    Which is quicker P4 2.8 or AMD XP @2200mhz?

    Equal. Memory subsystem will make all the difference in either case.

    Hi Alec, What IC's are on the RAM?

    ***The Official E2140/E2160 Overclocking Thread***

    Alec, This might be a bit irrelevant but i had trouble with my E4500 limiting at 334MHz FSB before i reseated the CPU a few times which gave me 360MHz, strange board the P5K Vanilla. What memory are you using?

    A bit below -90C, these little baby CPUs dissipate very little power even at high voltage.

    **Official OCUK SuperPI database**

    As the voltage goes up the power dissipation of the CPU goes up exponentially, most single stage systems like the vapochill LS just can't handle that amount of power maybe 1.6v+ real Specially built (what you guys call "custom phase") single stages can do, any respectable high power cascade...

    It was pretty stable at that speed, didn't try 3DMark tho. Could have probably got off a 2001 run at 4550MHz, would have definately passed at 4500MHz...

    Starfall 13.875 E2180 4550MHz M0 Not sure, it's in the car will find out tomorrow :) 1.8v set, 1.78 ish real Asus Blitz Formula OCZ Reaper PC9200 2.4v 567MHz 5-5-5-15 Cascaded vapour compression Windows XP SP2, slim but untweaked

    E2180 M0 bought from OcUK at about mid day 27/10/07 Asus Blitz Formula Small two stage r404a/ethylene cascade 1.8v core, voltage doesn't help that much, 1.9v made no difference, it's FSB limited :( ~10 miles from OcUK: Posts up to about 475MHz but keels over loading Windows instantly. I...

    Can you explain how a motherboard works?

    How does it work....? :eek: That's a pretty hard question! :D It might be better if you could give and example of where your confused, for example give two motherboards in your price range.

    Soldering iron?

    Just get a basic Antex and some tip cleaner. Don't go ultra cheap, they are cr*p, your current budget is reasonable :)

    Help me overclock this AMD 1900+ (single core) and Nforce 2 board?

    6-8-0 = TBred-A 6-8-1 = TBred-B I think.... :)

    Help me overclock this AMD 1900+ (single core) and Nforce 2 board?

    This suggests that a TBred-B XP1900 wasn't ever made, but there's CPU's missing from the table over that time span as well as core voltages being wrong so i'm not sure... http://images.tomshardware.com/2004/12/21/the_mother_of_all_cpu_charts/cpu_table_amd_big.gif

    Help me overclock this AMD 1900+ (single core) and Nforce 2 board?

    The stock FSB is 133MHz, the stock multiplier is 12. This will be either a Palomino or a Thourghbred A or a Throughbred B - basically it could be anything apart from a Thorton IIRC the Thorton was never binned as low as XP1900. Open up CPU-z and see what it says, TBred or Palomino. From...

    Who is the best overclocker?

    Of all the people in the UK currently running cascades, i think raja is the only person to have bought one - the rest have all built them, money isn't realy an issue. There are dozens of people on these forums with vastly more money, better spec'd PC components etc than most of the people who...

    Straight to Phase?

    Ok this is what happens if a standard r134a Mach / XE etc is put onto a very high load CPU beyond what it was designed for: It starts with the capillary tube not delivering enough refrigerant to cool the load resulting in very high suction gas superheat. Given that the compressors are...

    Optimising Overclocks - a great technical article...

    Very good article, Kris does great work for the community.

    Straight to Phase?

    This is not true. The introduction of the higher pressure r402(a) into r404a would almost certainly result in higher discharge pressures than r507. r404a is r507 with a small amount of r134a added, the performance difference between r507 and r404a is very small at best. Please feel free to...

    Is the housing market beginning to stagnate?

    In some areas renting is now marginally cheaper than buying. Real inflation is probably around the 5% mark, i think base interest rates will probably go to 6% in the next 3 months. I think either stagnation or a crash (there are never "small" crashes) will happen within the next year...
