    Better options than XP Dual Boot?

    I'm a web developer and an avid gamer. I just put together a new system which is suppose to be both: my gaming system and a workstation. For my work I need to install a lot of software packages that are not game friendly (SQL server hogs all the memory it can). Also, very often I need to install...

    SMART FAN II - Should I buy? UPDATED - diff. between BIOS temp readings tested.

    I bought Smart Fan II along with Thermaltake's 'ducting mod' about a week ago. It replaced a very quiet panaflo fan and although my temps dropped from ~55 degrees (at full load) to about 45, it is so loud that I can't take it any longer. I installed it with a temp probe that regulates rpms but...

    My XP2500+ purchased unlocked...

    333MHz Bartons are recognized by the BIOS and by default the FSB is set to 333. (166x2). If you want to OC you don't really care if the BIOS recognizes your CPU as 333 or 266, you still want to set it manually to a much higher setting. As it happens CPUs set by the factory to 333 are having...

    AMD system: So whos running 200Mhz CPU/RAM in sync

    3.06@3,560 vs 2.66@3,300 an observation

    Yeah, I read that article and I totally disagree with it. I think FSB makes all the difference My test using Barton 2500+ on NF7-s 3DMark2001 13x170fsb 2.2ghz = 17041 10x220fsb 2.2ghz = 17828

    *** Official ABIT NF7/S (nForce2) Thread ***

    My 2.0 does 220 and it looks like a limit. I did not do a vdd mod. However this speed was only achieved after cutting L12 bridge on Barton CPU. Before the cut 170MHz!!! was a maximum XP bootable speed (This has something to do with 333MHz bus of the CPU).

    My XP2500+ purchased unlocked...

    First I zapped it with a 9v battery (well known method) and then just to make sure I cut it with a razor. I recommend zapping it with a battery only, but I have a damn swiftech heatsink which you mount to the motherboard holes. It takes me a long time to install a CPU so I just didn't want to...

    OCing my new system is not going well...

    Today I cut the L12 Bridge (Actually I zapped it first with 9v and then cut it - just to make sure I don't have to do it a second time) Yesterday booting to XP with RAM over 170 was impossible. Today I'm running stable at 220x10 3DMark: 17828

    My XP2500+ purchased unlocked...

    My 2500 was also unlocked, but on Abit NF7-S I could not boot to XP with RAM higher the 170!!! (was running it at 166x13.5) It was pissing me off so I took the CPU out and cut L12 Bridge. This was just 30 minutes ago so I havn't finish testing yet. I want to bump RAM as high as I can with low...

    OCing my new system is not going well...

    Five hours later, 3 new installations of XP, 5 recoveries through recovery console I finally got something going. I relaxed RAM timings to 7-3-3 cas 2 and so far everything is running smoothly. I'm at 2210MHz (170x13). I think now with relaxed RAM timings I could try bumping it higher, but I'm...
