I have the exact same case! Like you, I also have a hard time justifying a new case due to the timeless quality of this old antec. It is still a dam good case even though it weighs a ton.
I think it depends upon whether the board features overclocking or perhaps core unlocking software that can be accessed through windows or via the bios. You will have to overclock through adjustments in the bios setting. I use slackware and have overclocked phenom IIs manually on an Asus, ecs...
I am going to upgrade from an old athlon thunderbird at 800 mghz. I was thinking of either going am2 route and getting an athlon 3800x2 bundle or perhaps getting a pentium D805 bundle. another possibility is a socket 939 bundle. I have an old matrox card that i will continue using. i do not...
Hey guys and gals:
i am looking to rebuild for the first time in about 4 years. i have been out of the game so to speak. could anyone point to a resource that details the history of cpus since about 4 years ago. The last time i checked Amd had Socket A. now there is socket 939 and others...
Thanks for the reponses. the chipset is zx. i do not know what form factor is of the cpu. There are some laptops that you can upgrade particularly the laptops that use amd k62. Compaqs for sure and some Toshibas. But here is another question. if you have a laptop that uses a dual scan...
I am thinking of upgrading my laptop Toshiba satellite 2615dvd. It has a celeron 433 with 66 fsb. MMMy question is if i upgraded to a penium III with 100 fsb would the lower bus speed of 66 on Motherboard negate any advantage in using s pentium chip that can work at 100. Thanks
BEWARE! If you have a huge penis (like moi, not to brag of course) I have found tht Lifestyles condoms are prone to tearing during the throes of energetic thrusts. So, buyer beware.
Thanks a lot for the info. the model number is satellite 2100cdt. I also have a system board for a 1605cds. But on that one the problem is the machine will not power up at all except for the light. But anyway, thanks for the assistance. I think this will be a really cool project if I can...
Anybody know of sites or books that would give information about testing the circuitry of a laptop system board? I have a dead system board for a toshiba laptop. Well it boots, but it will not work with the display so i have to use an external monitor. The laptop screen works so it must be a...
But why upgrade? That is the question that you have to ask your self. if your system works fine now, what is the point? we are simply behaving like automatons with this upgrade fancy. Stick with the old grey mare if she still has some good stuff.
I am not an expert by any means but I ahve installed redhat and mandrake plenty of times. perhaps the problem is with the placement of the win98. There is something I read where linux has to be installed within the first 2.5 gig or something like that.
