this will be my 3rd socket 754 system (I have no clue how that happened)
the other two use DTR CPUs, in 10X and 11X Multi sizes (3200+ and 3400+)
but this one will use...
AMD Athlon 64 3700+ 2.4GHz (12X multi)ClawHammer 1MB L2 Cache
ZALMAN CNPS7700-CU All Copper Heatsink
DFI nF4X Infinity Socket 754 NVIDIA nForce4-4X ATX AMD Motherboard
II guess I should get that Leadtek 6800GT and the Neopower 480 because I think they would look and work good on this system ( but I'm still looking for options on those parts )
I still need to see how high the Vdimm will go on the DFI Infinity motherboard before I can buy some RAM...but I would still like it to be a 1GB stick of very low latency RAM so that I could add another for the 2GB all the kids are crazy about these days
I would really like to find a 1GB stick of DDR 500/PC 4000 CAS 2 @ 250MHz
so I can try to run this set-up @ 250mhz X 12 = 3.0GHz
but it looks like the only RAMs that can do that are the OCZ VX and REDLINE...and both of those need very high voltage to run at the speeds and timings I would like
not only that but I can only find them in 512mb sticks
so does anyone know what the vDimm can be set to with the DFI socket 754 Infinty board?
and if there are any 1GB sticks of DDR 500 / PC 4000 (250mhz) that can run at CAS 2 ?
also I have a good idea on a slick way to replace the fan on the ZAL 7700 using one of these fans...
link Delta 120x38mm Triple Blade High Speed Fan for Heatsink
or
link Delta 120x38mm TFB1212GHE Extreme High Speed for Heatsink
I'm guessing the Triple Blade would be more than enough....but how bad (loud) would the TFB1212GHE Extreme be?...and is there anyway for the motherboard to automatically control the speed of the Extreme as it uses a molex power connector where the Triple Blade can be powered off the motherboard...would the Triple Blade be silly loud too?
