    Antec Phantom: How is it?

    So I plan on investing in an Antec Phantom for my dad's computer. He's a musician and has a pseudo-recording studio in his room here. His computer is in the same room as he records everything digitally. I'm doing everything I can to make his setup as quiet as possible and the time has come for...

    Socket AM2 Club!

    I never got posted. I have a 4400+ at 2.8Ghz stable for months now ^_^

    What's going on with my OC?

    2.8Ghz appears to be the limit cause I tried to do 2.9Ghz and Orthos crapped out at a few minutes. I'll just have to accept it unless anyone can guess why Orthos fails at such variable amounts of time. But, it is doing much cooler and I am still very happy with the jump from 2.2Ghz. ^_^

    A quiet case for my dad

    My dad is big into audio production and recording. He's currently using a P4 in a Sonata II case but the thing is still pretty loud. I'm wondering what fans, PSU, and case y'all would recommend. I'd prolly go the next step and get as much sound dampening material that I could. Then when the...

    What's going on with my OC?

    Up to 52 at max but 57 minutes until 1 day of Orthos stable! Edit: Orthos stable!

    Lightning = New Guts

    Did you have a brand name power strip? If so, look it up and see if they have any insurance on it. That might be able to get you free components, otherwise do what Arc said and I'd go with the Intel systems. They just have so much potential!

    What's going on with my OC?

    I remounted it with my AS5 and am priming 2.8Ghz. I just wanna say thanks to Quad for all his help. Damn! 10 degrees cooler (50° C). He was right :D

    What's going on with my OC?

    Never remounted but right now I kicked the OC back to 2.9Ghz. I'm happy on the encoding spectrum and I'm gonna try Orthos after it is done. Orthos would fail around 12-13 hours at 3.0Ghz, is that stable or unstable? Sure, message me with your SN.

    What's going on with my OC?

    I apologize for resurrecting the thread but I gotta figure this out. Occasionally, my computer will freeze my processes one by one. One program will stop responding, then I'll try opening Task Manager. If I already have it open, I can't end anything. It really sucks. My question is: is it...

    AMD is really making me miffed

    And what's this stuff for Socket F? It's been a server socket forever, they probably figured that the architecture for it made the most sense for Quadfather. I would prefer Quadfather over Kentsfield anyway because K8L Quad-cores will fit in the sockets meaning.... Octofather :)

    What's going on with my OC?

    They max out at 63° C which I'm comfortable with cause my processor is rated for up to 70°. At 1.5V, it failed at 3 hours. I'm gonna kick it back down to 1.475V and call it stable.
  13. T

    What's going on with my OC?

    The aforementioned 1.475V which makes it even weirder. :p The things we do to OC!
  14. T

    What's going on with my OC?

    I decreased the voltage cause I think it was too much down to 1.475V and turned the fans back up so it's sitting comfortably around 60° C. Orthos had errored out at 13 hours. Should I try and get to 24 hours or is it inevitable that I'll error? EDIT: And one of the instances of Prime errored...
