A friend of mine is selling a Pentium 4 631 retail boxed cpu.
It runs prime stable at 4.9ghz @ 1.4v.
see the screeny here.
He's asking for $200, should I get it or should I get a brand new one, and take a chance?
I will contact Dell support, and see what they have to say about this.
I replaced the 128MB ECC DDR400 memory with 4 x 512MB DDR400 Samsung original memory.
Running memtest86 @ 400MHz for 3 hours and no problems so far.
Just received my 3.2GHz system, but noticed the heatpipe is installed different from the picture shown here. The heat pipes were rubbing against the capacitors next to the socket. Anyone else has the same problem? Will post a picture shortly.
i have 2 sticks of 512mb kingston pc2700 memory. the one with samsung chips can run @ 225fsb @ 2.5-7-3-3 timing with 2.75v. no errors running memtest86 (tested on abit is7). the other stick with nanya chips cannot even do 205fsb. just make sure you guys are getting the samsung chips ones.
see...
I have almost the same setup as yours.
SB51GB
P4 1.8@2.4 (pin mod)
Maxtor 160GB
One stick of Kingston 512MB PC2700
ATI All-in-Wonder 8500DV

So far, I have no problem with the power supply (watching DVD and TV only), but I did notice the power supply was running hot, especially the...
I'm running 2 sticks of 512mb Samsung original PC2700 @ 203fsb CAS 2.5-6-3-3 @ 2.6v rock stable on Abit IT7-MAX2 V2.0, Memtest86 tested over 7 hours with no errors. 845PE chipset seems to handle 2 sticks of memory at high speed better than 845E.
The new ones should have reflective stickers on them (old ones have just plain white stickers), like the ones shown at the following links.

Just got mine, XMS3500 512MB Platinum Series, directly from Corsair.
Sandra Memory test:
@166FSB @2.7v 3:4 Cas 2-3-2-5 3404/3400, ran Memtest86 over 10 hours, no errors.
@167FSB @2.7v 3:4 Cas 2-3-2-5 3416/3419
I am extremely happy with the memory.
