OK, i want to OC a P4 630 (3GHz) to match a AMD64 3200+ 939 Venice CPU in gaming. Q1: how high to OC the 630? Q2: how high to OC to match 3500+ Venice? I would buy a AMD in the first place if I could get a new M/B with a AGP slot. The only ones around seem to have the lousy VIA Chipset with...

Ok, 8O how much of a difference as a general rule, in gaming framerates is there between a Leadtek GF4 TI4600 Ultra and a Leadtek 6600GT AGP with average settings and no AA. (Looked for a chart with both on and could not find one) Thank's.

Q: 8O Do you know what the main differences (advantages/dissadvantages/problems) are between the i848 and i865 intel chipsets on ASUS Mainboards. The ASUS P4P800S-X (i848) and ASUS P4P800E delux (i865) have much the same features but price difference is considerable ie. P4P800S-X (i848) = $68...

1) 240W PSU is realy working hard to supply that G/C and the volts to it would be dropping as the load varies - could reduce performance or crash the GC/PC. Remember that if the PSU fails ie. shorts or burns out it could destroy your PC through "voltage spike". 2) There's heaps of free software...

CPU @ one thousand four hundred volts (1,400V), that's a little bit high. :D

I'am not right up on the new games out now, but I thought that a 6600GT is quite a powerful G/C to run games with a AMD 3500+ CPU as long as you don't have all the games settings at max and resolutions not too high.

Does WinXP Home CD have the repair option as Pro does? :D

Q1: What about the default voltage to the ram modules - is the DDR3200 ram volts the same as DDR 2100/2700? Q2: Does the voltage requirements vary with brand and better quality types when not overclocking? Thanks,

Question: 8O If you were to instal DDR3200 memory into a eg. ASUS MB that is designed originally for DDR2100 or 2700 memory, would the DDR3200 just automatically underclock/would not fit/not boot/cause errors? Other Specs - Intel P4 2.4GHZ 533 FSB CPU/WinXP. Thanks :)

CPU - P4 Northwood 2.4GHz 533FSB Sock 478 MB - 533 FSB :? Question to people who know or have done this before - Can a BIOS update usually increase a MB FSB capacity from 533 to 800 FSB :?: Ie. so that I can instal a P4 800 FSB Sock 478 Northwood or Prescott CPU. Thanks,

98 and ME. Definitely not 95. Thanks,

Thanks the GF4 4200TI is faster :wink:

Q: Does WinXP use/need more CPU resources than 9X - ie. if you had a AMD XP 64 3500+ CPU in a PC running games with a 9X OS 512mb ram, would the framerates drop a little or game run slower if you uninstalled 9X and installed XP with the same amount of ram?

As a "general rule", how much faster would a GF6600GT 128 be over a GF4 4200TI 128? Thanks,

Q:1 What is the Max safe operating temp for the current Athlon XP 64 3200/3500+ S939 CPU's? Q2: What is temp that the CPU automatically underclocks - and does it underclock or shut down when it reaches this temp? Thanks,
