks at...

Where can I get this case?

I am looking for an Antec SX835II case, except I want it without the powersupply. It normally comes with a 350 and I need a 430. Anybody know where I can get one? Here is a link that shows what the case looks like. Link

P-IV Cooling question

I am planning to build a new system based on one of the Granite Bay boards (Asus or Gigabyte) using a Pentium IV - 2.8. I would like to try and overclock to the max just to see how far it will go, but will probably be satisfied to leave it somewhere over 3.0. My question is about which HSF to...

Granite Bay memory speed

If I get a Gigabyte Granite Bay board, what speed memory should I get if I plan to overclock? I will be using a 2.8 GHz chip with C1 stepping that I should be able to get up to 170 fsb. This seems possible after reading some of the reviews. At 170, the memory speed should be just over 350...

Newby lesson needed

;) I actually have a Soyo MB, I meant an Intel P4 chip. My bad. But, I think I have a better understanding now. See if I have it correct: I have a P4 2.0a which has a multiplier of 20 and a fsb of 100. Memory is PC2700 or DDR333. The CPU to DRAM ratios are actually 1:1, 3:4, and 3:5. By...

Newby lesson needed

My Intel motherboard?s bios has divider settings of 1:1, 2:3, and 3:5 (I believe). I have played with changing this and have discovered that at 3:5 I can?t go higher than 105 fsb. At 1:1 I can go up to 125 fsb, but the memory scores in Sandra are lower. I don?t quite understand what these...

Multiplier Question

I have a question about CPU multipliers. This is something that I have never understood or has not been explained to me. I am looking ahead to a new system based on either a SIS 655 or a Granite Bay. I plan to use either a 2.4 or 2.66. The 2.4 is 18 and the 2.66 is 20. If I overclock to 150...

Granite Bay

Reviews are usually handled very professionally. There are some things I would like to see added to the Granite Bay reviews. 1) List the MB Bios revision and if it has been flashed using the MB website files. 2) Compare the GB to the SIS 655 and any others 3) I have seen some discussion about...
