well, I borrowed a friends ATI 9200. My FSB is now at 289 and I have been playing cs:source for about an hour with no probs. It locked up after about 30 seconds with my nvidia. The FPS are way low, but thats because the 9200 sux bad. Needless to say, I think I'm going for a refurbed 9800...
The only reason I want to get the 9800 is so I can get my FSB higher. Anytime I go over 255, nv4_disp fails. I've tried several drivers and crap and yes, I installed them correctly :)
How do I tell if my board is a revision 2? It has a "Fixed" option in the bios for AGP/PCI. I've read...
Ok, let me give you a little background. I recenlty upgraded my motherboard, cpu, and ram..see sig. I have AGP. I am having a problem anytime I raise the FSB over 255. I was able to raise the FSB to 300 and run prime 95 for a few hours, but as soon as I start playing a game, it crashes and...
yes I noticed this. I have a Abit Av8 with the XP-90 and it sticks out towards the back of my case, over the northbridge chipset. My friend has a DFI nf3 AGP board and x2 4400+ and it didn't look like the xp-90 would fit. The mounting bracket is in a different direction and the heatsink did...
go nForce...I have a VIA and I am not happy with it...I can OC my CPU to 2.6 fine and it can Prime95 for hours, but as soon as I play a game...I get the "nv4_disp has been caught in an infinite loop" error. I can't fix it at all. As long as I leave my FSB at 255 I can play games fine. I need...
look at my sig. I'm running stable at 2606 with a 289 FSB. I had it up to 300 and I could play games and stuff, but if failed prime95 after about 20 seconds. I've let it run on prime95 for 7 hours with the current setup and no errors. :)
Note: I had to swith the AGP settings to 8:2:1 or...
I have an xp-90 waiting on my doorstep for me to get home from work :)
I have an extra tornado that I'm going to use for the fan. Does it fit with the clips that comes with the heatsink? It's 38 cm thick correct? Compared to normal 25cm fans...
