So my 486DX2 66 was 33mhz bus 1:1 and turbo made it 66mhz?

I never understood what the point of the TURBO button was, or why anyone would run with it OFF. And the lock and keys were the best.

My hindsight runs at 20/20 at 1.3volts. Prime stable 29 years

Q6750 my X3350 is very good, not worth the extra 150 over a Q6600 right now. But i hope that 12meg cache will improve things later on.

nero7 fully supports multicore? That time alone is like 20% faster,

http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Support/Motherboard/CPUSupport_Model.aspx?ProductID=2736 they say officially the dS4 F3 bios is supported.

I bought my board on January 20th. It worked find with F1 to get into windows i did not do much else. First i flashed the bios. IDK if the @BOIS is deemed safe or unsafe But the DUAL bios backup if form the hard drive, so i can not see how the windows version which just basically just...

my X3350 got into windows on F1. i flashed F3 in windows using @BIOS. I can't guarantee anything. But that is what happened to me.

Sorry i should make what i posted more clear. The DUAL bios form GA-X38 will revert to a saved BIOS when there is error in the booting of the desired bios. This is written in the manual link is here. http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Support/Motherboard/Manual_Model.aspx?ProductID=2736 You can not...

Just to let you know....that 4 x 8 is 32 not 36......... :P:D

All GA-X38-DS4/DQ6 are printed on the same board as the x48 counter part. You can even look at pics to see ti is the exact same layout. The probably just run the same board, put a sticker over the x48 to make it x38....but DDR2 slots on it and different chips but use the same PCB's I know...

post a 3dmark scrore when your done please... :P

my X3350 makes no sense at all.

What am to to think about these temps? CPU is very low....eveything else never goes down and max i have seen is 20 degrees more running stress test.. Real Temp is 10 degrees colder all the time....core temp and Everest are the same all the time....all 3 are very high... The system is on stock...

What program to you use... I prefer everest 4.50 cause of th eG15 interface.

I have very similar issues...... 44,44,49,49 at idel on real temp...x3350....i over clocked it to 3.2....same temps. On Core Temp it is like 52,52,55,55.... CPU temp in Bios is 30, mobo temp 33, I am using a Ninja Rev.B

It is purely RAM spec that make that possible?

So i have a new x3350 replacing my Conroe-L Celeron 420 running at 2.6ghz (333mhz FSB) I was running the tRD on my GA-X38-DS4 at 5 and phase 0. 5:4 strap 400mhz ram running 4-4-4-12 timings at 2.0v on Mushkin EM DDR2-800 ram 2 x 2gb. With the new Quad Core processor and the X38 from what i...

http://www.intel.com/pressroom/kits/quickreffam.htm if you looks at Quad Core Q9450, QX9650 and X3350...what to you notice... Something wrong right? a Type-o?

some soapy water on that 2000 grit paper will get you a miror finish.

my GA-X38-DS4 boots the X3350 no issues, i am on bios version F3. F2 is only needed tho.

This is what i got so far. [email protected] on GA-X38-DS4 @1.2volts. I have a question, which parameter stops the multiplier from lowering and raising with power...i thought i stopped it but it still keeps on going from 8 to 6....C1E or ESIT? I kinda new to this. Seems like 1.20 volts got it to...

With Intel competition at high end almost zero, the late release of the 45nm quads and duals...i would be surprised if Intel releases Nehalem on that schedule and cannibalize sales on 45nm shrink. I would imagine Mid 09 for Nehalem. IMHO.

Accelero S1 Rev2 Is so good i can't believe it was only 25 bucks....I use mine in passive mode and never see anything over 50 c....ever.

i put a Artic Cooling Fan with rubber mounts and a PWM controller. The fan almost never spins on full and makes no noise at all........so i never hear that top fan issue anymore The rear fan is a on a 3 wire on runs at 1100 rpm but is very silent also.

Arctic Cooling fans are pretty quite and push about 40 cfm for the 1000 rpm versions. i have 3 and i like them.

You can put a AC cooling Accelero S1 on a 8800gt for a silent 8800gt 512meg with more performance then a 3870. 3870 is much quieter out of the box, but also get pretty hot on the stock fan..

for 160 bucks+ the price of the power supply you could just get AMD system built. That would own your p4.

"Expect Constraints until Q2" Where does that supposed e-mail say no Q1 shipping in limited supply. We have already seen some 8400's so we all know 45nm are limited and coming.

If my friend was on a budget and wanted a new system and did not know how to overclock a system. I would recomend a AMD build, either 6000+, with a 8800tg and 4 gigs of ram. This should not brake the bank at all and will do very well over for very little moo la.

What if i go from a 65nm Celeron 420 single core to a Q9450? same thing?

Here is my P180B with my new hardware in it. I am running a OCed 420 Celeron until i get my Q9450... this was my attempt after reviewing everyone;s post there. It sure does look alot better then before...and alot quieter with the new hardware and fans. Edit: Specs CPU: Celeron 420 running...

It's a Enermax EG495P-VE Noisetaker 485W Power Supply. I believe it has 36 amps on the +12v rail and i am running a 3870 and two, two platter 500gb Seagate Hard drives, and 2x2gb ram. Should be ok until i get my 2nd 3870 and OC the quad to 3.6ghz...in which i thinking around 650 to 700 watts.

I have a 2x2 CPU power connector, my board will take (Giga X38-DS4) a 2x4 connector. The literature says it only needs the 2x4 for 130x extreme processors. Do you think i will need a new PSU for when my ordered Q9450 gets to my door in March? Or can i stick with the 2x2 power? EDIT: Sorry for...
