I have an answer to your first question. The point of running with a lower multiplier is the higher FSB. 8x375 is faster than 9x333 because the motherboard/RAM are running faster.
Right now I am running my e4300 at 9x358 but I have been trying to run at 8x400 because it would be faster...
Hey, I have an e4300 on a S3 board and I'm running at 358*9=3222
I tried 400*8 and it won't boot for me either. I think the MCH gets too hot, but I didn't get too many other people to confirm/deny whether or not 400mhz is possible with the D/S3 without a fan on the MCH.
ok ... i guess I'll just stick with 358*9=3222mhz
I am glad i got my e4300 to 3.2 on air but kind of disappointed that i couldn't get my ram running at 400mhz, which WOULD make it faster....but not by too much
Yeah, that's the problem. It IS the mobo, or at least I think it is. I figured others could get 400mhz easily, but mine doesn't.
I'm running my CPU at 3222MHz as we speak, so that's not the problem. (358x9)
I ran my memory at 833MHz before with a little extra voltage (333x2.5)
But I...
@SentToSchool
I know my RAM and CPU can run faster than 800mhz and 3200mhz. I can do both of those separately using different FSB settings, so I know the problem is with the motherboard hitting 400mhz (or anything over ~380mhz for that matter)
@BillParrish
Thanks Bill. I realize that to get a...
Hi, I have a Gigabyte 965P-S3 and e4300 CPU. I can get the CPU to over 3.2GHz by using 358*9 = 3.222. I have also tested my RAM separately and I know for sure that it can get to 833+MHz. So, what I am trying to do is get 400*8=3.2 - fast enough to get the most out of the RAM and CPU at the...
The obvious answer here is the 6420. It will put less stress when overclocking because of its 8x multiplier. That way, 3GHz = 375x8 instead of 429x7 with the 6320.
RooK, BOTH cards use the same information in their own memory. it goes like this:
320 MB of info ----> gpu1
same 320 MB of info ----> gpu2
since it's the same data and they both work with it, the cards are technically using 640 MB, but it's the same stuff twice.
hey RooK, the thing is this... even if you DO get them to run in SLI:
you won't get 640+640 = 1280MB -- that's obvious because you have a 320 and 640
you won't get 320+640 = 960MB
you won't get 320+320 = 640MB
you will actually get ONLY the lesser of the two cards, in this case 320MB.
Yeah...
MBigD011, can you link to those benchmarks? I am assuming everyone goes for the Intel CPUs because they overclock like mad. My 1.80 GHz e4300 is running at 2.80 GHz easily -- undervolted with the stock cooler.
So, in other words, my $160 processor outperforms a stock e6700 -- a $500 processor...
shred, if you have windows XP, I believe you can do the coolbits thing and overclock using that.
If you have Vista, that won't work, but ATITool will work on your Nvidia card.
I have a question. Why don't the CPU manufactures just make a chip that operates at 3000MHz with a unity multiplier? There's really nothing in the chip that would stop a higher FSB, am I right?
So we're not really waiting for Intel to release 1600 MHz chips, but we're waiting for the...
I tried it and got my 8800gts up to ~650 and ram past 1900, no errors. I didn't keep them that way and I probably won't until i NEED TO for my games, but it looked like it was working.
Leadtek's RMA is in California and I have had good experiences with them. I just emailed them with my problem, they sent me an RMA number and I got a card back in 3-4 days.
I'm not saying they are better than EVGA or BFG (because I don't know about them), but Leadtek did everything I would...
hi, i'm having the same problem with this monitor. I tried running this program, but I didn't see the thing you guys did with the screen wiggling, but I have been able to read the edid from both vga and dvi.
Can someone please post their PORT1.TXT and PORT2.TXT from their floppy drive after...
In case anybody else was thinking about upgrading their stand.... the stand he bought is now discontinued. Here's the new one: http://www.ergotron.com/ConsumerProducts/tabid/54/mid/381/ctl/Product/PRDID/126/Language/en-US/Default.aspx
It has the same specs as the old one but, in my opinion...
to me, both sides look a tad dark, with the right side being a little more. mine might even be like that but i won't notice unless i stare at a white screen
i'd rather not look that closely because i'm much more happy not knowing :)
You just posted a screenshot. That means we see whatever you are SUPPOSED TO see, so we wouldn't see the problem from that.
Then, in the actual picture of the screen, it DOES look like the right side is darker, but the picture isn't taken from the center -- it's from the left. If you took...
yeah, I do think that was a wise choice.....well, depending on how long you want to wait. I had a 9700p and was playing hl2 fine at 1024. It'll definitely be choppy at 1280 though
Hey, I'm ordering the same exact combo as I type this :)
Right now I have a MS intellimouse optical with a worn-down ratpad (I didn't use teflon tape at first)
The ratpad was awsome at first before it got worn down, and I'm hoping that with the 518, teflon tape, and the 1030, I'll have a...
Hi, I was also looking for a good PCI card and found a 9100 Pro on ebay. Here are the stats:

I actually bought this case when it was "on sale" for the same price it is now, and always has been
It's nice enough, and actually looks good. The only problem with mine is that when I screwed in the 120mm fan on the back, that metal got a little bent up. I fixed it and haven't had one...
peterhoang2002, it only DLed at 1000kbps when my connection is 1.5mbit. not bad, but not good.
tylerhskate, i made an image, then dragged it off and it's the same.
kleptophobiac.....download one of the small preview and try to do whatever you are talking about, then let us know if it's...
I tried writing an image then ripping it, all with alcohol....it doesn't do crap :(
I really don't care about wasted cds either as I have like a million, but I can't think of anything to do with it. I can't burn it within wmp either, it says i'm not allowed
earthscore, what exactly did...
It will make a folder called "D:\Program Files\Movielink\MovielinkManager\data\content" (If you have more than one hard drive, check both as this ended up on my secondary hard drive for some reason)
The video files are there, but I can't really do much with them. Anyone know how to take...
How do they know EVERYONE'S birthday???
Everyone I know got a mach3 when they turned 18 (well, all the males). The government must supply them this information :p
