    First M2 board!

    It's in Dutch, actually, if you goto http://www.freetranslation.com/free/web.htm and paste url in, then pick Dutch to English you can understand most of it. Not everything is perfectly translated but at least it's readable. I hope this turns out to be a great performer for AMD. DDR2 hasn't made...

    XP Sp2 Issues

    Ok well I couldn't get that do do anything. I burned to a dvd then it booted right to the suse screen. Supposedly loaded the hardware video and pc information then it went to a black screen with a mouse cursor. It sat like that for over 2 hours. Then I turned the pc off because the hard drive...

    Choice to upgrade...

    Just my input. Go with the Opty. I've got a Opty 150 running at 2.7Ghz with Patriot ram. I haven't even messed with the core voltages. I'll be getting some Pc4000 ram to see how high I can boost it. I'm using a Zalman 9500 and the motherboard fan controller. I haven't seen the temps peak above...

    XP Sp2 Issues

    Yeah I tried all of it. I was checking out linuxisos.org. I'll try to find another live version so I don't need another hard drive. This is really bugging me though.

    XP Sp2 Issues

    Ok well I couldn't do anything with that. I used "ping techgage.com", I tried google and nothing. Then I tried the ifconfig and ping and on down the line and still I couldn't get a response. All I'd get was "uknown host techgage.com" or whichever.

    XP Sp2 Issues

    Yeah it's worth a shot. I pinged google and got 200+ :/. This is quite irritating. I'm paying for a 3mb broadband connection and it's being crippled somehow.

    Antec Phantom 500W Power Supply

    If you're going with a Sli setup I'd suggest at least 550-600w. Considering the 4 hard drives and 4 sticks of memory, you'll need a fairly powerful psu to support your devices. I used a utility called Overclockulator, and it's got a power conversion chart in it. I guessed at a little of it, but...

    XP Sp2 Issues

    I turned it off and managed to drop the ping by ~20, but that could be the traffic and connections of the other players. I still think there's something included in sp2 that's creating the problem. I'll keep playing around with it I guess.

    XP Sp2 Issues

    I noticed this once before but didn't think anything of it until now... Okay, so I've got XP Pro installed. I've gotten the updates and just about everything needed. My games have been installed and I've been playing Day of Defeat. My normal ping ranges from 60-80, with max being around 150. I...

    Benchmarking High Scores

    <3 Amd lol. I've got the 7800GT at 495/1250. I think I can improve those scores once I get the sata hd. I'm running on a WD Caviar 80G at Ata-100. Will be stepping up to Sata shortly.

    Time for a new one!

    Haven't been able to do much testing due to work and school. I've been setting up updates and patches when I can. I ran Aq3 the first night at 2.56Ghz got about 90k and somewhere in the neighborhood of 8k in 3dmark05. That was before the format. I'll try to keep you guys updated but I'm in and...

    Time for a new one!

    The 7800 is running 490/1200 with stock sink. I should be getting the Arctic cooler tomorrow or saturday. Might be able to boost it to 500/1200, we'll see. I'll start up some benchmarks to see what'll happen. Didn't have any problems running f@h today so it should be alright.

    Time for a new one!

    Stable as a rock at 225x12 2.7ghz. No voltage increases and stock timings. I'm just going to leave it there til I get the better ram.

    Time for a new one!

    The 150 isn't a dual core. The 165's and higher recieved dual cores. The ram doesn't like cas 3, but I got it to 2.5-3-3-8 @ 230mhz. Super Pi won't run, and I get errors in aq3. I haven't touched the chipset or core voltages yet, and the ram is running at less voltage now than it was before. I...

    Time for a new one!

    I dropped him a line reporting the problem. Got the processor running at 2.7G 12x225. Core is 1.37v haven't touched it, the ram I bumped from 2.66 to 2.68v. Been running folding@home for ~6 hours while I was at school. Temps were below 30c when I got in. I'll loosen up the timings on the ram...
