Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here.

yeah, the 754 semprons are doing some great overclocking and if you look around the forums here you will see the am2 semprons are doing as good if not better.
to make this clear i'll show you a little bit of what my sempron can do:
2900mhz suicide shot
2720mhz stable
33.672...
what board do you have that sempron on? i had trouble with my 250gb at those high htt speeds as the chipset loved to get way too hot. i fixed that up with a new chipset sink though.
ive got the dell p1130, which is the same screen as that sony g520 and its in black. dont worry about dvi, it does nothing for crt's as they are analog.
if you can put up with the size, weight and heat of a 21 inch crt then i say go for it. if you dont have a problem with those things then you will love that monitor, that said if you want to move this monitor around, say to lans or things like that, you will not be as impressed. i have the...
im using atitool to do underclock the card. in 2d i take it down to 250/400 and then in 3d i bring it up to 565/600. i use the built in 3d detection to change between the 2d and 3d clocks then to change the fan speed i just use one setting, under 55 degrees there is 0 fan, then i bump it up...
ive been doing this for over a year with my x850xt, its a great way to decrease heat, and in my case even got it to the point where i could run the card passively while sitting in 2d so thats also a nice way to quiet things down as well.
and no i didnt lose any pipelines are anything in the...
i used to do this all the time with my x850xt when i only had my stock cooler on it. in windows i would underclock the card to about 250/400 then use atitool to turn the fan off. when the fan was off the card would idle at about 50 degrees then in a game i had atitool setup so it would detect...
well here is mine, resized so that its not absolutely giant, natively its running 1280 by 960 on the left screen (a 17 inch crt) and 1920 by 1440 on the main screen (a 21 inch crt). ive been too lazy to make myself a custom wallpaper for it but i will get around to it soon enough.
these semprons are very capable chips when you pair them with a decent mobo. i would have loved to see a s754 dual core come out for the mobile market that i could snag, but they are moving to a new socket so that wont happen. this 2800+ has probably been the best 90 bucks cad that i have...
yeah, i like how the backwards hard drives make the case look cleaner on the inside.
on those drive covers, they are made out of a fairly thick aluminum and were really easy to put on, id definately recommend them as they make the front of the case much more stealth looking.
ok, well to start it off here is my sempron with its his off:
then moving on here is my mobo with my zalman 7000 cu and zalman passive northbridge sink, notice that i had to dremel off a couple fins on the northbridge sink to make it fit along with my x850xt. the 7000cu keeps my sempron...
