[DC] Athlon XP 2800+ or 3000+ for best crunching?

Dammit! I woke up this morning to a frozen WinXP, the first time that's ever happened. I guess the overclock wasn't stable :( . Psychosylph, did you do anything else besides changing the BIOS FSB?

[DC] Athlon XP 2800+ or 3000+ for best crunching?

Now that the FSB is 333MHz, I notice that periodically the fan seems to get louder for a second (I'm guessing speeds up), and then gradually settles back to its normal level. Is this a natural effect of more heat production, and the board is just sensing it? I took the cover off to let more...

[DC] Athlon XP 2800+ or 3000+ for best crunching?

Yeah, my bad. Can't multiply apparently. So, I went in and changed the FSB from 133 to 166, rebooted, and... WOW! I still can't get over how a simple sequence of keystrokes can make a system blaze! It's great to see the evolution of my comp. over the last couple days: 8/30/03...

[DC] Athlon XP 2800+ or 3000+ for best crunching?

Haha, sorry to misunderstand, Psychosylph :) I have almost the exact same setup as you, except mine's at 133FSB (real, not effective). Do you just go in and change this in the bios? This AMD web site says that the FN41 board in the SN41G2 supports 333FSB max (actually the 177FSB yours is...

Let me get something straight: is the 2500+ better to overclock because it's cheaper or because it handles OC'ing inherently better? For instance, could I also overclock a 3000+?

Overclocking a Shuttle SN41G2?

If anyone knows how to overclock an AMD Athlon XP 2500+ in a SN41G2, please head over to the CPU forum and join in on this thread. Thanks! -Grant :D

[DC] Athlon XP 2800+ or 3000+ for best crunching?

MonkeyDriveExpress, I just read this thread where Psychosylph says that even if I wanted to, the SN41G2 bios doesn't support overclocking :( . The more I think about it, though, getting twice the speed at half the price doesn't sound too bad, and if I can do it without getting that wonderful...

[DC] Athlon XP 2800+ or 3000+ for best crunching?

I wish I could OC, but I have a SFF (small form factor) unit (Shuttle XPC SN41G2) that's only tested up to 333FSB, and heat is a big worry for me. Plus, I don't really feel comfortable (yet :D ) pushing a system beyond its guaranted tolerances. shady06, I didn't realize that the Barton core...

Almost doubled my WU speed!

Thanks guys! I'm gonna upgrade my CPU to either a 2800+ T-bred, a 2800+ Barton, or a 3000+ Barton. Everyone head over to the CPU Forum to vote! -Grant :D

[DC] Athlon XP 2800+ or 3000+ for best crunching?

Hi everyone! I'm looking to upgrade my CPU from an Athlon XP 1800+ to either a 2800+ (256KB L2, 333FSB, 2.25GHz) or a 3000+ (512KB L2, 333FSB, 2.16GHz). To add to the dilemma, there's also a 2800+ with a Barton core available (512KB L2, 333FSB, 2.08GHz). I'm a big DC'er and stat freak (just...

Life & the Universe

I have a slightly hybridized opinion. I don't believe that SETI will actually detect the signals of intelligent life, mainly because of all the requirements for their detection - we must analyze the right frequency range, control for self- and space-induced interference, scan the correct region...
