They are great if you you need OC with SLI support. Without SLI... they are OK (NV chipset can do lower DRAM than 1:1). OC guide : LINK

I got my A-Data 2000X 2x2x2GB (Double Dual Channel [8GB]), to 1500MHz and CL6.6.6.18 CR1T @ 1,65V :) Cinebench r15 (CL6) mini.png Of course, ^those are not 24/7 use setting. The hard part is to get a stable ballance between FSB:MCH Strap/Performance Level and VTT Voltage/GTL settingss ;). If you get …

No problem :) As for DIMMs I think CL6 and 1600MHz may be better choise, however that depends on how good those 2GHz ones like low timings with lower frequency. Also, 2000MHz on RAM isn't possible with 4 DIMM slots occupied (at least from what I tested with my set). Here's my Cinebench R15 score ( …

I did more than 1620MHz on my Rampage Extreme (same cooling) :cool: 3DMark 03 XP (GTX 780 Ti) mini.png PSUs : I used Corsair TX 750W (v1) for that throttle test, and OCZ ZS 750 for above test. An idiot's guide for Rampage Extreme ? ... Basic guide for any ASUS X48 platform should be a good start. …

1) Overclocking This CPU on crappy PSU ? Someone likes to live on edge :D 2) Rampage doesn't need PWM fan to control fan RPMs. It has direct voltage regulation on most FAN connectors (and CPU_FAN is one of them) and it works regardless of fan type (Hardware Monitor - "Duty %" value). 3) 1333MHz FSB …

I should add that if heatsink get's warm at the bottom, contact with IHS is probably OK. Pentium Ds don't have internal (per core) temp sensors. EDIT : You are running Pentium XE 965 in there (a CPU-z screen shot would be nice) ?

I own both P5K64 WS and Rampage Extreme so I can share what I learn so far :) Rampage isn't worth 300$ (I got mine for less than 1/5 of that [~200zł and 1$=3,5zł]). As for usage : Rampage has a PROPER MOSFET cooling solution (ie. heatpipes + screws). Doom 3 XP 5,1GHz Rampage GPU OC.PNG My P5K64 WS …

It's actually a Gigabyte GA-8S661FXM-775 (AGP 8x) and I want to update the bios, but I can't tell if it's revision 1.x or 2. It does currently have an old bios from 2004 (F2c), and both revision 1.x and 2 have newer bioses available. I don't want to flash the wrong revision. Well, 1.0 uses F1, F2, …

There is quite few options why you can have this issue. 1) Bad sensor 2) Too little TIM (or it didn't spread right/has air in few spots). 3) Failed push pins (they do go in, but they can't "Lock" in place or they don't exert any force on heatsink itself to force it against CPU). 4) Fan on heatsink …

2,93GHz Pentium 4... get a 7600 GT/GS or Radeon 9800 Pro (if you can have something slower than 7600 GS). 6600 GT/6800 GS are also an option (last one depends on PSU). Don't buy 7800 GS (they are usually overpriced). Check what MB you have in CPU-z (maybe it's old BIOS that has problemns with newer …

Replacing a socket 775 P4 with a Pentium Dual Core normally works without problems. The BIOS does not need to know the CPU. I had a system running with a 2007 BIOS that detected a Celeron Dual Core as a Core2Duo but still worked flawlessly. Only after a BIOS update much later it was correctly …

If motherboard doesn't support a CPU made on the same socket (but you still install it), there can happend two things : 1) PC won't POST with "no CPU" beep code. 2) PC will start with "CPU not recognized" error, with smaller frequncy/not working functions. In Your case it's 100% first option. Fans …

Maybe AGP slot is being overloaded power wise (for what ever reason ?). Underclocking could help if the case. I would try DDU first tho (it works best under Safe Mode).

Are you using 2041 driver with no PCI/SB emulation option(s) ? Example : LINK I wouldn't be surprised if Audigy 2 didn't like Vortex 2 too much (IRQ/reasource conflicts).

DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) was used ? I would try underclocking to see if it's not GPU/VRAM at end of it's life 🙁
