    AMD and northbridges

    thanks for the response. I am a little confused as to which one your speaking about, but I think the first one your talking about is the south bridge and the later paragraph is the "north bridge". Correct me if I am mistaken.

    AMD and northbridges

    Thank you for posting, Please look at an A8N32, not the A8N boards. There is indeed a second chipset just under thecpu socket, then there is the southbridge.

    AMD and northbridges

    I have been out of the hardward area for sometime. Being as such, it surprised me recently when reading a review on the A8N32-SLI boards. What hit me first was the presence of a northbridge heatsink. It took me a minute to figure out what I was seeing, but after reading the article, it stated...

    Does my PSU Suck?

    went to that link as well and got no pop ups. As far as what PSU to use and voltage lines, amps, and wattts go; it is just as important what wattage you are getting as the amps you need. I have been at this business for some time, but I always make sure to get a PSU that more then runs...

    EVGA 7800GT CO Glitching and Locks

    Sorry to hear you bad time with eVGA. I recently purchased a 7800gt CO from them and couldnt be happier with the card. I did have some problems, but driver related and not hardware related. I hope you have better luck with the BFG, I almost did the same before a friend told me about evga.

    Do I need to upgrade the cooling on my eVGA 7800GT?

    I have the 7800gt CO with the copper heatsink, and it handles the OC I have done so far (497/1220) quiet well. But from everything I have readon the 7800gt series, I would upgrade the the AC NV Silencer 5 ver. 3. I have seen some benchmarks that shows it cools the card really well and allow...

    Troubleshooting section

    The problem is that drivers I was using were not compatible with Riva Tuner 15.7 Driver version 81.XX or higher are not compatible with the current Riva tuner, as far as keeping 2d settings and perf overclocking seperate.

    WCPUID question

    I recently decided to use CPUID to check out my cpu. It showed some very odd information. First off, it shows my AMD 64 3000+ venice core to be a skt 754 not a 939. Second, it shows that the CPU is running at 1813 mhz not the stock speeds of 1800 [ WCPUID Version 3.3 (c) 1996-2004 By...
