I installed Windows XP on my Socket 754 PC last night, and until I ran 3DMark2001SE everything was going super smooth. Then, strangeness ensued. First of all, the system components: FSP 300W ATX PSU ASUS K8V Deluxe K8T800 Motherboard Athlon64 3200+ Clawhammer 2x256MB DDR400 RAM (System refuses to …

I'm considering selling the FX5800 Ultra off on Amibay, what kind of a pricetag should I ask? It's in full working condition. Well, the last three US-based cards on eBay sold for more than 1000 USD each... https://www.ebay.com/itm/BFG-Geforce-FX-5800-Ultra-Graphics-Card/142936116300?hash= …

From what I've heard running a Voodoo II on anything over a PIII 550 makes them run incredibly hot. It seems the faster the CPU, the more it heats up. I think you are confused. The CPU speed has no impact on a VooDoo II card's operating frequency. However, if one was to overclock the PCI bus out of …

High temp will cause electron migration in the GPU and will short out sooner or later plus you are heating the board (RAM) and caps which shorten their life as well. Thermal cycling will affect the BGA solder more then the chip itself. Operating within normal temperature will not shorten the life …

If it is not the RAM, the only thing I can think of being the problem is the CPU itself. It is a P2 "Deschutes" 333MHz CPU, which, when I first installed it, I happened to not change the jumper settings on the motherboard, which beforehand was set for a P2 "Klamath" 300MHz CPU. :( It is possible …

If I had an A2000 I would be buying shit for it nonstop lol. I know the thought dude.... I know it. And because they are just a tad too expensive for my pocket, I have bought a lot of upgrades for my Amiga500. Well... One of the two I own. It is not an Amiga300, yet on paper, my 500 should become …

I'm going to take a wild chance and say all four DDR sticks I tried in these motherboards were faulty to begin with, so I am going to order two more sticks of 1GB DDR400 for this build. Another part of me is still worried that there is a strange RAM density compatibility issue here.. I've read …
